Groups I Belong ToCouch Information
Couch Available: Maybe Preferred Gender: Any Max Surfers Per Night: 2
Shared Sleeping Surface: No Shared Room: DependsWell, the couch is in a separate room. Macchu (the cat), might come and sleep with you though, but we can always close the door...and there's also a kind of couch in the living room. ***First thing:
If you already have a couch but want to meet up, I'm always up for a drink, sharing stories and meeting fellow travellers, so don´t hesitate to get in touch.
I've put "Maybe" on my couch though, as sometimes I might be able to host, especially if you seem like someone I would surely want to meet (even if most of the time I'd be more available for coffee and meeting up, as I just started on my new job, and am in the middle of very busy times). I work shifts, early mornings, evenings and nights, so am not always around, and if at home, I pretty much tend to sleep. Otherwise, just message me here and I'll get back to you quickly with an answer.
I live a short walk away from the very centre, or a couple of stops by metro, if you prefer. I can show you around (let's say that we can discover together, as I'm not a real "toulousaing"!). I like to host people when I have time to spend with them, so, let's hope you'll come when I have my days off.
I'm working strange hours, so sometimes wake up at 4.30AM, sometimes go to bed at 8.00AM, sometimes work at nights (on those days I prefer not to host).
Attention allergics: I've got a cat (Macchu)...he's adorable though!
I'll probably have less time and energy for hosting now, with all the work and things, but, I still hope to see you soon! Friends (143)

Personal DescriptionI'm continuously learning new things about myself...
Some things I have learned so far:
I'm restless, which gives me the urge to be on the move ;
I feel like a rootless tree, which makes me wonder, wander and search ;
I'm impulsive, so I can "take off and go" whenever ;
On the other hand I like stability : I like to feel protected and loved, to be secure ;
I leave everything to the very last minute (really, everything) ;
I dream a lot ;
I have a vivid imagination ;
I think too much and my thought wanders on some strange roads ;
I have my opinions, and am very likely to protect them, but also can change my mind if someone can show me something from another angle ( I believe there is no such thing as the one and ultimate truth ) ;
I don't like stupidity and blind belief though ;
I like to learn about new things ;
I am very straightforward, and I tend to wait the same in return from other people, which sometimes makes my relationships difficult ;
I tend to over-worry and I can sometimes be a control-freak ;
I think that everything is possible ;
I'm a people's person, I like company ;
I fight for justice and fairness :
I find amazing the way how people connect to each-other, and on the other hand, how we are actually all alone in this world ;
Music heals my soul.
***I left Estonia behind in June 2007, quit my job as an editor, packed everything I own in 3 brown paper boxes (I discovered that there is not much), and everything I considered essential in my backpack to take with me...Why, you ask? I just didn't find a reason to stay, simple as that. Seeing the Tallinn sign slip past, I didn't know when I would be back.. and to be honest, I didn't really know where I was heading either. There was just something inside me, that said "Go!". And here I am, more than a year later, in Toulouse.
 Create your own visitor map!
How I Participate in CS2I'm spreading the word, hosting, surfing, helping where I can. And during all this, the essential: to have good times and share with all the FUNtastic people out there!
Camps:
Berlin Beach Camp '06 & '07
Vecumnieki Midsummer Camp in Latvia (Baiba's place)
Vama Veche Beach Camp in Romania '07
Weekly meetingsCouchSurfing ExperienceIt's been a few years now that I'm a member here in CS & also in HC, so I'm active in both.
I guess you can have more or less of an adequate overview from my profile. Every one of my experiences has been different, but special on its own way. CouchSurfing has helped me to understand: the world is my oyster!Intereststravelling! (surprising?), dreams (I see a lot of them, and like to discuss with people who feel a special connection with their dreams as well), !music!, languages (french!) & want to improve my spanish & non-existing portuguese, different cultures, reading (existentialism, beat-generation, poetry...anything really), oh and a CSer just recently got me into shiatsu! (thanks Claire!); photography, cinema, massage (want to improve), organic living, swimming, snowboarding, talking, sharing, playing-jamming on the guitar (learning it, slowly-slowly), singing, road-trips, camping, bonfires, bbqs, randomness, spontaneity, telling stories, listening stories, long mornings/afternoons in bed (?is that an interest?), people, connexions between people, psychology, life on the whole.Philosophy*Whatever you are, be a good one*
"Don't let your dreams be dreams" - Jack Johnson
I try not to forget what I dreamed about when I was still a kid...
*Live your life and let others live theirs*
Respect people, no matter how different their views are from yours, everyone is free to believe in what they consider the best for themselves (to the limit when their belief and actions start to harm others).
"A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes." - Mahatma Gandhi
Positive thinking! - a lot of work to do on that one. This is pretty much my goal at the moment. To learn to leave the negativity behind. It's all about how you live your life. I've understood, that everything follows the law of attraction - good sticks to good, and bad is a magnet for more bad. Simple as that. To live a well-balanced life, getting out the best I can from each experience.Music, Movies, BooksSIX FEET UNDER - probably the best series ever made. I can watch it over and over again. And I really enjoyed the first season of Californication as well. Now am watching Weeds. As you can see I've got hooked on some series....
About other MusicMoviesBooks: yes, please! There are really too many..(I just had a long list here, but I deleted everything, my profile was getting way too long!) We can share it all when you come over, listen, watch, discuss.Types of People I enjoyPeople With Soul. Honest and open-minded people, who don't set up restrictions, what can be done and what cant. Who live their life at the same time letting live the others, considering, that all people are not quite the same. People, who try not to judge people without being in their shoes. People who know how to have fun, who dont hurt others feelings (or at least try not to) and who dont play tricky games. And: I really can't stand hypocrisy.
"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind" A. Lincoln
I've always been straightforward, some people get scared from it, some appreciate...I belong to the group that appreciates it. I think that it makes life/human relations much easier, or if not, at least things are clear. I believe that the truth will always come to the daylight one day, so why hide or lie? Let's keep it simple.Teach, Learn, ShareI have so many more things to learn than to teach... Anyone up to teaching me guitar? Or spinning pois? Cooking tips? Massage? Or..anything really!
Well, I can teach estonian! Or give some tips about hitchhiking - let's share.One Amazing Thing I've Seen or DoneIt seems that...I was born to this world! (though, dont remember much about it). Birth (but also death...) are the most "miraculous" things in this world, I think. Aaah, actually all the world is just amazing! Every day I wonder about the miracle of life, the beauty & mystery of it.
"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."
- Albert Einstein
There are so many "small things" in the world, that matter and can sometimes make the life worth living. I just wish that people would notice them more.

I must say that Marii is everywhere. Just click on a profile, look at some pictures and she might just pop out ! She is incredibly nice and fun to be with.

From Anna-Sofia Nieminen Tampere, Finland Apr 19 Positive She sent me a message quite randomly last autumn, to ask if I would like to have a coffee or something with her as we come from neighbor countries and both were living in Toulouse.

We didn't spend a lot of time together, because it was directly before and after a camp, but I definitely can say that they were friendly, trustworthy and interesting girls, I'll probably have to meet them again to say more :)
And they didn't burn down my flat when staying there alone! ;)
From Merike Salu Tallinn, Estonia Oct 2, 2006 Positive Very cool girl!
She has been in so many beautiful places and met lots of interesting people, so I think she can talk for hours (maybe even days) about her adventures :)
From Thomas Cull Burlington, United States Oct 1, 2006 Positive Marii hung out with me in Tallinn and kindly showed me around town and a bar or two. She is intelligent and great company, seek her out if you're in Tallinn.
From Giampiero Calabrese Ascoli Piceno, Italy Oct 1, 2006 Positive Hey she is cool, we spent a wonderful afternoon together, nice spots, delicious pancakes and interesting talks... and i cannot forget kopli experience, a big cool disco night even if she was tired, just great

From HuiPing Wong Hangzhou, China Sep 17, 2006 Positive Marii showed me around Tallinn when i visited. Through our conversations, i find her very friendly, intelligent and genuine. She is full of ideas on how to help others and it just shows she is a very kind and sincere person and a great tour guide too! Best of luck Marii! Hope to meet you again!
From Tea Tea Dubrovnik, Croatia Aug 23, 2006 Positive she is extremly positive girl......:))
From Helen Hallik Tallinn, Estonia Aug 15, 2006 Positive I have surfed her couch many times and vice versa. We always have a lot of fun:)
From Miha Barboric Ljubljana, Slovenia Aug 2, 2006 Positive What can I say. I probably gave her the worst CS experience ever, but she took it like a man. :) She was great help with the major flood that our flat experienced at the time of her stay here. Hopefully she still managed to have a good time in Ljubljana.
From Matus Buran Bratislava, Slovakia Jul 28, 2006 Positive they are friendly, funny, esygoing....just perfect guests:-) we went out together and chated bout lots of things....i tried to pick up some estonian words but it didnt work :-( anyway estonian watermelon flauvored vodka was one of the best ive ever had, thanx Marii
From KiwiAngela Mataro, Spain Jul 19, 2006 My fellow Rock Goddess. I met Marii at an impromptu CS meeting in Toulouse last year. She was kind and generous enough to host us all for a party at her home and once I saw her music collection I knew straight away this girl rocked! We later met a couple of times for coffee but this superstar made the supreme effort of coming up to Bordeaux for my Birthday Party and will I eternally love her to bits for it (i will hunt down your wallet thief, tie him/her to a chair and submit them to my singing. we all know that is the worst punishment ever) rock on girl. I hope to see you before you leave. x
