I'm an easy-going person who loves to travel, speaking foreign languages and meeting new people. In the past I've lived in several countries and had always good experiences, meeting great people which I'm mostly still in contact with. I adapt easily to my new environment and hope to discover a bit of the world.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I'm on Couchsurfing because it's for me the best way to exchange with people I wouldn't meet otherwise.

The reason why I learn languages is to be able to exchange with people that don't speak my mother language when I'm traveling in their countries. Normally as a tourist you tend to be cut off the land you're visiting. That's not how I like to travel and this is the reason why Couchsurfing suits the way I see it.

Interessen

I love dancing (I do dance since I'm five years old, starting with ballet and modern-jazz, now practising persian dance and salsa), having a walk in the nature, reading, speaking foreign languages, listen to some good music, cinema, but not the commercial-blockbuster one....

Those last few years I did several bikepacking trips in Switzerland and neighbouring France on a tandembike. Euphemism to say those aren't made for climbing slopes. But the memmories are worth every second of pain.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I solo travelled from Vilnius to Almaty, which implied many amazing adventures.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am happy to cook meals, help practice a language or to invite for a meal to show my gratitude. I can show you how beautiful is Geneva, the city I've grown up in, have a coffee,... If you're not afraid of climbing a huge amount of stairs, I can even show you one of the best sights of the city, up in the cathedral :)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Language exchange, discussion about anything, among others cultural specificities, food, walks, ... I am open to many things and a good talker/listener. But I also know how to be quiet and do things on my own if the host prefers it.

I could tell you about my previous travels and some of the unplanned but so funny things to remember.
