About Me

I am 23 student and a personal trainer and a life-enthusiast from Latvia, Riga. Currently studying outdoor adventure education in Chichester, UK.

I am usually quite calm. And easy going I can enjoy working or researching something by myself for long periods of time, but when in challenged racing playing basketball, in the outdoors, going for a adventure, having a discussion I become hugely energetic.

I try to be open minded. I like the quote Strong Opinions, Weakly Held. I have beliefs about the world but they are not cemented and am willing to change my mind.

I am interested in how thing and the world works - I am interested in thing in profound level. no fluff and puff, - it just doesn’t work.
"rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness, give me truth" Henry David Thoreau

I have studied physical training in uni, and training in itself is a big part of my life. I like different kind of activities sports and competitions. I have semi professionally trained in cycling , doing crossfit, power lifting. then indoor rowing and arm-wrestling.
Enjoy many outdoor activities, Like hiking, cycling, climbing and swimming. kayaking. running. Winter ice swimming.

On to do list: Paragliding, sky diving, free diving, Mountain climbing, big wave surfing. polar bear hike trip.

I am also quite interested in technology. I like to disassemble and put back together different kinds of
devices, Compere and see which is he best one read about newest useful gadgets. Although in few last years i haven't been as much interested in technology as I have been before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because i want to see the world, meet other people see how different or the same other cultures are. And to learn of my own culture- with no other comparisons it is hard to tell what is happening in the first place.

Interests

I am profoundly interested in things at a deep level. I am interested at the principles of how the world works: be it psycology, training, politics, or mechanics.
