CURRENT MISSION

to be in the now

ABOUT ME

I am a funny and open-minded girl. I just finished high-school in Latvia and am going to gain some different experience by becoming an Au-pair girl in France. I love to laugh, to go for long walks, I love seeing breathtaking sights. I like experiencing the amazing things the city offers and I love exploring the things that the nature offers. :D
I am quite odd but mostly in a good way.

PHILOSOPHY

To enjoy every moment by living it truly in the now.
Sometimes it is better to listen to the silence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I guess at the moment I am the one who will need hosting but I hope that after a whie I will be able to hoste some of the amazing people from this project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Along with my siblings we have hosted a bunch of different couch-surfers. We haven't had a bad experience, of course we connected in different levels with each of our guests but it was always a pleasent experience. I can say that the people who participate in this project are truly worth meeting.

Interests

I am a healthy-thinking person. My interests include healthy lifestyle, yoga, martial arts, volleyball and swimming - but I can say that I am not an expert in any of these things :D . I love to dance and have a great time enjoying the things that life and nature itself offers. I also adore everything that is connected with films and cinemas and I am a book-reader too. I love to laugh and see other people smiling and enjoying themselves.

Together with my siblings we are filming different videos and trying to express ourselves creatively - you can check them out here http://vimeo.com/viksne . We love photography too - http://www.flickr.com/photos/viksne ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

This is a hard one... hmm...
I guess that the type of music, films and books I enjoy depend on the way I feel at that moment.
Music from alternative to pop - with good melody ;) Some of the groups I listen to - Sigur Ros, Radiohead, Jonsi, Coldplay, Mum, James Blake, Bon Iver, Bloc Party, Red Hot Chilly Pepers etc. I love music I can dance to. ^^
With movies, it's the same thing. I truly enjoy good films, films that make me lough, cry, that leave me with a good feeling inside.
Books - quite the same. I guess I have read all the Harry Potter books two or three times :D I often reread books by Eckhart Tolle. Sometimes I read children's books, sometimes something more mature.. ^_^

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spending 10 days the past three summers in a camp near the beach back home with some truly amazing people!! That makes me smile every time I think about it. ^_^

I am willing to learn what ever others want to teach.
With teaching ... Latvian and the basic nunchaku exercises..
