Hi, I grew up and live in Riga (Latvia), but also spent some time in small town in Belarus were my granny lives. Well, there is lots of interesting I can share, bet as for now here is the first point - my next journey will be to Vladivostok, Russia already this September 2017. If you are there text me and let's have some cool time there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Most recent and fascinating books I have read are "1000 DAYS OF SPRING" by Tomislav Perko, "Metro 2033" by Dmitry Glukhovsky, "Book Thief" by Markus Zusak, "The Silkworm" by Robert Galbraith, "Idiot" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, "The Master and Margarita" by Mikhail Bulgakov and many-many more

I haven't seen lots of movies, but those I liked recently are "Midnight in Paris", "Armour of God", "Alice in Wornderland", "Frances Ha", "Interstellar".

As for music it flow through me in any minute and therefore is very different - from Funk and Lindy Hop to Dubstep and Rap. To understand just have a ride with me and I will turn it on for you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to throw a frisbee and how to cook chicken fillet (mom's recipe).
I would like to try (and hopefully learn how to cook) your favorite home dish.
We could share some native language words and suggest a good book to read.

What I Can Share with Hosts

When traveling I like to feel the rhythm of a city or place I am in. And this is the thing I will try to pass or ask to other Couchsurfers. Some truly loved places which I already visited you will find in my photo blogs on Flickr (https://www.flickr.com/photos/ivansmihailovs/) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/checkyourheartrate/).
