TRAVELING NOW

Hi,

my name is Ugne. I`m from small (but beautiful) Baltic country Lithuania. I was working as a guide at the Belfry and Crypts of Vilnius (our capital city) Cathedral and spent all my hollidays on travelling. Traveling is like an oxygen for my lungs and it`s never enough. So I decided to take a gap year and get my backpack ready for a long long trip around the world. I think that life is too short and the world is too wonderfull to mis its beauty by staying only in one place. I`m really happy to have friends who are traveling together.

Some pictures and stories of the World trip are here:

I would say I`m pretty calm person, I do not like noisy parties and things like that.
Wild nature, learning new things, board games and stories are the things I`m keen on.

Hola :)

Me gustan las montañas, diferentes culturas y personas, musica y historias de viaje.
Soy la persona tranquila y amistoso.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Experience of Cs touched my point of view. I met a lot of good people in my trips and now I want to give back my "debt" and host guests when I can.

Also Cs means a community for me. I`m learning to trust, share and discover here.

On the other hand, I`m also traveling and sometimes need a roof and friendly company. I love to meet local people and hear their stories. This is growing me up.
