CURRENT MISSION

Fascinated by the North of Europe (Scandinavia and Germany), I want to know the culture of these nations and meet a lot of people from there...but even from all other countries in the world :)

ABOUT ME

I think I'm a nice, sociable, sensitive and creative person. I like good company and to have fun with friends and am especially interested in multiculturality and in expanding my horizon far beyond my national borders.

PHILOSOPHY

Accept the complexity of reality...not simplify it! Simplification is often a dangerous mistification. Complexity is made up of differences and similarities...between people, countries, cultures. You need to know them not to reduce world's marvellous complexity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Till now I haven't had any experience in the Couchsurfing community...but want to make a lot from now on. :) I'd like to have any kind of cs expeince: be hosted, host someone or just have a walk and a talk with a "friend not yet met" who comes from somewhere very far.

Interests

My main interest is in music...particularly 'classical' music. But I like also other types of music. Then I'm interested in all kinds of art and am particularly sensible to environmental, ecological matters. And I do love nature...especially the woods and the mountains...but also the sea, that is the place where I was born ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Estonia for a European workshop me and some friends were walking to a pub, but we took the wrong way and walked for more than an hour into the woods. Extreme dark and solitude! Then we reached the russian border (!) and we find police! :S But they were kind and drive us to the pub :D
