Hello!

I’m Katrin. I live in Tallinn, which is located on the northern coast of Estonia.

I am an Earth person :) I'm a true fan of planet Earth. I admire its diversity - from light to darkness and all of the shades in between.

I like to spend my time outdoors being in nature. I enjoy outdoor swimming, cross-country skiing through the silent frozen forests, evenings by an outside firepit.

I enjoy photography, art, dance, poetry, cinema, the art of perfumery, pottery, ceramics, glass, design of everyday objects. I love stationery. I'm interested in botany and in essential oils.

I used to collect postage stamps. I still have a particular interest in pre-1940 stamps and engraved (esp. intaglio prints) stamps. I admire an artwork of master engravers like Czesław Słania, Majvor Franzén, Albert Decaris and many others.

I'm also interested in history. My favourite time period is the beginning of the eightteenth century up to the 1950s-1960s.
