Today I want to thank Aida Murauskaitė for this interview. I have never had such an in-depth conversation before.

It feels as if this interview holds my whole journey so far – from childhood, the poems my mother read to me and my first numbers, to physics, science, poetry, kendo, working with young people and my vision of the Lithuania I would like to see.
Aida, thank you for listening so closely, for your sensitive questions and for helping to weave the different experiences of my life and work so beautifully into one story. After this conversation I felt truly inspired. Thank you!
