Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like guiding travellers through Riga and Latvia and i love to learn new things myself. So I participate as an explorer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started my experience with hosting travellers here in Riga. It was great and i gained some good friends abroad. I visited some of them at their home town later. I've travelled by CS myself to Palma de Mallorca and Sardinia. So far great experience only! I also do some CS meetings and events now in London.
