Hello wonderful people!

I've been traveling for a couple of years now, and I've been traveling a lot with my girlfriend, Rugile. We've mainly been using her account (Rugile Vilciauskaite), but we figured it was about time I created my own.

I lived in HCMC, Vietnam for about a year teaching English and traveling throughout the country. I've driven across the US three times and one time Rugile and I lived in our car for 5 weeks going all over the country starting in New York, going to Vancouver, and down to Los Angeles (such an amazing journey!). I've also been to Mexico, El Salvador, and Cambodia, and I've gotten used to being on the road. Rugile and I are currently on our Eurotrip that we started in Berlin and have been hitching towards Monte Negro and will end in Italy!

I've had many jobs in various places, but my favorite so far is being a kayak instructor/tour guide! Such a wonderful way to explore the outdoors and meet fellow travelers from all over!

I am a little bit of a goof, addicted to laughing and making other people laugh. And I'm always curious to learn about new cultures, languages, point of views, and especially foods!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to meet and exchange stories about anything and everything. The experienced I've had with Couchsurfing will stay in my memory permanently and I will always look forward to talking and communicating with fellow travelers!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all three so much!
I love fantasy and dystopian novels such as: the LOTR trilogy, the Hobbit, Game of Thrones, Dune, and Brave New World, 1984, Animal Farm, and I, Robot.
Movies are a big interest of mine especially adventure, SciFi, and documentaries.
For music I love listening to and learning about all kinds, but especially love Folk, Indie, and anything I can read to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam in a lake next to a volcano, in a crater created from an eruption in El Salvador (Lago de Coatepeque) and it was the cleanest, most beautiful lake I've ever swam in!

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been a personal trainer, kayak instructor, and English teacher so I'm quite a big fan of teaching pretty much anything!
