About Me

Disclaimer: I am often online for a bit when taking a little break from work. As often, I might not have the time or the energy to reply right away. In the abundance of texts, pings, information etc in modern communications, I can forget to reply sometimes. This is rarely personal from my side although I can understand it might come off as rude. Although I am sorry if I sometimes make people wait and cause disappointment, I have a right to choose what works for me without having to explain myself.

Quite a social introvert. I like having company and taking care of people. I love to explore the world by reading, watching different kinds of films, talking to people who are similar and the ones very different from me, and being in diverse environments.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe traveling is more about people than places. Or maybe traveling should be connecting people to people more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I adopted a crazy doggo from the shelter and am trying my best to teach and love him generously.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've written around the moon a few times probably, so I can help with something written. Can discuss mental health and growth, dog training, cleaning, being a digital nomad and various other things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some fun time and conversations, a few vegetarian recipes, book and film recommendations, flowers from a Latvian meadow or a Latvian beer (we are very proud of our beer brewing traditions as so many other nations are), good listening ears for your stories.
