About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Consider others

ABOUT ME

I think I'm full of contradictions. I like to plan everyday day to the minute, but then do something completely spontaneous. I have a clear idea of what I believe in, but enjoy being challenged and taken out of my comfort zone, in physical activity or verbal discussion. Sometimes I speak my mind and sing too much :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply, but question everything.
And always look on the bright side of life nai nai nai :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Singing along to the Rolling Stones in a crowd of thousands of people. Also any time I'm on water or in the forest is amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can easily teach English and Lithuanian languages. Also how to cook some Lithuanian dishes. And I can tell you the true meaning of Schrodinger's cat :)

I'm open to learn anything, but especially languages and technology and arts-related things.
