Overview
About Me
So many things... Where should I begin?
I am a bit of a healthy nut. Meaning that I try to live as healthy as possible - no drinking, no smoking and healthy eating.
I do try to exercise as much as possible, but I see a lot of space for improvement there since I can be as lazy as I am active. :D
I am quite outgoing and communicative person. I try to live my life with one foot in every direction and with that I mean that I try to keep my mind open for what ever comes my way... So, I can talk just about anything!
I guess you could say I live by saying "Jack of all trades, master of none,
though oftentimes better than master of one." :)
For now, sadly I can't host anyone, because of my living circumstances. However when the chance will strike I shan't hesitate to give back to community and host somebody.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I see Couchsurfing as a wonderful chance to combine practical and fun. Practical beeing opportunity to sleep at home comfort and fun beeing the part where you can learn about culture, from the perspective of the person you are staying with. And as well share stories and life experiences!

Music, Movies, and Books
Music
Growing up I've gone through different periods of my life. In every period of my life I have been subscribing to different genre. And now I am, more or less in point where I can listen to nearly everything.
Movies
Altho I do enjoy all types of movies from different genres. I still feel like, I prefer documentaries over big screen wonders
Books
Reading as a hobby I have discovered relatively recently. So the list of the books I have read is, as well relatively short.
However, from what I have read 3 books really stand out:
George Orwell - Animal Farm
George Orwell - 1984
Oskar Wilde - Plays
And now I am reading:
Leo Tolstoy- Resurrection
Louis Fischer - Ghandi, His life and message for the world
Thomas De Quincey - Confession of an English opium Eater
The Philosophy of Aristotle
Great dialogs of Plato
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Not counting that I've managed to survive till 21 (now closing to 22) I would have to say my hitchhike trip from Latvija to Spain, Barcelona which was over 3k Kilometer.
This not only allowed me to observe myself in different situations, that I wouldn't necessary encounter in my daily life, but also gave me some valuable lessons. Such as - Patience is virtue.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach
I don't really feel like I have that many things to teach, that is, if of course you don't count documentaries that I've seen. haha! :D
Learn
I do believe I still have great many things to learn from people around me and world in general.
Share
And when it comes to sharing, I can share my only treasure - experience. Experience, that I have collected in the past 21 years of my life. This contains
