About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn, travel, get to know myself.

ABOUT ME

I am a happy person, who laughs a lot. I always find something to enjoy. At the moment I am a Graduate student of Speech Terapy in the University of Tartu. The education helps me to understand myself and through myself also everyone else a bit better. I am passionate about my studies and jet get itchy feet and can`t wait to go and explore the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Ahimsa paramo dharmab!

"All human knowledge is human: it is mixed with our errors, our prejudices, our dreams, and our hopes: that all we can do is to grope for truth even though it is beyond our reach." (Karl Popper)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I help people understand what Estonia and Estonians are like and also people who are planning to come to Estonia.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed my first couches in Brussels, an unforgettable trip that changed the way I look at life. The wonderful people who opened up their homes to me and my friend made me realize what CS is really about. That was when I fell in love with the project.
Since then I have met a lot of surfers. Showing people around my hometown has given me new ways of looking at the city, myself and Estonians. Also a lot of conversations that have given bread to many thoughts on myself, travelling, life in general and much more. I feel like I grow a bit with every CS experience and I am grateful for all of them.

Interests

I love reading, the sea, tea, going for long walks, getting to know new people, making people laugh, wondering around, getting lost on purpose, doing Pilates, also attempting to do yoga and all types of dancing and experiencing new things.
