The small island of [[Liivakari]] belongs to Kakumäe, located near Cape Kakumäe.
It is also the home town of the stunning model Johanna Liva who frequently models for many top fashion houses like Alexander Mcqueen. At the current moment in time she has stopped modelling to continue with her studies in Estonia. She is renound for her great looks,personality and friendship. At the current time she is followed by people around the world in particular the UK where she is followed on Facebook by approximately 500 people. In the future Johanna is hoping to finish her studies in Estonia and then move to London to carry on with her modelling career and meet with many of her UK followers. In her spare time Johanna likes listening to music and attending various football matches where her favourite player a young 17 old plays. She had often admitted that "Just the way you are" by Bruno Mars is her favourite song however she also likes "dub my disco" "dont call me baby" "aNYway" & "Put Your Hands On Me". Although Johanna has done some good things she can be known for her "bad girl" reputation after several scandals on the internet in particular on skype. Although this view is portrayed by some of the local press i personally feel this is wrong as having met her i am able to see what she is really like and the image that is portrayed by the media is not what she's really like. <ref>[http://www.tallinn.ee/est/g2677s45500 Tallinn in numbers] 2008</ref>
