About Me

Hey!
I can meet up or share some tips what to see or what to do in Tallinn/Estonia. And my advices would be more about culture (museums) and nature. Just leave a message :)

ABOUT ME

I work as a project manager at one local museum, mainly dealing with exhibition projects. I am into in culture and art mediation, I like to find out how to make people to see world and themselves from different angles. The environment of the good exhibitions can make you to catch sight of things you´ve never notice before and helps to combine logic and creativity to make your life more exciting and happier. at least I think it is so.

I am married and have a teenager daughter.

I am not active clubber/pubber unless there's a good concert or event there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The was a longer pause since we got a child who has suddenly turned into teenager with own space and time needs.
