About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To go on, never hesitate and look back, be active and open to everything new!!!

ABOUT ME

I am interested in different languages and cultures! I grew up in Tallinn, Estonia. Four years ago I left my country and went to France, where I did my EVS (European Voluntary Service) for 1 year, then moved to London for 1.5 years and worked as an au pair. After that I went to Germany and worked as a Comenius Assistant at a primary school! All this time I have been living with people who all came from different countries and it has always been great! I am back to living in Tallinn at the moment, working as a teacher and a trainer in the gym, loving both jobs and having an amazing time back home :)) I am always looking for any kinds of language tandems, so if you are interested, contact me asap!

PHILOSOPHY

The way you treat the world around you, the same you get back!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard about CS from my friends and I think it's a great opportunity! It gives you a chance not only to see different places but to meet other nice active people, to share your culture, to widen your horizons, to break prejudices!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met lots of couch surfers in my travels, always had very positive experience.
Unfortunately, I cannot host anyone at the moment, but I am ready to show you around.

Interests

Skiing! It's the best sport ever!
Dancing! Especially salsa! Doing it already for about 4 years and it is great!
Travelling, going camping, swimming, cooking and much much more!
