CURRENT MISSION

To live (to speak, to listen, to act) in love and light.

ABOUT ME

I have been blessed to have had a very diverse personal, educational and professional experience: from growing up in post-soviet Lithuania, studying in prestigious private college in the USA and creating the PR strategies for the enterprise in Cambodia all the way to conducting an academic research in Japan, networking with the local governors in Azerbaijan and residing in the monastery in Myanmar. Immersing myself in such versatile environments made me aware, empathetic and adaptive to the different cultural dynamics, values, behavioural rules, and perceptions.

I am currently working as a Senior Project Manager and Stakeholder Engagement Lead in the field of Adult Education. I am also volunteering with Refugees and Asylum seekers, and learning the basic Arabic. I am passionate about art, culture, traveling and love meeting local people and getting to know their stories!

PHILOSOPHY

"Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor. . . . Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting. "

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because everyone has a story. It might or might not be a love story. It could be a story of dreams, friendship, hope, survival or even death. The air is full of stories. And every story is worth telling.
