I grew up in Vienna, Berlin and Riga, so I am fluent in German, Latvian and English. I studied psychology for 4 years but I don't think it is something I want to earn money with. I love travelling, though in the last 4-5 years I hadn't got the chance to go on a bigger adventure. I am currently feeling the thing called "Fernweh" - the longing for far-off places. I want to meet new people, hear their stories (I'm a good listener, so I've been told), learn about their culture and adventures, and generally widen my horizons.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

This will definitely not be the most original answer but sure as hell the least. It's simple - I want to get to know new people and maybe make some new friends :)

Музыка, кино и книги

I've seen so many good movies, this is a really hard task for me to do, but some of my favorites are Trainspotting (I,II), Perfect Strangers, Harry Potter and many, many more. I mostly enjoy watching movies of the drama genre, but I really love the X-men and Harry P. universes as well, so I don't have a particular taste in movies,
With music it is kind of the same - too many good artists to list all of them - some of my favorites are Cat Stevens, David Bowie, Grimes and Rammstein.
With books it is a different story, I haven't read a lot but some authors I liked are H. Murakami, M. Axelson, A.A.Milne, V.Nabokov ..oh, I wish I would read more classics...

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I've rescued two kittens and found them loving homes :)
(Sadly, stray-animals are quite the problem in my country..)

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I can try teaching Latvian or German, though I'd rather share some interesting facts about Latvians and their traditions. I would love to learn new things about different cultures and the way of living, the mentality of people in different places.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I can share some info about living in Latvia and Germany.. But I can lend an ear as well - after all, I spent four years of my life learning how to listen :)
