I am an artist and circus performer fom Lithuania, currently living in Berlin. Most of my life I spent in a city I was born in - Kaunas. Although, I always loved traveling. Since I became a circus artist (more specificaly, fire juggler) I joined a Studio Fire Circle in 2010, when I was only 13 years old, and my life as a traveling performer had begun.
At this day I am no more a pert of a group and live in Berlin. Most of my time here I was trying to discover myself as an individual artist, discover my own style, and it wasn't easy, but not long after I found a new partner who was interested in the same things I was looking for. That is how my new collaboration project called Red Wine Ent. was born. With our fresh cabaret/circus/music show we are traveling around and showing it in the streets of big cities and in festivals everywhere we can get.
I am eager to explore the world, get new experiences and share with people the things I create.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Traveling is one of my biggest interests in life. And I do not talk about the touristic trips, but the actual experiences of the world we live in. I have a hunger to meet interesting people, get into exiting situations, and of course, share my own part with others. I am equally interested to accept people here, in Berlin, as to be hosted by others anywhere the wind takes me.

Interessen

Circus, art and traveling were always my biggest passions. If I do not practise it myself, then I am going to galleries, underground circus performances or just wandering around in my beloved Berlin and waiting of something inspiring to happen.
I also take any possibility I get to escape from the town I live in, just to get a glimpse at another little part of the world.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

My all time greatest traveling experience (so far) happened in the island of Stromboli. That is a working vulcano island near Italy with a small completely white town at the edge of a sea. I went there as a fire performer to a Festa del Fuoco (fire festival) and spent the whole month performing in the streets of the vulcano town with fire. I also climbed the vulcano itself together with a local friend I got to know and made a fire performance with lava floting and groaning in my background. A private performance for a person who took me there.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I am always eager to share whatever I can. That is, I can talk for hours about movies, music and art, I just love doing that!
I try to teach a little bit of juggling whoever is interested, it's very fun!
I cook and bake pretty good and mostly everybody says my cupcakes are the best in a world ;)
