Overview
About Me
I come from a small country in Northern Europe - Latvia. It's a bit unique place. I run a small cafe in the capital Riga. I also travel a lot.
I try to swim against the flow - do things differently. I would like to change the world for the best, but then at the end of the day I would still be just a person - not a hero.
Deep thoughts are my thing.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is the best way to explore the world and meet the locals - because the locals and the place they live in makes the world so different and great. I used to go to places to see buildings and landscapes - now I'm going to places to meet people and share some fun with them.
When I couldn't travel I hosted many people from around the world and I felt like I'm travelling when I listened to their amazing stories and experiences.

Freeride skiiing in waist deep snow

Teach, Learn, Share
I have an experience in very wide field of things and I would love to share it. I can tell you about - travelling, skiing, building and owning a coffee shop, doing business, making your own furniture, fixing domestic appliances and more.
