Hey!

Mini rant:
The most important tidbit is I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANYONE ROMANTICALLY.

Now onto my profile -

So a little about me - I'm planning on going to a 1 year trip to India this November, December. I don't really have a plan but that's how I love to live my life - spontaneously. :)

I love a lot of things! I love astronomy, philosophy, science, art, theatre and films. Literally hit me up and we can talk about anything. I also really love cooking! My favourite thing to make is probably cinnamon buns with caramel sauce, it's freaking delicious.

Fun fact, I know how to say thank you in at least 15 languages, so let me add yours to the list!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't have a permanent residence at the moment, as I want to explore as much of the world as possible. I want to get to know a lot more about people's cultures and the way they live. It just feels much more personal and closer to reality and that's what I'm chasing in this life - real people with real stories.

Music, Movies, and Books

Turns out I actually have a favourite song at the moment, It's the Mika - Love today! Great song to put at the start of the day.

I have lots of movies which I love, since I try to watch 1 or 2 films a day. Here is a list of my favourites:

As for books, I always recommend people read: Sapiens - a brief history of mankind and What are you doing with your life by Krishnamurti.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16, I decided to go on a 2 week trip from Latvia to Spain 5 hours before the trip began and I didn't even have a suitcase! Now that I'm 24, I have done a lot more, let's say volunteering in Greece for 6 months now, painting schools and saving turtles. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English really well, also give lots of cooking tips. I can share about my culture and where I come from and what to see in Latvia.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my passion for my culture, I can try to cook something Latvian, or I can help improve English skills. I'm also a really good talking partner.
