About Me

CURRENT MISSION

life is short - eat dessert first

ABOUT ME

I like contrasts and new experiences in life.

Currently studying medicine. This autumn I will make a big step forward by starting to work in a hospital as a doctor! Working with people makes me happy. More certain information coming soon! :)

As I have very few free time - I appreciate any chance to have fun (parties, concerts, meeting up with friends) and relax (chilling with good music and company, preparing some tasty food etc.). Before medicine I was reading books pretty often. Also history and foreign languages are subject of my great interest!

PHILOSOPHY

"The best way to predict the future is to create it."
/P. Drucker/

"Life is short. Eat dessert first."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to show around the city when I have free time.
I also can give some useful tips for things to do&see in Riga and Latvia!
It's always a pleasure to see how people who haven't heard a lot about Latvia/Riga start to like it here, develop understanding and take good memories with them back home :)
