About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To finish my studies

ABOUT ME

I consider mysef as a frendly, positive and outgoing person. I like to travel, to do sports, as rock climbing, snowboard, tennis etc. As a traveler I'm more like a "climb a mountain" not "lay on the beach" type. One of my biggest passions is food, not only to taste it but also to prepare it. I also like to go clubbing and dancing, especially until early mornings.

One thing that I consider as my weakness is that I need some time to open for new people, but as foreigners say this is a common thing for latvians. ;)

PHILOSOPHY

“I don’t get any belief from what somebody else is doing. Zero belief. If I win, then I believe in myself.” - Ernests Gulbis (amazing latvian tennis player)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Currently I've had only 3 couchsurfing expierences and all of them were superb. Especially I can mention my amazing israeli hosts, they were 9 people living in one villa near Nice, in France, and they hosted me and my friend for 4 days. Just amazing and crazy people. :)) My next experience will be in Poto, Portugal.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

All the places I've been I consider to be amazing. Ok, when I'll climb to the top of Mont Blanc I'll write it here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've learned from Simon (my french couchsurfer from Cannes) how to make a traditional french dish - Quiche Lorraine. It's amazing.

I have learnd from all my couchsurfers what ar real trust means, they all welcomed me in their houses as if it was mine.
