About Me

Dear travelling women and transgender people looking for a host in Estonia, welcome!

You will find me calm and friendly, reserved at first but eager to have conversations to learn and discover more about you. I am someone who is deeply influenced by music since early childhood but who changed their field to social sciences and activism later in life. I love modern art and nice underground alternative scenery. I practice both library tourism as well as mobility for protests for social causes. As I spend a lot of my work time in the virtual domain, travelling helps to balance this a lot. I am a vegan with political left feminist point of view.

As a guest, I´ll be having few expectations and demands, just a couch, quiet and a shower opportunity. I do not expect by default the host to spend time with me nor tour me around, but I'd be very grateful if you would choose to. I will also be an interesting conversation partner in the evening with a cup of coffee/tea. :)

As a host, I'm hospitable and understanding. No worries on your own punctuality, I really do not mind. You can stay for free up to one week maximum. If your stay is for a day or two, don't worry about meals, I'll help you out (but offer vegan dishes only). I've travelled enough myself to have a soft spot for travellers in short of resources. I host only one person at a time, no kids or teenagers. Unfortunately, my place is not accessible with a wheelchair, and there is no elevator. Also regrettably, no pets are allowed as a demand from my landlord.

I host women and genderqueer couchsurfers only. If you are a travelling (cis-) man, kindly avoid sending me requests, I will decline them, no exceptions. And I will mind if you try nevertheless because you never bothered to read the profile, go to a hotel.
