About Me

CURRENT MISSION

start a project that would make a positive change in the society...

PHILOSOPHY

'Happiness is only true when shared!' by Christopher,the movie Into the Wild

When travleing I never plan every small step I'm going to make during my trip, but rely on the circumstances and it has always lead me to the most amazing experiences...!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a profile on couchsurfing for a while now( about 1,5 years), but so far haven't been actively using it. Maybe it is the right time to get more involved, cuz lately I've met quite a few great people who were telling me how much they enjoy it. :)

Interests

Iceland,ice-skating, photography, languages, traveling, books,mountains, hiking...
I have a great passion for mountains! I come from a country where we don't have mountains just hills, so it is something amazign and special for me...at some point for sure I'm going to live in a town or city surrounded by white peaks of majestic mountains...

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Predictably irrational by Dan Ariely
Master i Margarita, Michail Bulgakov....
I like music that makes me feel alive, to name some bands: Muse,Scissor sisters,
Yohanna(Iceland), Sigur Ros....
Although I've been traveling a lot in the past 2 years, Latvian music is the closes to my heart...Prata Vetra, Astro'n'out, Martin Confused, El Mars(Raimonds Gusarevs)and many other very talanted musicians from my country.
Movies: Science of Sleep,Into the Wild,
Before Sunset, Before Sunrise, August Rush, Dirty Dancing, Mio in the Land of Faraway(don't laugh, I loved it when I was a child...:))and plus everything directed by Pedro Almadovar!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Iceland for 5 month...at the time when 2 volcanoes erupted! When in the late evening me and some freinds got into a small rental car just to get closer to the active vulcano and experience the power of nature...
