About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life in all it's greatness

ABOUT ME

I am a philosopher who likes to help others a lot. I have been called a personal shrink, if you may :)
I have found personal fountain of energy - ice swimming, meditation and mindfulness.
In the meantime - I take care of my teenage son and 7 year old daugter.

In winter I try to survive. In summer i spend most of my time under the water in the nearby sea, build sandcastles and sometimes get buried in the sand by my son.
I like to engage in long discussions about the meaning of life, afterlife, space and all the wonders in the world, as there always is something astonishing and new to discuss. I also like to share and find out everything i can about relationships, parenting and the way society lives today and what we can do to make it better.

PHILOSOPHY

all people are good inside. we just don't know their stories.
Life is a chance to challenge yourself with yourself. your best success is to be better than you were before, no matter the others around you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted one couchsurfer so far, but looking forward to host more, as soon as i have more space.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a couchsurfer girl from Sweden, when my brother who started to do it first, suddenly couldn't do it. She was shy but very nice and brave - surfing all across Europe for a year with two giant bags.
I took her to the seaside, to old town and to biggest latvian traditional craft fair in Brivdabas muzejs. she liked it.
