I am an IT person passionate for non-virtual experience outside of the work hours. I am both curious and introvert, so I need an excuse to chat with strange people - showing my hometown is a great "excuse" for new meetings! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love my small hometown Tartu because of its hidden charming places and rich underground culture. At the same time I love to travel around the world to meet new cultures and ideologies. It seems like Couchsurfing can give me a little bit of outside-of-estonia experience, which I hope to find here.
