Overview
About Me
Hi everybody! I am active, friendly and positive person. I have a common interest with everybody here - I love travelling. So we will definitely find a common language with all kind of backpackers, travellers and outdoors lovers. I am not a party animal, but I am very sociable and inquisitive. My world become different when I've finished my studies and discovered climbing. Since then my life is all around rocks and mountains.
So why I am here? My goal for now - get inspiration from people around me. I wanna leave my comfort zone and find more crazy people. I am genuinely interested in different cultures.
I don’t know what is normal. I think it depends on your limits and boundaries. And people who you meet are able to widen your world.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To find new friends, leave my comfort zone and get some inspiration !
Interests
Let’ s see...
- travelling
- climbing. I am climbing about 6 years. I have tried different variations of climbing - mountaineering and rock climbing, but for now I prefer bouldering.
- hiking, backpacking. It gives you more freedom!
- cycling. I bought my first bike 5 years ago, and now I realize that I lost so many time! My old friend - hardtail mountain bike has found his corner in the living room and waiting for a good ride! But I am dreaming about new full suspension mountain bike and cross road bike.
I can also mention running, yoga, slackline, dances etc. I’ ve tried salsa, bachata, merengue, cha cha, west coast swing, ballet, contemporary jazz. Now I don’t have enough time for dances ( because of other priorities), but I still love watching performances (especially choreography in contemporary dance and jazz dance).

If you have specific plans for this trip, I can help you with transport, tickets, advices, etc. But I should confess I am not good guide - I have many gaps in my knowledges about home city and history (especially in night life and architecture).
Sometimes I have hiking, climbing or cycling plans for weekend, but you can join me if you wish. We can take a slackline from my friend and stretch it on the beach, or .. I have an extra bicycle (actually it belongs to my boyfriend, but he don' t mind). This bike is not so cool as mine, but we can take a ride to Jurmalas beach ( it is very famous place, resort, located only 25 km from my home ).
