ABOUT ME

We are a couple (Laura&Eriks) from Latvia currently living and studying in Scotland, Dundee. Eriks is studying animation while i am studying art and design. Winters we usually spend working hard and studying even harder so we don't have much time for leisure but when we do - we like to grasp the moment and squeeze everything out of it. As there is no school in summer most of our adventures take place then, we love hiking (Scotland is excellent for it), traveling and meeting new folks.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is a path and everything else is another path.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We host, we surf and take part in some local CS events once in a while.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed before a couple of times (great experience) but Eriks still have to experience his first borrowed couch. As for hosting.... we started doing it recently cause before just did not have a place where. Have had a few surfers staying with us and i would say we are prety good hosts :D
