About Me

ABOUT ME

I live in Estonia, in a city called Tartu - it has about 100 000 people. I have bachelors degree in physical therapy. I graduated 2008 and realized that this is not what I would like to do for living. Right now I´m still in search for my perfect job but I am in sales and so far I like it. I have been selling books door to door 4 summers in Canada. It helped me to pay for my college back home. I love to travel - I have been 9 times in the States and 4 times in Canada. I really love North-America - people are so friendly and kind. I consider myself as a friendly and outgoing person - I love to hang out with my friends and I like to do sports like aerobics or running.
I love to travel and meet new people ! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Never quit !
That`s my favourite quote:
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people. It is really interesting.
I could go and stay in a hotel or airbnb and I do as well.
But I love the opportunity to talk to someone who has actually lived in the city that I am visiting . That way I gain much more knowledge from the visit then exploring the country on my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Saskatchewan, Canada I had two awesome experiences with couchsurfing - found a place to stay for two weeks in Lloydminster through this site and for three weeks in Humboldt (we had our own camper where we stayed - it was great!). Even though we were never around - as me and my boyfriend were working 6 days a week it was so nice of these guys to let us stay there for so long. Next time we try not to work so hard and actually try to do some more sightseeing in different places. :)
