About Me

A proud latvian living in a van and traveling the world. I study Philosophy and English Literature in the University of York, UK. And when I am not reading and thinking, I take photos and make videos. I have a deep interest in ethics, holistic views of nature, and traditional cultures.

When it comes to my free time, I don't think there is anything better than climbing a mountain, surfing or hiking. I believe in living life to the fullest and learning to be happy in every and all circumstanes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and I believe that one of the essences of traveling is meeting new people and this seems like a great way to do so.

Interests

Besides my interest in design, music and other arts I also take great interest in philosophy and physics, because that seems like the best way to learn how the world around us works. (:
