We are small but we are wild!

Hello! At first I'm sorry about my english, as I'm not using this language a lot I'm a bit rusty. My name is Ave and I've been thinking for a long time to start writing a blog. I am 26 years old and when I think of my life, I think it's been more adeventurous than some soap opera. I live in a small country - Estonia. The outside world don't know a lot of us but even if we are small here, we have so may cool things to share with other world. We have 4 seasons here - spring, summer, autumn, winter, and all these season have their own charm and they offer us a lot of acitivities to do. This blog is made to show you all how cool is to live in Estonia and I hope at least some of you start to think of a trip here :).

I have planned a lot of posts about our country so in this post I'll try to concentrate on myself. So, I have a lot of hobbies because of my personality. I am a scorpio, so my life has to offer me a lot of adventures and extremes. My favorite hobby is motorcycle ride. At summer 2017 I finally made my motorcycle license. It's been my dream since I was a kid, strange dream for a girl, isn't it? :) I earned some money and bought my own first motocycle, Suzuki SV 650. It is great motocycle but I allready want a new one, it's like a disease :D

My next favorite hobby is winterswimming. This is one plus of Estonia, we can do it here because we have winters. This hobby started with one event in a small willage called Järva-Jaani. It was -10 degrees, there were 12 different saunas including smoke sauna built in a fire truck, Finnish sauna, barrel sauna (big barrel filled with hot water). The weather was incredible, we were beside little lake and all the trees were frost. So, then it started. We took our clothes off (I'll remind that it was -10 degrees outside) and jump into water. It was so cold but yet it was so cool. The footwear were sticking to the ice because it was so cold. After going to the water we jumped info hot barrel sauna. In there we were drinking hot tea from thermos and that was the moment when I realised how mutch nature has given us. But I'll tell you more about winterswimming in my next posts.

It's me coming out of the water :)

I described the two of my favorite hobbies before. Also I am getting a Master's Degree in Information Science, I work in a logistics company as a purchase manager and I promote one nightclub in Tallinn. I go to gym for four times a week and also I like to do handicraft. There is many things more that I do with my free time but to not make this post too long I'll write about those thing separately in my next posts. Also I will write about bicycle trips we had, motocycle trips we had, great motorcycle events in Estonia and so on.

I hope it was interesting to read about me :).
