About Me

Currently not hosting.
Please, before sending a couch request to me read my couch conditions under “My Home”. Thanks.

************** ****************** ******************
Send a wish to the space and see how it comes true maybe already tomorrow. I am trusting and following the flow of life . Where it will take me this time?

I am friendly and open minded, a good person in general. I do not drink alcohol and I am vegetarian in the transition to vegan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was introduced to CS when I moved to live in Barcelona in 2007. At the moment I am back in Riga where I have born.

Since then I have been hosting couchsurfers now and then. Met people for a drink or dinner, to have a chat or even went salsa dancing.

During these years I have made friendships lasting up to now. CS is a good way to learn others and yourself, share the city I live and my culture.

Interests

I enjoy photography, driving a bike, to ski or skate. Good food with good music in a good company. Now and then go for dancing, for instance salsa, bachata or kizomba. Evening in the theater or opera. Practice yoga or meditate. Try out some food experiments or cook new dishes. Sometimes I do DIY projects such as restoring furniture etc. I designed my apartment where I live now in Riga.

I feel in the harmony, peace and good energies when I am in the nature. In autumn love to go to the forest to pick up the mushrooms ... for cooking, of course. In summer love to swim in the lake or sea, or just lay in the meadow and breath in fragrance of flowers, forest and fresh air.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Experienced silence of desert while glazing the sky with millions of stars.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to make a snowman with a carrot nose in snowy winter :)
