ABOUT ME

I like to learn a lot, everything. It's important for me to evolve. And to have fun while doing that.

PHILOSOPHY

"Do one thing every day that scares you" ... and you must hear the rest of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfq_A8nXMsQ .
I also believe that if I am nice to others, it'll pay back; most probably (call me selfish if you like)!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend once told me that he would be afraid to let unknown people to stay in his house. To that my answer was and still is: "The total value of things in my apartment is much less than how much I value the trust among us humans."

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was first exposed to couch surfing when my friends and I hitchhiked around Europe in 2005, and I started couch hosting in Riga right after. I've experienced both---getting an average of twenty requests a day while living in Paris and being happy if I even got five requests a year in Waterloo---but it has always been pleasure rediscovering my cities with together with my visitors. And my hosts, Wow, it's nearly impossible to recall all the great times they have given me. Absolutely wonderful!

教，学，和分享

We could share some nice food, something with Latvian twist, hopefully. And then maybe a jamming session. I would teach how not to play guitar, because I have almost no clue myself ;)

I would like to learn some skills of video creation. So far the only video I shot by myself is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlaQB7MA2Eg
