Description
Hello, my name is Ugnė, and I am from Lithuania.
This January, I completed a five-year Master's degree in Law.
However, my life and energy revolve around traveling, an active lifestyle, and helping others, which is why I decided to dedicate my time to my passions instead of spending it in a field that would hold me back.
In my free time, I engage in sports, hiking, skiing, and similar activities, so I am most interested in opportunities related to movement and sports.
At the same time, I am empathetic, friendly, and find meaning in helping others, which makes me well-suited for community-based activities.
I have experience working in a restaurant, court, and law firm. Additionally, before starting my university studies, I volunteered in Malta at a guesthouse where I performed various artistic tasks.
I am hardworking, responsible, and strive for the best results. I am looking for a field where I can gain experience, learn new professions, and connect with a new community.

My experience at the sanctuary was deeply positive and meaningful. From the very first moment, I was welcomed with open arms and treated with genuine warmth and care. I quickly felt part of a family, even though my stay was short.

The volunteer tasks were light and enjoyable – walking the dogs, cuddling the cats, and helping with household… read more chores. I was often asked if I needed rest, if it was too hot, or if I felt okay. Since afternoons in Malaysia tend to be very hot, most of the tasks were done in the early morning and again in the evening. That meant the hottest part of the day was free for rest, reflection, or personal time. It never felt like "free labor" – I felt appreciated and cared for. I was invited into their daily lives and helped where needed.

I was given a clean private room with a shower. Before another volunteer arrived, they even asked if I was okay with it. We had separate rooms – there was no question of sharing a bed. My personal space and comfort were always respected.

I must mention, Sister Raj prepares incredibly tasty food every day (I miss our sweet afternoon tea time..). Plus, there was always food available in the kitchen, so you never have to worry about being hungry…

Additionally, Dr. Karma warmly invited me to her daily meditation sessions, where she taught me techniques I could use in everyday life. I also attended her Buddhist classes and a Buddhist event. Together with Sister Raj, she took me to Sikh ceremonies and a local temple. They taught me a lot by explaining everything along the way. These cultural experiences were unforgettable.

The animals at the sanctuary are deeply loved and well cared for. Every dog and cat is calm, safe, and treated with so much compassion. Even Roxy, the most energetic dog, was easy to walk..

I understand that others may have had different expectations, but my experience could not have been more different from the recent comment left here. I can only speak from my own time at the sanctuary – and I felt seen, supported, and inspired. This was not only a place to help, but also a space where I received a lot in return.

This experience gave me so much – spiritually, emotionally, and culturally. I’m incredibly grateful for everything and often think about the amazing people I met. In just a short time, I found a second family in Malaysia. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💛

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Ugne, our very first Workawayer and we couldn’t be more grateful for her time with us. From the very beginning, she impressed us with her reliability, discipline, and outstanding work ethic. Every task she took on was done with care, responsibility, and a genuine desire to contribute meaningfully.
