AlbinaRushenberg

My description is : Hey! I'm Albina, and I'm 18 years old. I was born and raised in Tallinn, Estonia. Growing up here has been pretty cool – it's like having one foot in this ancient, fairytale-like Old Town with cobblestone streets, and the other in a super digital, startup-friendly city. I just graduated from high school last spring, and honestly, I'm in that "figuring it out" phase. Right now, I'm taking a gap year, working part-time at a cozy little café in the Kalamaja district (the best pastries, by the way!). I'm saving up money and trying to decide if I want to study graphic design or cultural anthropology at university next year. My life is basically a mix of long, dark winters spent reading books and creating digital art, and magical, endless summer nights by the Baltic Sea with my friends.

Like & Dislike

I like: Oh, there's so much! First of all, my friends. Our little squad is everything. We love exploring abandoned Soviet-era buildings (it's a whole vibe here) and then going for a swim in the lake. Music festivals! Especially the ones in Estonia during summer, like Intsikurmu or Positivus in Latvia. It feels like the whole country is celebrating the light.

I don't like: Ugh, let's see. The darkness in winter – I mean, I'm used to it, but sometimes in November and December, when it gets dark at 3 PM, it can feel really heavy and draining. Small-town mentality. Sometimes Estonia feels so small, and everyone seems to know everyone's business. I crave a bit more anonymity sometimes. Rude tourists in the Old Town who don't respect our city
