Overview
About Me
I am an Estonian from a Russian speaking family. I've graduated from an international school full of idealism and amazing people, and now pursuing y studies in Russian philology in Estonian city of Tartu.
I have an aesthetic outlook on the world and enjoy getting to know people and their life perceptions.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Thanks to Couchsurfing new places one visits become more vivid and special, because they get connected to a real person that lives there. Traveling without locals feels half-empty to me.
