I’m Raians (or Ryan), an Australian born citizen of Latvia. After 5 years of running my own business (mostly online) I am travelling again and looking forward to connect with new people, learn new things and contribute how I can (hopefully physical tasks where I can get my hands dirty, my favourite).
My natural qualities are fastidiousness, perseverance, and will, and I aim to always be enthusiastic, optimistic and focused.
I love physical work, whether carrying firewood (or anything heavy) or digging, or my favourite is construction. I was one of the main construction guys in the retreat centre I worked in, and this is still one of my favourite jobs I’ve had. My longer term plan is to settle in Europe and retrain as a welder.
My other core passion and what I’ve been lucky enough to support myself by teaching for the last 5 years is Spiritual Practice. I am a disciplined practitioner, spending a few hours a day on the mat practicing traditional Hatha Yoga, Meditation and Pranayama. I’m always happy to share about my practice and talk about the philosophies of Yoga as Union, Dzogchen and Non Dual Shaivite Tantra.
I love my quiet time, but also enjoy deep chats on the nature of reality or cooking and sharing a nice meal. I love to see, and sometimes, to make art. When I go exploring I love to visit historical places, especially those of worship or devotion, and connect to nature (hiking, freediving, cycling & motorcycling).
Native English speaker and fluent in Spanish (though a Costa Rican rather than Spanish accent) I also speak/understand bits of Portuguese, Thai and French. I love learning languages and look forward to picking up more.Interessengebiete
