[9 Apr 2013 | vienas komentaras | ]

Please welcome Kristina! We met her in Town Hall sq. in a very snowy April’s afternoor. She is psychology student and barista at Vero Cafe. Music is very important part of her life – singing in Vilnius Gediminas Technical University choir “Gabija”, creating her own songs, playing piano and guitar and jamming with friends are her top favorite activities.
.
Susipažinkite su Kristina, psichologijos studente, kuri spėja studijuoti, gaminti skanias kavas, muzikuoti, keliauti, bei visada turi papasakoti įvairiausių įdomybių!
