Motivation
Lithuania has always been important to me and this has not changed during my years of studying, working and living in various European countries. During those seven years, I have been studying tourism and sustainable development, and at the same time I have been looking at Lithuania to see how it is doing in these areas. Recently, I have been watching from afar and enjoying the emergence of interesting and creative tourism services, cultural and environmental initiatives that are sprouting up not only in Vilnius, but also in other Lithuanian cities and towns. I realised that I wanted to be part of this transformation.
When it was time to look for new meaningful challenges, I knew that Create for Lithuania was the place where I could find it and where I could build a sustainable Lithuania together with others.
