I used to study History and International Relations (still fascinated by the topics) and was sure I'd join the diplomatic field. After graduating and working a bit, I did a 180° turn towards my other passions instead and started studying Medicine. So here I am, torn between interests but certain in my love for exploring the horizons.

I was born into the spirit of freedom that had taken over Estonia in 1991, when it gained it's independence after the fall of Soviet Union. I have grown up together with my country, lived through the changes. If you are fascinated by Post-Soviet history, changes in society and politics in general, hit me up.

I'm also very science-minded, so if you love making fun of pseudoscience (I'm looking at you flat-earthers and anti-vaxxers) and if you are into dark and dry humor in general, I think we would get along splendidly.

PHILOSOPHY

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players,
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts.
