Stand-up comedian Liisel Nelis spoke in an interview about her relationship with actor Jan Uuspõllu, with whom she has now officially started cohabiting. The cohabitation of the two creative personalities began on Uuspõllu's initiative, which Nelis herself acknowledges with a smile.

"He wanted to," Nelis said quite candidly when the conversation turned to moving in together. According to the woman, she was not the one who rushed to take the relationship to the next level.

During the interview, Nelis held nothing back on any topic, whether it was the age difference between the couple, the everyday reality of cohabitation, or light-hearted jokes about swapping partners between men and women. "I swap partners even faster than Jan!" she quipped in the interview, displaying the sharp wit that comes from her stand-up comedian nature.

The conversation took place in Haruu House, a new trendy venue in Tallinn's Telliskivi district, where matcha lattes were also served. The discussion also covered manifestations, "the right frequencies" and the magic of second-hand shopping-topics that speak to Nelis's broader life philosophy.

Liisel Nelis is known to Estonian audiences primarily for her sharp-tongued stand-up comedy, and her relationship with the older-generation actor Jan Uuspõllu has attracted public attention for some time now.
