Overview
About Me
Hey everyone! I'm from Lithuania, a small country in the Northeast of Europe. I studied bachelor in East Asian languages and cultures and also did a masters degree in linguistics. Studied in Japan and South Korea. Recently have been working in Turkey for 7 months in tourism - it was a really interesting experience. I really love traveling and meeting new people :) I always try to be kind to people and I love to share my knowledge (as much as I have :D) Also I am spontaneous and enjoy having an adventure with interesting people.
Feel free to contact me and ask for more detailed info :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Forever student on a budget (well, not anymore, but I just got too used to budget my travels :D) . Love travellimg and try to do that even with very limited budget, cause what better can a human being do than experience something new and exciting. I'm not picky and it's way more fun to stay in unexpected places rather than be comfy in a pricy boring hotel. That way you get to know different stories of local people, different lifestyles, learn from them and give something yourself. At the same time it's more challenging, so I'm excited to meet open-minded and kind people along the way!

Music, Movies, and Books
I love anything old school. Got a big 80's and 90's nostalgia even tho I wasn't alive for most of that time lol. I like all kind of music tho, not sure, if I even have a favorite genre. I like fantasy books and real life stories. As for movies, my favorites are horror movies. Sometimes I watch drama or romance. And martial arts movies :) And I looove Korean dramas
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Cycling Shimanami Kaido in Japan - it felt so good!
Driving a bike for 30 km while
drunk at 3 am through Japanese villages and rice fields (no wonder "adventure" is listed as my hobby)
Packing my stuff and going to work for 7 months to Turkey (I love it there!)
Teach, Learn, Share
I will gladly share everything about my culture :) I can teach my language or some basic japanese. I can also try to make some traditional dishes from my country, but i don't promise anything professional, because i'm not a very good cook :D And i will bring you souvenirs, I love giving presents so much
What I Can Share with Hosts
My culture, language, thoughts about anything and my experience (even though i don't have a lot) . It would be nice to spend time just exchanging conversations and doing interesting activities.
