Hey! I’m Donya, I’m 18, and I’m from Tallinn, Estonia. You might need a map for that one — it’s a small but really pretty country in Northern Europe, right next to the Baltic Sea. I live in the Tallinn’s Telliskivi creative area, which is full of street art and cool cafes. Right now, I’m finishing up high school and working part-time at a little vintage shop in the Old Town. My life is a mix of old Estonian forests, digital stuff, and dreaming about warmer places. I speak English, and I love meeting travelers who get lost in our city.

I’m absolutely obsessed with dark, rainy autumn days when I can put on a big scarf, grab a matcha latte, and go thrifting. I love taking grainy photos with my old digital camera, especially of foggy sunrises by the sea. Music is my whole life — I listen to everything from 90s hip-hop to Estonian indie pop.

The most personal thing. Sometimes I set up the camera, but don't turn on the stream. I just look at myself through the lens and try out different facial expressions and poses. I do it very slowly and I'm embarrassed even by myself. I never save these notes.
