Interests
In 2017 I joined NGO Young Folks, and since than me life changed completely.
I visited Barcelona, Palermo, Vienna, Maribor, Keila, Kaunas, Aghveran, Stockholm, Istambul and more new places.
I have been volunteering and learned that time and emotions you give are more important that financial benefits.
Many of dreams came true:
I was a German teacher and developed my own program to teach youngsters in a non-formal atmosphere and in a way that no school does. Not only they learned basics of German grammar and vocabulary, but also I experienced being a teacher, taking responsibility and developing empathy. A truly valuable experience.
I shot many commercial videos for NGO as well as created various photoshoots and documented a lot of events. I had an opportunity to become a volunteer and photographer on different conferences, public events and concerts. This is how I expanded my social network and got to know a lot about events' backstage.
