About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Only boring people get bored.

ABOUT ME

I do design and multimedia development (basically Flash animation/programming) at an ad agency Kosmodroms in Latvia (kosmodroms.lv)

Although i do some photography (edgarssturmanis.com) and hope making some installations soon too. I'm one of the team members of International Summer School of Photography (issp.lv) in Latvia.

I love nature and seeing nature, cycling, hitch-hiking. I'm vegetarian. In general I'm quite calm person and love good humor. I like to drink some beer or wine with friends, go camping, hiking or bicycling. I enjoy cooking & baking and growing some herbs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted twice via CouchSurfing and few times just meeting people looking for a couch. I've surfed 3 times till now. I just recently realized the power and beauty of CouchSurfing and once I've understood the idea I'm looking forward to have more better experience!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Best trip I've ever had is Latvia-Albania-Latvia. It includes rafting in Slovakia, hiking Slovenia mountains, enjoying Croatia islands and wine, cycling up and down the hill in Romania while it's raining and slippery, some Greece sweets and of course Albania's wild sea and nature.

Another one is traveling around Georgia; pool in the middle of mountains with water coming from hot springs, traditional hot bath, lots of home-made wine. The nature is also amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like experimenting in the kitchen!
