I love meeting interesting people and learning from them. Life can suddenly be so much easier by exchanging experiences with other people - for example learning how to make Turkish coffee is so simple, someone just has to show you (pour hot water on coffee ground in your mug and just leave it in as it will sink )and it safes time and a coffee maker.
I would say I am a quite happy and open-minded person that laughs a lot. Btw I love English humour !
What I am still working on is my ignorance when it comes to music that I don't like. Back home I'd go to techno parties but while travelling in Australia and New Zealand I'd honestly prefer to stay at home rather than getting drunk and dance to charts music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's way more fun than staying in a hostel with other tourists and you get to know local legends and learn about their culture! (And it's free...... )

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: techno, psytrance (as there is not much techno in Oz and Nz)

I like French movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

community living in a warehouse without running water

Teach, Learn, Share

I finished the first 2 years of medical studies (preclinical part) in Latvia and while travelling I learned so much about alternative medicine, healing by nutrition and thinking and about the mind-body-complex. Human beings are so diverse and interesting!
