As soon as I got to know about the Innovators' Folk High School project, I felt it would be an exciting adventure requiring courage and determination. I didn\u2019t know what to expect, but it turned out to be a wonderful experience with curious and inspiring participants who were eager to share their stories. I also met amazing mentors \u2014 their eyes full of light \u2014 ready to share knowledge, innovations, and possible solutions. They encouraged us to think, create, explore, and search for ways to make the world a better place to live.\n-Tomas, 2023<\/span><\/p>

The program was designed in such a way that it even led us to Denmark. There, we felt the centuries-old contribution of the \"hojskole\" to the everyday life of the community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The experiences, connections, and living with different people opened completely new perspectives, created new friends and opportunities in my life. I am very grateful for the chance to experience this unforgettable adventure, which is still ongoing and seems like it will never end!<\/span><\/p>

Now THAT was an experience! I never thought I\u2019d one day be brave enough to drop everything and go live in a monastery for nearly half a year, just because of an idea!\nWas it worth it? Yes, and absolutely!<\/span><\/p>

It was an adventure filled with travel, sleeping in unexpected places, organising events, facing daily challenges, surviving dramas, learning about the world, doing stand-up shows, and even hauling firewood \u2014 all while building deep connections with amazing people.<\/span><\/p>

My heart is full of joy knowing that this project gave me not only new skills and experiences but also someone I can grow and create with going forward!<\/span><\/p>

Innovators\u2019 Folk High School \u2013 a life-changing experience that gave me strength, inspiration, and motivation to transform my own life. \"Don\u2019t have a hundred coins, have a hundred friends.\"<\/span><\/p>

It was the people \u2013 the new connections I made at Innovators\u2019 Folk High School \u2013 who opened new paths for me and broadened my horizons, helping me to think bigger and act without hesitation. Originally from Vilnius, I now live in Visaginas, where I work in the fields of education, culture, entertainment, and leisure. By the way, I met my future director at a conference where I was presenting together with other members of the School. <\/span><\/p>

Taking part in the program exceeded all my expectations and goals. My loved ones say I\u2019ve become a new person.<\/span><\/p>

Innovators\u2019 Folk High School \u2013 one of the best decisions of my life. It\u2019s a life-changing adventure that helped me grow and inspired me to reach for new goals.<\/p>

Living for 10 weeks with people I had never met before now feels like a mission accomplished. Cooking buckwheat over a campfire, a surprise night hike to a local spring, or organising an event with 80 volunteers in Denmark in just 3 days? These are just a few unforgettable memories that still make me smile and feel alive.<\/p>

I feel that this school opened another door in my heart \u2014 a door to deeper humanity. And here, in Antaliept\u0117, I found a second family.<\/p>
