About Me

Hi! Finding difficult to describe myself as many people I assume does..but gonna try to come up with something..let's than start from the begginning of my journey..my childhood I was spending in remote country side area(nearest village with a store and school is located 15km away from my childhood home) with 5 brothers and 1 sister by my side, since that time I remember myself as being very curious about the world, but my family couldn't afford to go for a day trips inside of our country whatsoever and sports was a big part of having opportunity to see behind the village borders where I spend my first part of my life.. after finishing the primary school in my village at age 15 I moved to Capital city Riga to study microelectronics, it felt like a whole new world to me, it was a challenge from a day one, today clearly remembering myself not being able to ask a time to a stranger on a streets or being anxious to take a public transport, it was very overwhelming and I was and still partly am a very shy boy from a country side..but in the same time it all felt like a dream, to be out there to soak experiences, get to know people with way different views to a life than I experienced ever before..I didn't feel like a black sheep that much anymore.
A lot of bumpy roads since then till the present time, quite a lot mental challanges I have been facing all life long (like most of us) and only recently, like few years ago I become aware about such a thing as a mental health.
I strongly believe that traveling and getting to know people around a world and hear their stories can help you to reveal your own inner peace, strength and some understanding of this universe..that's what I'm trying to do whenever I have some a bit of a time, to discover the world while discovering myself..
At this point I do love photography, partly making living from it, crafting my skills day by day, I do love reading a books, to learn from them, I do love listen to a different type of stories from painful love adventures till unforgettable experiences whatever you are open to share with me, I would be honored to listen. I can spend weeks by the nature, just listening to birds and piano, as much as I like to feel like a part of the nature just as much I do love to have fun time with my friends (or someone I just have met) by visiting a jazz concert or having a walk through the nightly city to please my eyes with the beauty of architecture and lights what lays over a massive buildings.
I hope this short, chaotic story can give you some idea of what spirit I have. Hope to you see you soon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you all about the photography, from editing till how I do/plan my shoots..I can help you practice a handstand, pretty knowledgeable about body exercises, can teach you some basics and practice yoga/meditation together. Can share some odd stories from country what used to a part of ex Soviet union. I would love to listen your stories and tell my own, but even more I would like to create a memories with you and we can share a great time laughs and even a tear together.
Would love to learn or experience what ever you would like to share with me. Overall I'm very open-minded and easy going person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to spend time with you /your friends also if you are busy or not in the mood I deeply respect that and wouldn't even make you notice that I'm staying on your couch. I can be a part of the group and have fun or I can be silent and not noticable.. I very much enjoy both setups.
