ABOUT ME

I like to challenge myself and try out my limits. I am a seeker person, always learning, only going forward, looking for new experiences in my spiritual and daily life. I am from Lithuania, Vilnius living now in India in Mysore.

I have studied Fine Art and Painting, I am Naturopath (Alternative Medicine Therapist), Yoga Teacher, Homeopath and Interpreter.
Since I have been practicing yoga I have done a lot of things I'd never considered doing before, like teaching a class, for instance, or getting up in front of a room full of people to speak, my confidence changed. Yoga taught me to be more optimistic and just trust - deep trust to Life.., to be grateful for what I have, has helped me accept myself. Non-attachment - letting go is part of life. Yoga has given me courage that I didn't even know I had. I am really in love with yoga!!

I studied at Vilnius college Fine Art: Ceramic Technology, Art Criticism and in Art Academy in Madrid: Painting. I love to paint, draw, sculpture, photography, ceramic, all kind of different arts..
I lived most of my life in another country before coming to Spain, and now to India.
I love traveling so much and meeting new interesting people all over the world. I am open-minded and people loving person but also love to spend time alone and disconnect from everything.
I like all different kind of arts: music, dance, painting, photography, cinema, poetry, writing, being in nature, I love dogs, for ever in love with Literature, books are my Big Love..:)
I love jazz, electronic and classic music or just listening to silence..
I am raw vegan for several years, I love nature and animals, I grew up in country side in a very beautiful place close to the forest and lake, I am a bit crazy and unpredictable person, I adore literature, I love F.Dostoevsky, F.Kafka, A. Camus, A. Chekhov, G. Garcia Marquez, etc., I adore good cinema, classic music and I feel very happy if I can share all of these things with other people.

So.. I study, I do yoga, I paint, I ride my bike, I am singing specially when I have a bad mood:), I feel rain.., I laugh a lot, I try to think less and breathe more, I speak with the trees sometimes and like to hug them, I love animals, I love people even sometimes it is so difficult. I love cinema very very much.. I can watch movies all day. I love flee markets and talk to the local people there spending hours.., I love farmers markets: I could spend all my money on fruits and veggies, I appreciate so much work of those people and I want to support them as much as I can. Is very important what they are doing for the planet and for each of us.
I love being on the road - I love to feel being in the moment, meeting new people, I feel at home anywhere I am going cause all world is my home..

PHILOSOPHY

Everything you are experiencing in this moment, whatever it is, is exactly what you need for your personal growth. Trust it.
The secret to being in the right place at the right time is knowing you always are.. Like today.. Like NOW.. Trust the timing of your life.
