About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"growing wings starting from the backbone"

ABOUT ME

Im kinda like that guy from Garden State, except for the antidepressants and the guy part. But in the sense that Im waking from a long dream, yes.

One year ago packed my bags, left Estonia and returned to what feels like my home- Portugal.

Sometimes thoughtful, sometimes love to communicate with people, have fun, meet people who move me. Yes, thats the second mission, to be moved, shaken by people around me.

And walk, walk , walk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking on a mountain road in the dark, while half of the mountain was still glowing from the forest fire.

Teach, Learn, Share

First advice I got upon arriving to Mozambique:
When you get angry then dont scream at people. Go and kick a tree, the tree wont complain.
You will not change Africa but Africa will change you!
