About Me
ABOUT ME
First 19 years of my life I lived on an island called Hiiumaa. It´s my favorite place in the world. I still live there in summertime. Now I would like to call myself a free spirit. At least for a while :) I love travelling and meeting new people. This is like a drug to me and I think I can say I am addicted.
PHILOSOPHY
"Smile and laugh! Don´t spend too much time in front of the computer, come out and enjoy your live. Be open for different opportunities and people. Do not expect anything from others and do what you want. Listen to you inner voice, experience and do something new every day." Migel (From Uebanda- my favorite band)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think it is one of the best ways how to actually get to know the place. Do you know the feeling when you first arrive in the new town and you only see the facade of the houses and then slowly you start to see inside of the places? You start to feel the energy of the town and you find bars where all the locals go. Couchsurfing gives you opportunity to timetravel and see inside the places much faster. That is one of the reasons I like couchsurfing. Plus I never say no to food made by locals.
Interests
I love hiking and running. My true passion is travelling. I like to meet new people and see real life in different countries. When it is warm I enjoy sleeping outside in my sleepingbag and look the stars.
I danced in Estonian folk dance group for nine years, I think this has been my longest hobby. Dancing is still something what makes me feel happy. My new favorite is salsa for sure. It is so much fun ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I walked 100km along the coast of the island where I live. I was completely alone and it was eye-opening experience in many ways.
I hitchhiked with my friend on Balkans. Slept in the bushes and hiked in the rain. I had the most amazing time!!!
I lived 3 months in a car travelling around New Zealand. Challenge at the time, but a lot of good memories to look back to.
Teach, Learn, Share
There is some much to learn that I don´t even know where to start. I can teach you some basics about Estonian food and I would appriciate if you would cook something together with me from your home country.
