ABOUT ME

My name is Ida. I'm from Lithuania, currently residing in Mexico (this changes almost every year).
I love making music. Practising yoga and meditation. Reading. Learning. Travelling, visiting new places. Meeting new people. Hiking in the mountains and swimming. Sleeping in a tent. Recording sounds surraunding me. Walking down the street while singing. Jogging. Observing.

I really do not enjoy shopping :)

I am a raw-vegan (because of health issues), but I have nothing against people consuming meat products or drinking alcohol. I strongly believe that only we know and can decide what is the best for ourselfs.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is inside you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I have no place to host but I am open for meeting, exploring and sightseeing cities/places together. Sometimes I am going to CS meetings and surfing couches :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

only good and interesting!!!!!

Interests

Music is my second language, I enjoy connecting to people while playing or singing together (doesnt matter what)
Traveling is very interesting too :) according to my beliefs it is the best way to get to know the culture and its people, to value what I already have. At all, to understand what is this life and the world about.
Maybe 1 year ago I started to like to cook (actually to try new recipies), so raw-vegan/vegetarian cooking is interesting topic for me. I really like learning new stuffs!
I am also constantly searching for information about techniques for quick reading and learning languages,

• arts
• singing

• hiking
• hitchhiking
• reading books
• vegan cooking
• raw vegan

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to sing, play piano or one of my loop stations (a lot of fun!), give some basics in lithuanian language, show how to make hummus/raw cake, truffles/other easy and tasty vegan stuffs by yourself and much more.
I would like to learn about other cultures, experiences there, about the host as a person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Kundalini yoga, singing or piano classes, singing or mantra circles. Also my knowledge, experiences, souvenires from the country I live at the moment. I can listen :)
