So far, could you give a comment on your study experience at VMU?

I think that answering by saying “awesome unforgettable experience” is not enough to express the wonderful emotions that I can live and feel everyday in Lithuania.
Are you happy about your decision to study in VMU?

I chose VMU and I like it, because of the program that the university offers. The subjects are extremely interesting, the system is flexible and contributes to form active students and not simple listeners. At the same time, the tuition fees are reasonable and that’s a very good point as well. 
If you had to choose an animal to describe the real essence of the Lithuanians, what would you say?

Dolphin (because of the friendliness of most of Lithuanians).

If you had to select three adjectives to describe your current study experience at Vytautas Magnus University, what would you say?

International, Funny, Friendly.

If you had to describe VMU using a car model (Ferrari, Mercedes, FIAT, etc.), what would you select?

Undoubtedly a Ferrari.

Please indicate the most exotic things that you experienced or noticed when living in Lithuania?

Discovering various cultures from different continents, thanks to the activities organized by the university as well as by other organizations that take care of the international students. For the language lovers, as I am, VMU offers the chance to learn more than 30 languages (mostly European, but other exotic languages like Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Kyrgyz, just to mention some, are also taught). This was really like a dream for me. In fact, I was looking for such an Institute of Foreign Languages for many years, and finally I found it.

What are the most surprising things that you experienced in Lithuania?

Without any doubt the most surprising thing was to find here in Kaunas nearly 70-80% of people able to speak in English at a good level. Before coming to Lithuania, I was afraid to meet communication barriers, but few days after my arrival, I was pleased to experience the contrary, leaving aside my fears.

What are your expectations or wishes after your studies at VMU?

I really hope to find a job that will make me happy.
