About Me

I'm a huge textile and sustainable fashion nerd. I can knit while walking or my eyes closed. Not kidding! It's one of my superpowers.

Love my job which is teaching arts and crafts to children and fashion in university.

I appreciate people with an open heart and kind thoughts. Be sincere, speak the truth with love and you'll win my heart.

I have rather a sharp sense of humour. Do not take it personally! It's never mean. It'll just give an extra spice to our days.

I love cats. Actually all the animals, but cat love has reached the whole new levels. It's more of an obsession. Clearly have thousand pictures about my cat Possu on my phone.

I'm a huge fan of self-learning. In 2011 moved to Norway without knowing any English or Norwegian. I was forced to learn English within a few weeks because I was actually studying in University.

I cycle daily. Even with rain and wind. Only if there's a lot of snow.. Almost never leaving home without my bike and golden helmet.

Not a huge fan of clubbing. Rather appreciate good company, wine and food outside, great live music with dancing and spontaneous trips.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my 2 years back in Estonia I have became a bit too comfortable. It would be easier to book a hostel room or a flat in Airbnb. It would also be a bit too boring. Through this Couchsurfing experience I'm hoping to open up to a new positive experiences and amazing people.
