I can't really say much about myself, since I'm still trying to figure myself out. Actually I love meeting new people and getting inspirations from them - now it is time to live, so that I'd have experiences to create something worthwhile from later. I like trying out new things, even if it frightens me, I like getting over my fears and insecurities. I don't know, if I'm interesting to talk to, but I definitely like listening to other people's stories, waiting for mine to happen :)

I have graduated Philosophy BA in Vytautas Magnus University and now I'm working in the Lithuanian Writers Union in Kaunas. I also work as an editor and stylist for a culture magazine "Nemunas". I love taking pictures with my old Russian analogue camera "Zenit" and others, traveling, geocaching, bouldering, slacking, hiking... You name it!

Talking about my favorite music, movies and books, it would take too long to list them all, but I'll try to mention a few. I'm crazy about Jack Kerouac, his road stories and unbelievably complicated sentences, so yeah, "The road" would make it to my top list. I'm fascinated with E.M.Remarque, it would be hard to decide between "The black obelisk" and "Three comrades", his sense of humor and sense of the fragility of human soul is amazing. I love the way how J.R.R.Martin creates complex characters and twists the plot in "The song of ice and fire" saga, I also loved "The lord of the rings", read everything I could of Haruki Murakami, I can't believe I almost forgot Ray Bradbury and his amazing anti-utopias, and just a few years ago I've discovered fantastic, smart and funny stories written by Douglas Adams! But I'm getting started here, so next :)

Music I listen to depends on my mood - sometimes I can spend hours listening to Pink Floyd, Guns'n'roses or Joe Cocker, sometimes a good day is a day with Bob Marley's songs, other days I just turn on the radio and see where it takes me, sometimes I enjoy French classic, such as Edith Piaf or Mireille Mathieu, though ZAZ and Raphael are also great, other days I sit-dance to Parov Stelar or Grammatik, and yes, I also enjoy Mumford and sons, Clean Bandit etc. Just please, please, no Skrillex :)

Lately I've been kinda lazy, if we talk about watching movies, but you might say I'm a Tarantino's fan, I adore road movies, such as The way, Into the wild, Knocking on heaven's door, I enjoyed The Terminal, Barefoot (the German one), Before the sunset, LOTR and many many other movies. Feel free to always suggest me a new one :)

Every postcard is welcome, but I'd especially love postcards with:

- sheep (I collect them)
- unicorns
- cartoons
- funny / ironic / humorous postcards
- art
- impressionism
- retro
- flowers / cactus
- artistic photographs
- pictures of your country and people
- starry sky
- mountains, nature with lakes, rivers and seas
- hiking trails
- slacking
- unusual sports
- anything you find cute or surprising

Thanks a lot, happy postcrossing!
