About Me

Although originally I'm from Latvia, I'm currently on my fourth year of Media & Marketing studies in The Netherlands. I recently finished my internship in London which was a great experience. Looking forward to gain new experiences and get to know different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always loved seeing new places and meeting new people. Considering, I'm currently still a student, but willing to travel then I'd have to do it on a budget. In my opinion couchsurfing enables to connect with other people and provides more natural insight in different cultures and lifestyles. What is more, it makes it possible to travel on budget which is just great.

Interests

I'm really passionate about photography, creative advertising, graphic design. I also love to do a lot of sports especially fitness. I love listening to different kind, but good music. And of course movies, I also love watching movies that have deeper message and interesting plot twists.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know how amazing it is, but what was stressful indeed was me running around London and handing out my resumes in order to secure an internship position one week prior the start of the internship. Eventually I managed to get the internship. :)
