  • Description

    Hello :)
    I've spent a lot of time studying in my 20s. Now I've just turned 30 and I am traveling to discover where I'd like to base myself, and in parallel I am working on different projects using ideas and skills that I developed studying.

    I like to spend time in nature, read, cycle, walk, write in my journal. I am a fan of minimalist lifestyle and learning more about sustainable and eco-friendly paths as possible.
    I don't think I've figured out what kind of life I want yet, but more and more I have a desire to live in nature and move away from big cities. I have background in design, media arts, computer science. I am a quite curious person and enjoy finishing what I start. I believe I am easy-going, friendly, I am positive and always try to look at the bright side. I believe there are infinite number of solutions, we just need to think and be creative. I am clean and tidy, respectful and enjoy good conversations!

    I love animals, I used to spend many summers in a rural setting in Latvia with farms around and doing gardening.
    My weak spots are cats and sweets (although I am working on reducing sugar in my diet :D ). I have always had a cat growing up and even brought him with me to my university town. I was cat sitting many times in different places and I love establishing connections with animals!

    Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
    I lived in Valencia and Asturias for over a year and picked up the basics there, I want to keep learning and practicing Spanish. Hence, my understanding of Italian is also existent :D I am Russian native speaker if you want to learn some :) And my partner is English. Over the past years most of my communication happened in English, which I would be happy to teach as well! I also enjoy French and German and know a little, but not to converse for more than 2 minutes.

  • Quelles sont vos compétences ?

    I have masters in HCI and entrepreneurship and did an undergrad in computer science, but I've wanted to move away from the coding and try something different - so I did MA in media arts which I've just finished. I've always been interested in psychology, philosophy and artistic endeavors such as painting, photography and a bit of writing. I designed and published my own little book last year, which I was proud of :D

    I studied and lived in different places over the past decade, I worked on startup projects, as a full-stack developer, and a researcher.

    I'm interested in well-being and sustainable living. I lived in a countryside most of my childhood summers, where we had a huge garden of veggies, herbs and berries! I was an au pair for a 3 year old once and spent a lot of time with my nephew! Also, I like animals and taking care of them :)

    I can help with things around the house, garden, contribute to any diy and artistic projects you may have, and can contribute with my own ideas if you wish. I would also be happy to play with kids :)

    I am interested in building things, but haven't had much change (I only built a digital coaster with arduino and laser cut), but I guess that doesn't count as much as building a furniture. But I am quick to learn and not afraid of work!

    Overall, I am friendly, responsible, like learning and trying out new things. I do my best to enjoy life and tend to finding something good in every situation.

  • Autres infos...

    I met Harry 3 years ago and we've traveled to many places together.
    I took a class in neuroscience and have been fascinated by brains for a long time.
    I like spending time reading, writing, cycling, hiking, doing yoga, running, simply stargazing and having nice conversations.
    I studied design thinking and love brainstorming activities, educational bootcamps and researching things.
    I did tango for 2 years and danced choreography for 10 years.
    My curiosity in mental health and creativity sparked my interest in spirituality and herbal medicine.
    I enjoy most of the music and learnt a few chords on guitar, learned playing piano for a year, but it's hard to keep practicing if you are not settled in one place for a long time!
    This year I learned the craft of making flavored kombucha, baking a sourdough bread and making ceramics.

    In general, I try to find joy in simple activities, own less things and watch my habits carefully.
