About Me

CURRENT MISSION

'There was nowhere to go but everywhere, keep rolling under the stars.'

ABOUT ME

Traveller, vegetarian, human rights activist from Lithuania, I've quit my NGO job over a year ago, moved to Italy and now I continue exploring the world and saving money for the next great adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

'But why think about that when all the golden land ahead of you and all kinds of unforeseen events wait lurking to surprise you and make you glad you're alive to see?' J. Kerouac

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Istanbul in December 2013 for the first time and that was the beautiful beginning of my couchsurfing experiences :) Since then I've couchsurfed in Italy, Israel, Malta, Bulgaria, Iran and Turkey again!
I have also hosted some great couchsurfers who were exploring Lithuania.
