Overview
About Me
It's been over two years now since I left behind my life in Tallinn, Estonia, and came to Newcastle, UK, to study Media and Communications with a brave hope to become the best version of journalist and tackle erroneous perceptions, challenge preconceived notions and change established attitudes. Newcastle is a somewhat special story in my life, and I would be happy to tell you why when we meet in person. Now I embark on journey at any convenient opportunity, but when I can't, I'm glad to help the like-minded people to the best of my ability. I'm a friendly, easy-going, cheerful, enthusiastic and adventurous person with deep interest in foreign languages and cultures. A keen traveler, an eager jogger, a diligent polyglot, a wine lover and a movie buff. I also do some organisational work for our International Society and some voluntary work with Rotaract Club of Tyneside, so I'm sure we would always have an interesting story/perspective/idea to discuss. I absolutely love learning new things and getting new experience and strive to broaden my horizons in every possible direction.
Philosophy:
1. Life's for sharing.
2. Your main rival is always yourself.
3. Be kind - kindness disarms most people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Traveled all around Israel at the age of 7!
Teach, Learn, Share
Can teach you a bit of Russian if you will, tell how it feels like to be a foreign student in Britain, show where on map Estonia is and narrate about this beautiful tiny country.
Would be glad to practice my poor German, French and Italian and learn from those who play guitar.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Would be happy to share meals and some traveling experience, and sign along to the guitar (I have one) if you play (I can only play a few things).
