Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My current mission in progress is rather boring and won`t satisfy most - I am trying to get the basic things I want from my life - good education to start my career with and find a place where I can settle down and start thinking about bigger things.
ABOUT ME
I am a 22 year old, last year IT student. I have born and grown up a small town Sigulda, located ~60km from the capital of Latvia - Riga. For the last 4 years I have dedicated myself to become a software engineer and learning to build software products that at least a few people would find useful, At the moment I am enjoying my Erasmus internship in Belgium - Ghent.
Interests
I am interested in information technologies (Open source software, Linux operating systems and other IT stuff which I won`t describe in detail here). One of my hobbies are digital photography, although with the start of my studies that has been put away a little bit.

Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes down to movies, generally I enjoy Sci-Fi/Action oriented movies and I`m a huge fan of Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan masterpieces - my favorites being The Dark Knight, Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, The Prestiege, Inception and others.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Two trips I will remember always - Norway and Austria.
I went to Norway for two weeks together with my family. Since Norway is rather expensive we decided to going by car and camping each night. Half of the time there was very light rain - sometimes only a mist that made the trip very atmospheric. I got to enjoy the wilderness of Norway and also some stunning landscapes in clear weather.
Similar to Norway, we also went in a two week camping trip. Single most spectacular thing about Austria - the mountains. Unlike Norway the weather was just perfect and we got to enjoy mountain passes of Alps. I would go there again in a heartbeat.
