19/07/2024 - Faces of EGL

When not in the office, Elizabeta is dedicated to her family. She enjoys a life immersed in nature and all sorts of sports activities they can get in the countryside. As a mother of four, there’s never a dull moment. Her family lives on a small farm in central Slovenia, 30 km east of Ljubljana. Situated on a hilltop with a sunny outlook, they wake up to beautiful sunrises and enjoy being surrounded by nature. The family hosts a small bunch of animals on the farm and spends a lot of time outdoors, exploring the woods and playing in the fields.

Elizabeta loves reading and is delighted that her kids are also picking up the hobby. The family enjoys ice skating, being outdoors, and appreciating the peace, away from the noise and traffic of city life. During winter, the family can enjoy the best sledding slope, which stays frozen all season, providing memorable moments of winter fun.

Elizabeta is with the Slovenian National Agency MOVIT since 2011. Her work activities focus on training, programs, events, and fairs. Two years ago, she began working on a project life-cycle in Volunteering and KA2 within Erasmus+ and ESC programs. She also works with training activities and is in charge of their NA’s pool of trainers. Her favorite part of her job is connecting with people, whether directly or through training activities. She finds joy in supporting beneficiaries and witnessing the positive impact of the work, knowing they are changing lives for the better. This brings her happiness.
