CURRENT MISSION

Being a worker bee in Lithuania

ABOUT ME

Funny, curious, friendly, openminded, easygoing, take a look what people think down there, too... I can tell you lots of stuff about birds. and you will not be able to go around not noticing them any more..Just kidding. But sometimes people do get smitten.
I've been working mostly as a translator, working for big companies, small companies, translation offices.. Teaching various people various languages, doing a bit of babysitting, I like to try my luck at new stuff, earn new skills.

Working back in Lithuania now in medical tourism and translating books... would gladly meet and chat and show around, sometimes might even be able to offer a place, as I live centrally by the river inbetween bridges, though I have a flatmate, with whom i have to double check!

PHILOSOPHY

Relativism is not the answer.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have met really great people while couchsurfing in Germany, with whom I still keep in touch. CS hosts helped me greatly when travelling alone in New Zealand a well. all in all i think couchsurfing is an extraordinary experience and I've been very happy with it so far.
