About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To try to live, not merely exist.

ABOUT ME

I am the purple/ lillac man. That is - I could say that my favorite things are those that are purple .
I am kinda philosophical and I like to think.. ask questions.. be skeptical about everything.
But actually studied physics for half a year and now I'm studying programming.. "cout<<"Hello, world!";
I dont smoke and do not consume any alcohol.

PHILOSOPHY

We should strive for de-centralized power (electricity), water and other resource systems. Everyone should have a photo-voltaic panel on their roof (or a wind turbine or something), a device that produces drinking water from regular air (sucks out the water that is already there) - no storm could cut off power to thousands of homes by breaking one (or few) major power lines ... you may get the idea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do not host travelers because I don't have my own apartment/ house yet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had one host in Latvia (my native country) and one host in London. Both ware very nice. For me and the other person. :)

Interests

Philosophy, physics, physiology, the structure of the universe ..

  • drinking
  • juggling
  • hiking
  • physics
  • hitchhiking

Music, Movies, and Books

I like sci-fi. Those that tend to broaden imagination, even if they seem absurd.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First thing that comes to mind is riding the EuroTrain with a car from UK to France underwater.. that is kinda cool.
Hitch-hiking to London (and then to Paris) from Riga and back.
Discovering why rainbows are round.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I want to learn? Pretty much everything. (how much I can absorb and understand is another story) :)
I could try to teach you to juggle a bit. :)
