Music, Movies, and Books

I am crazy in love with experimental art, avant-garde. Also different folk, world music. I recorded two KLEZMER music albums, so klezmer music is really close to my heart. Favourite movie has to be Cinema Paradiso, I always cry when seeing this one. Favourite book Hesse “Siddhartha”.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitch-hiked from Lithuania to Croatia border in Hungary when I was 18 without any money, just playing in streets.
