Biography Hey! I'm Joella, an 18-year-old from Tallinn, Estonia. I just finished high school last spring and I'm currently in my "gap year" – trying to figure out what comes next. I live with my mom and my younger brother, Leo, in one of those cool old wooden houses in Kalamaja. My whole life is this mix of Estonian calmness and a weird global vibe I get from the internet. I'm fluent in Estonian, English, and I can handle Russian okay-ish (thanks, school!). I love that Estonia is my home – the forests, the sea, the weirdly beautiful singing festivals – but sometimes I feel like I don't fully fit in *or* stand out. Right now, I'm working part-time at a cozy bookstore/café in the Old Town, which is perfect because I get to be around books and people-watch. I'm also taking an online graphic design course, which is super fun!
