Description

Hello,

Usually I contact potential hosts through Woofer pages this is my first try to use workaway.info. So far I have been in some communities and helped with everyday works and in the hostels, hotels and did everything is needed starting from reception to kitchen.

About me
I come from northern Europe – Latvia and I love my country very much, however I do love to travel also and learn form others. Therefore When I travel I do volunteering as I think that is the best way how to meet real people and learn culture. I hope to meet you someday and learn from you also 
I love to be active and I think that we are made to move, not to sit and only thing that gives us healt is movement. Therefore I do sports like skiing, snowboarding, ice skating in winter and cycling, swimming, running in summers or in mid season. In summers here in Latvia we do a lot of camping and escaping in the nature for couple of days to walk the forests or seaside. When I can I go to the mountains to take some trails, however i never been higher than 3000m above the sea level.

I am responsible and friendly

I love music (different kind), but my favourite ones are played on string instruments like guitar, chello or violin.


My skills
I am a freelance graphic designer
Sports and yoga instructor
I am a student of Riga Stradins University Public Health and Sports programme.

However those are not my only skills as I used to work as:
manager at the airport ticket desk which involves work with a lot of people everyday, solving problems and motivating team to do everything better.
and key account manager in the company who represents cruise lines in Baltic States, that gave me experience of good quality service in tourism field.

I like to cook for my friends and my self and can share my own recipes if needed.

As I was raised in country side and own a house with the garden I am familiar with work in garden and also can repair tools or some simple things in a house or paint the walls.

Hope to see you soon and share the skills and learn.
