ABOUT ME
I have travelled with my bicycle 5 years, I settled down in Latvia (in february) 2017 where I live now with my wife and our 2 small children.
I enjoy a simple life in the peaceful Latvia.
I am not the man who speaks a lot but I like meeting people to share life's experiences.
I try as much as possible not to take part in the consumerist society and to do the things by myself.
I prefer to hosts cyclists and long time travellers.
Before to send me a request to stay, I invite you to read my profile, it will take you only 2 minutes of your time.
PLEASE READ BEFORE COUCHSURFING AT MY PLACE OR HOSTING ME!!!
Clear expectations of host and couchsurfers prevent misunderstanding ;-)
COUCHSURFERS:
Read accommodation page !
CS will sleep in our garden, not in our flat.
I expect from the guests that they respect the place where they will stay.
HOSTS:
In exchange of sleeping and eating at your place I share with you my stories of travelling, I can bake bread/cake, pizza, help in the household, in the garden, on a farm or anywhere you need me ... just ask me for a favour.
That's my personal way to say THANK YOU for your hospitality ... "what goes around, comes around"
Please write references after staying/hosting
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy the life

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
To join Couchsurfing
When I was 5 years old, I went alone by train from my home town to Paris to see Santa Claus, in July
Teach, Learn, Share
I would like to speak the languages from the countries I visit. It can only be a dream but I try to learn some words and sentences that can be usefull. It helps a lot already to contact the locals in their language and it sometimes opens doors ...
I can show you how to bake bread, it is very easy but takes a bit time
I want to share with my guests some latvian culture. Do not worry, it is not boring at all
What I Can Share with Hosts
If I have time and if there is a oven, I can bake bread or a cake
My stories from a 5 years nomad's life
