About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find the truth... and then enjoy life.

ABOUT ME

Nice, simple guy from Latvia. Open minded, I would like to make friends from all countries and nationalities. I like travelling a lot. If I could I would travel the whole world. Don't smoke, not into alcohol, I much rather prefer cookies with Linden tee. Currently studying PhD in Biomedical Engineering. I can speak fluently in English, Russian, and Latvian, but I have completely forgotten German.

PHILOSOPHY

I do not need any religions to know what is good and what is bad. Every one of us knows that and there is no excuse of doing the wrong things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few people have stayed at my place and I have couchsurfed in Belgium.

Interests

I love travelling, who doesn't? I also like all kinds of sport and leisure activities. My new passion is street gymnastics AKA calisthenics. I like singing in choir, play a little bit of guitar and like dancing salsa. The only thing I do not like is sitting and doing nothing, which is just too boring. I do not have any favourite topics. I am interesting in sport, science, music, technology and everything else, not really interested in politics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 12 years old I already had a break of the voice so the music teacher send me not to elementary school choir but to secondary school choir and put me behind of all older singers to let them hear the correct notes. I am very proud of that.

Teach, Learn, Share

1) In Latvia it is very hard to hitchhike for a guy. You should hitchhike with a girl or look very nice and innocent with a big travel bag.

2) Always have with you first aid plastic gloves and clean handkerchief close to you. One night I was going out for beer with some Slovakian guy. All was OK until he broke the bottle of beer and deeply cut his finger and then I had to help him out. Be always prepared!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Latvian candies, I can bet that their as good as Swiss chocolate.
