About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to wake up before 8 a.m. Seriously.

ABOUT ME

I was halfway through med school in Estonian when I decided that all those books can wait another year while I go on exploring this planet.

All in all I'm just a person who finds it impossible to write "personal statements". That's why I always write them drunk. And that's why some of the following may not make much sense. Consider yourself warned.

PHILOSOPHY

"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." - Hunter S. Thompson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've got "Don't panic" written in shiny letters on my forehead?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfing:
A hitch-hiking trip around Europe.
Backpacking in South America.

Some meetings here and there on they way.

Having drinks with CSers in my hometown Tartu.

Witnessing 'The Change' (CS->C$)

Interests

I am able to create sounds on a guitar, a piano, a flute or an accordion and visual noise with anything that leaves a mark. Yoga, eastern philosophies, meditation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: "The master and Margarita"

Movies: documentaries and independent cinema. Jarmusch. Aronofsky. Õunpuu. Tarantino. French new wave. Documentaries. Let's say, I'm not very keen on romantic comedies or nonsense violence/action movies.

Music: Currently, I am discovering the wonderful world of brazilian music - Elis Regina, 3 na massa, Ave Sangria, Caetano Veloso, Chico Buarque, Adriana Calcanhoto, Maria Rita, Lo Borges and many more. Nowadays, discovering argentinian tango. In general, always on the lookout for new stuff and mainly listening the music people around me are into.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Catacombes in Paris, light-trapping for insects with a russian orthodox priest in the tropical rainforest, a few lucid dreaming experiences, hearing my friends jam together.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am struggling to learn some juggling (and I can teach the little I know).

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Russian Federation, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom
