Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a CS or HC guest in some European countries (Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Albania...) and I hosted loads of people in Vilnius. Half of this happened years ago via HospitalityClub (predecessor of CS)

Interests

I am curator working in a museum. I mostly work with contemporary art, but I also combine it with historical art or do projects with scientists, communities, etc.
Now I am practicing contact improvisation and looking forward to starting Aerial Yoga. I was doing Aikido for 5 years.
Recently I started to volunteer at a mental health cente
I was involved in activism working with public space issues
I have a ferret and she is my inspiration

My last books were books of Zadie Smith, Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie, Hermann Meliville and Carl Gustav Young.

My recent music discovery was Anne Clark and Moondog

If honestly, am more into non-hollywood films, but I am not militant and good movie is a good movie
