About Me

I am a student, artist, sociologist and a traveler. At least that's what I would think of my self. I love to explore, get to know new people and see new places. Right now I am studying in Riga. I still don't know where i am going with my life, but I just call it improvisation. And in connection with improvisation - I love improvisation theater, and I just admire how people can act on the spot and pull of the craziest of acts. Currently I am working also as a sociologist in National Library, trying to make people read more (That's another thing I like to think and that is what my job description sort of say)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am Couchsurfing in order to travel and to meet people who are similar thinking as I am. As well it is a possibility to bring people with the most crazy stories into your life. I have hosted many friends who I have met in different Youth in Action, Erasmu+ proramms, and as well from studying in Eau Claire and Berlin.

Interests

I love art and my favorite art style is surrealism. I just love to put the most weirdest things together in my sketches.
Snowboarding, snow, winter, ice skating is also one passion of mine, which just doesn't work so well anymore, because we don't get enough snow here in Latvia, and I love real snow. It is more plasant to fall in a real snow, than in a fake one, that's for sure.
Theater has been with me for a while, I started with improvisation theater, then I went to the "real" theater, and then back to improvisation, and right now I am just admiring both of them, and practising neither of them.

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favorite movies is Mr. Nobody and books, hmm, there are a lot of books that I have started, and then they just make a version of The leaning tower of Pizza by my bed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped with a rope from a fire watchtower. I don't know how to describe that correctly in english. But in order to do that I had to jump .Sound easy (maybe) - but it wasn't. It felt like forever, standing on the edge and thinking of all the possible ways how this could end bad. End of course, finally, when I jumped, it was amazing, so, so good.

Teach, Learn, Share

Right now I am developing a project with my friends called - REAL LIFE TOURS. Trying to give a possibility to fellow travelers meet the locals, see and fell their stories. Not pushing of creating cities and places for turists, but just showing as it is, showing the real thing.
