About Me

I’m an activist working for various nonprofit, public benefit organisations. Currently, living and co-creating a community in the suburbs of Riga - basically, we put 200 people under the same roof with the purpose to figure out what does it mean to live a happy life. Meanwhile, I’m studying for my Masters to understand how to finance this alternative lifestyle I’ve been living for the past years. 😃

I love adventures, artsy things, meaningful conversations, cosy chillouts, and vegan cooking. 🌱 Although a community person, I do enjoy solitude quite a lot, especially after a long day in art galleries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe housing is a basic human right & it should be easily available. I’ve met many amazing people in my life who have supported me, and a place on a couch is a small thing I can offer back to the world. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I coordinated 720h long street action in front of our Parliament that eventually lead to banning fur farming in Latvia. 🦊♥️

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ideas for making your place more cosy (if you wish), company for a morning stretch, freshly cooked meals & sharing recipes, if you’re interested to explore plant-based cuisine. Aaaand if I’m coming from home - I pretty sure will have Riga Black Balsam with me. 😉
