ABOUT ME

Ah, so originally I am from Latvia, but recently I moved to London to study fine art. Trying to live my bohemian, artist dream. I rather hang out and chill with friends in the evening and listen to music or watch a movie, than go roaming clubs. Bars are a different story thou.
As you would expect museums, galleries and private views are part of my everyday life, so that is the bit of the city I have managed to become most familiar with.
I am a vegetarian, like animals and am terrified by children.

PHILOSOPHY

I will be the first one to try to drag everyone outside to events and mainly to have new and old experiences, just to enjoy life while and how it's possible and just keep on going - never to give up. One might wonder if this is true when right now I'm so focused on developing my artistic practice and getting on with my studies, but that is my true passion and experience I have been looking for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to offer my couch, but right now I have no extra space for surfers. :(
It is surfing for me them

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have both hosted and surfed - always a good time. But most time spent hanging out with couchsurfers hosted by my friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

think this is yet to come

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach others the basics of painting or help understanding the contemporary art concepts to the ones who go into a modern art gallery and can't figure out what the hell they're looking at.
