About Me

I'm a young and passionate media producer, just recently graduated from University in the UK and working full time in Vilnius on various non-standard digital media projects. Love travelling and adventure, always up for something new and interesting, always looking for inspiration. :)

Looking for beauty in all things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in travelling more around Europe and I find that meeting locals while travelling is the best way to get to know the area. Talking to people can show you more than the eye can see. Also, hotels are expensive :D

Interests

I am interested in stories, all kinds of stories: about life, fiction, events, hypothetical ones, educational, old and new, small and grand, personal and touching ones.... The list goes on.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't confine myself to one music genre, my playlist is always various. Lately 've been listening to more electronic music, I especially like artists like Alt-J, Nujabes, Samaris, but I couldn't say if I have a favorite.

Favorite films: Night on the Earth, Brasil, Black Cat White Cat, Mind Game, Monty Python and the Holy Grail....

Thinking of my favorite books I realize, that I should read more. Lord of the Rings, Equal Rites (Terry Pratchet - just getting into his work)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rappelled down from bridge, 30m high. But I imagine my truly important and amazing experiences are still in the future :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could teach hosts a couple of self defense moves, play a game, share a deep conversation and cook a meal. And of course eternal gratitude and respect
