About Me

I'm a 23 year old Classical Philology student that likes to travel in her free time. I like to meet new people wherever I go and learn new things about the place where I am at. I am also a streamer on Twitch.tv where I play various computer games, that's like my hobby. Love cooking and baking since I was a kid. So if i get the opportunity of staying at your place I can make you a tasty meal. I am very passionate about languages and that's why I am studying philology. As a Classical Philology student I read and translate a lot of old texts in Latin and Ancient Greek, such as Homer, Cicero, Herodot and Ovid. Ancient culture is interesting and in every lecture I find out something new. Recently I started to study Modern Greek which is a new goal of mine to fully learn this language, as I have many friends in Greece and Cyprus. I love doing yoga, it makes me relaxed and helps aleviate everyday stress.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for a more interesting way to explore the surroundings of the place where I'm headed.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a broad spectre of music starting from country and ending with heavy metal. My top 3 favourite movies are: Nowhere boy, Zodiac, Lorax. I used to read at least 2 books a week, but now with my studies I don't read much anymore. Types of books I mainly read are either novels, drama, crime or just simple poetry.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wouldn't call it amazing, but I started streaming on Twitch.tv which I never thought I'd be able to do, because I'm an introverted person. I'm slowly making a progress on coming out of my safe zone bubble. Oh, and also I've educated people about Human Trafficking, so that is something.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some basic Latvian, give you some good recipes from my home place and share my knowledge about the things I'm good at, and just tell my travel stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge, enthusiasm, cooking skills and stories.
