About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Personal and professional development.To experience something new every day.

ABOUT ME

I guess all about me won't fit in this box, but I think I can dance - at least I like to, I love reading and writing and meeting new people. I like my current friends too. Anyway, I'd love to work with people in my future life. That's why I studied PR. It combines my intrests. I think I'm friendly and many things said about Leos and single children are true in my case. But I guess you'll have to find out the rest about me yourself. I'm not too good at praising myself today:)

PHILOSOPHY

If I can't shine here, I'll do it somewhere else, where I'm understood better:)
And I try to teach myself to think first and say important things later not the other way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the idea of couchsurfing, but to be honest, I haven't really surfed or hosted for ages due to different personal reasons. Now again being in a place where I want to make new friends and get to know various people I plan to be better:)

Also I don't host just anyone at any time. I host when I know that I have the time and opportunity to really welcome someone to my home and city and help them have a positive experience. So don't be mad if I have to decline or won't answer in time. It's probably because I couldn't.

I don't expect beautiful lies about why I would be someone's ideal host but a bit more than one line long request of free bed. Perhaps mentioning something we have in common or at least introducing properly the surfer and his or her goals of visiting me and my city. Please take the time to do that if you want me to take the time to host you and if I can, I will. You can check out what my previous guests have to say about me;)

The same goes for surfing - I try to look for hosts who seem interesting and compatible with me. Who's profile makes me feel like we have something in common and other things to teach, learn and share. It doesn't mean we have to have the same age, background or hobbies. I believe that meeting different people enriches us all.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done a bit of everything - hosting, surfing, guiding, coffees etc

Interests

I like people (most and mostly:)), psychology and sociology, looooove singing and dancing but not so sure about singing in public. Writing is like a therapy to me and I do it a lot more than just 9 to 5. I like new experiences and adventures, testing myself in different new situations. And... how much time and patience do you have?:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amritsar, Golden temple night visit. Illegal swimming in a public pool at night with just a few friends. Climing on an elephant without any saddle. Falling in love with Warsaw old town. So so many small amasing moments... these are just some first ones that came to my mind.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I can teach you Estonian. Then you could be a rarity. Only about a million people speak it. We can share traveling experiences and thoughts on various topics of life. I'd like to learn more about different cultures and the ways world can work out. If you come at winter - you crazy person:) - I can take you skating and if you come at summer, I can prove to you that Estonia really is a nice place to visit. Perhaps I will also change your view of Estonians?
