PHILOSOPHY

The imperfections in our journey are what makes it perfect.

"To travel is to be born and to die at every instant" Victor Hugo

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness"
Mark Twain

'I don't think there is any truth. There are only points of view.' Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a beautiful beautiful idea connecting people! It's an amazing opportunity to get to know a country through the eyes of locals, it a completely different experience than just being a regular tourist. And also to show the travelers the best bites of my home (in a broad sense). I love sharing the stories, and broadening the horizons! Because when I get to show about something so familiar to me, yet so weird for someone else, the best discussions are born!

I have surfed around Europe, also met up with some other surfers, to hang out and show around! Haven't hosted anyone through couchsurfing yet, but generally have hosted internationals, and these experiences are fun and inspiring!

Intereses

Dancing! Especially Latino dances, like salsa Cubana, bachata, right now I am learning Argentinian tango! I like active lifestyle, so I'm cycling and working out a lot, trying to spend as much time as possible in the nature. I'm volunteering in a few different organizations, it's a way to meet great people and contribute to something greater. Another passion of mine is cooking, I'm experimenting with vegan cuisine, usually improvise, and just enjoy to see where the journey takes me. Cooking for me is a form of art and a way to relax and exercise creativity. You can check out my kitchen experiments on my IG: https://www.instagram.com/ieva.silick/
A discussion about literature and history over a glass of wine is definitely a great way to spend an evening!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Riding a camel in the Egypt a few years ago. It was absolutely amazing and a bit hilarious at the same time.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you the basics of salsa cubana and bachata. Give some cooking tips and tricks. Hopefully my contagious positivism can teach you to always find something good in every situation.
