About Me

An architect, researcher, graphic designer, avid reader, knitter and spinner. Studying history and mythology for understanding architecture of Lithuanian cemeteries in the context of European Christianity. Travelling far through the old manuscripts, descriptions of how people lived in previous centuries, takes me to understand the wholeness of historical cycle, finding myself in this little moment of history. I like so many things, that putting myself in one box would be impossible: architecture as profession, music as a soundtrack for life (Purcell is so good for writing), cinema of all the periods, illustration and graphic design (drawing some doodles myself), books books books, spinning with an old spinning wheel from my grandmother's sister, natural wool, photography (find me on instagram @bazaraite), family stories and history, interesting food and some cooking... and ceramics .. and beautiful homes... and travels to the small towns, walks in the mountains and lazy sea watching... meditation.

Living in Vilnius, Lithuania, after seven years spent in Lisbon, Portugal.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like receiving people in my home, but during last years I have been too busy to be an active member of CS.. However I've never surfed a couch, but I gave my couch to some surfers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I packed my bags and moved to Lisbon without a notion to what it all would turn into. A risk I should never forget to cherish. It brought me many tears, lots of laughter, I grew here.
