About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To prepare are full 7 course meal for 12 people and have them eat it with a smile on their faces.

ABOUT ME

I do not like speaking of myself on the internet that much but to put it briefly: I am an ordinary person, doing ordinary things which means I can live a simple life and enjoy the little things, there are very few things which bother me... so here are some quotes and random things:

I think fish are nice but then again I think rain is wet so who am I to judge?

If you put alcohol in your tea, it's not considered drinking.

I have two oddities considering clothing - I love socks and I never go out of the house without my long sleeved shirt and long trousers.

Now I'm out of ideas - I don't like talking that much about myself on the internet.

PHILOSOPHY

I've always found it useful to remind myself from time to time that it doesn't really matter how hard you try, the only thing of true value is the end result.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I provide accommodations in Latvia, I've only recently started participating more actively in CS although I registered a while back. Other than that - I guess I still have to learn about how this thing works.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None thus far, I've only received positive feedback from a couple of friends and the people I've met during the time they stayed at their places seemed great fun so... my experience is positive as well as non-existent.

Interests

A lot of things, but the things I'm most passionate about are physics and films.
