ABOUT ME

Back in Estonia now... Currently writing my Master Thesis in the Estonian Academy of Arts (Architecture department) and working as a landscape architect/planner. I have a great sense of humor (kind of sarcastic), I'm outgoing and friendly and not picky when it comes to a couch.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your dream. Be tolerant and grateful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had 2 CS experiences so far, both good - one in Austin, TX and another one in Astoria, Queens, NY.

Interests

I love music (don't we all) - I can play the violin, piano and guitar but my to-do list has base guitar in it (that's what I'd like to learn). I'm very tolerant when it comes to music genres but the favorites are indie, electronic, rock (Queen), and almost everything that came from Motown, good old school stuff - I love to dance to older music.

In addition to architecture and landscape architecture (that is my profession) I'm highly interested in graphic design and photography (especially building interiors).

I'm also interested (and good at) in planning trips.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everything in America, actually. As the American city is so different from European ones I am amazed every time I visit a new place in the States. The latest shock (in a good way) was Venice, California. That place is a PARADISE.
More love goes to Austin which surprised me with its liberality and super warm weather in November.
New York, of course, always keeps me excited and offers something new every time I visit it.
Detroit - lovely contrasts. If you're brave enough and have more people traveling with you, you should definitely go and visit the more and less abandoned areas there. It's so worth it!
