Hey there! I’m Ieva, a Lithuanian currently living in the vibrant Netherlands. I’m passionate about staying active and love to engage in yoga, meditation, pilates, bouldering, and sailing. I also have a deep love for woodworking—there’s something incredibly satisfying about creating something tangible with my hands. When I’m not out and about, you’ll often find me spending quality time with dogs—I’m really into dog training and love learning about canine behavior.

I consider myself a curious, easy-going, respectful person - always up for an adventure or a deep conversation over coffee. Whether it’s a quick chat, a shared meal, or a joint exploration of your city, I’m excited to meet like-minded people and create lasting memories through Couchsurfing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe Couchsurfing offers a unique opportunity to truly experience the essence of the places I visit. Rather than just skimming the surface of a new city, I want to learn from the locals, understand the culture, and explore spots that you won’t find in any guidebook. For me, it’s about the exchange of ideas, stories, and experiences that makes every journey memorable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My view: throughout own life there are many amazing things I do and each of them gives me invaluable experience/joy/learning. I’m one of those that has hard time distinguishing just one thing, but that’s a good topic to share with my hosts.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you’re into yoga or meditation, I’d love to practice together or even guide a session (I’m a certified yoga trainer)! I can also offer insights into dog training if you have a furry friend at home. And if you’re into woodworking, I’d love to swap tips, techniques, or even work on a small project together. Of course, I’m more than willing to swap travel stories, share about Lithuanian culture, and learn all about your experiences too.
