CURRENT MISSION

Creating an international NGO with proper ethics to do development and then - to settle down, where? no clue yet!

ABOUT ME

Hmm... It has been always difficult to describe in few words myself. Every day I am not the same! Every day I wish to grow and I do. I do not like to give up, I do not like to complain - but to find solutions. I love challenges and especially overcoming them. That's what make people grow! Sometimes too serious (but only because focused). I enjoy talking to people and getting to know their dreams!

The most important historical moment that can give you a taste of who I am - few years ago I decided to quit the "normal and standard" life (being a lawyer, taking a loan to buy flat, finding husband, etc etc) and do something meaningful. So I quit my job in a law office and went volunteering. And I still continue doing that :-) I want to be part of making this world a better place!

PHILOSOPHY

M.A.D. - making a difference

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host whenever I can (and now I cannot...), I couch surf and participate in discussion in some groups.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Making long-term and lasting relationships was the most inspiring CS experience!

Interests

Africa and development, human rights, volunteering, dancing, a bit of conspiracy ;-)

Lately: african history and art, art in general :)

But most of all - people!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: something inspiring, but sometimes cheesy will do - for a relax time. Bollywood :-)

Music: Ayo, music that I brought from Mozambique, Jazzu (Lithuanian, I strongly recommend to listen!), Tracy Chapman, Queen, Lenny Kravitz, Indian, Ben Harper

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working six months in Mozambique in a rural area in poor condition but with extremely happy people!

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh... Maybe some motivational speech? :-))) Have been working for more than two years as a mentor, so feel quite confident in motivating people to follow their dreams :-) I make really good pancakes :-) Have a nice handwriting, can teach basic piano, can share my traveling experiences.

Would love to learn different dances.
