or some weird and wonderful things about me:

- MSc (Master's) Economics, Belgrade

- Became a published author in 1991 - in Yugoslavia, Belgrade, Serbia. Natasa Pantovic Cooperative Law with a self-legal-help book: Contracts for Companies and Individuals examining the Yugoslav Co-operative Law.  

- The early eMalta years saw a heavy investment by Government in its ICT infrastructure to transform Malta into an Information Society. As Management Consultant working within the MEU, in the Office of Prime Minister, I worked on large number of management and HR consulting projects throughout the various Ministries and Government Institutions.

- While heading a large UK IT company (Crimsonwing, later KPMG) that has set-up its operations in Malta, I was in charge of expanding its markets in Europe, and was invited by Malta Enterprise, as a Guest Seaker to a series of presentations detailing the experiences that the large 'blue chip' companies had subcontracting their IT operations to Malta. As a woman, and an IT Executive, travelling around our little planet, my memory takes me to many venues in London, Cardif, Manchester, Milan, Brussels, Rome, Amsterdam, presenting our company's large UK IT case studies (Safeway, Banks, etc.) while at the same time promoting Malta IT, but the most impressive was the Euro-Med Summit in Marseille (France) where I was a Guest Speaker in an Experts Panel Discussion addressing Ministers and Business Heads from around the Euro-Med region with the Presentation Strategies for Growth in the Euro-Med Region Euro-mediterranean Business Summit 2006.

- After helping Father George who was living and working in Malta and Africa, help him build a school in a remote area of Ethiopia, entered the most amazing world of parenthood adopting two angels from Ethiopia as a single mother (now imagine that!). My children Ema and Andrej are my biggest Conscious Parenting teachers. They love and train basketball, play piano, act within a Music Theatre Group and were Chess Champions of Malta.

- My soul is the one of a nomad and during my life-time I visited more than 50 countries, set foot on all the continents, and lived in five: Serbia, Malta, Uk, Holland and New Zealand. During my life-time I visited Rome more than 30 times and I hope to visit this magic city another 30 times, I explored all the corners of Europe: visiting Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany 20 times. My friends are from all around the globe. My home is in Amsterdam, London, Belgrade, Sliema wherever I found my heart beating the same rhythm.

- For the consciousness researchers lovers, some of the more intriguing pages talk about 25 years of Applied Psychology explorations, and my research journey through Theosophy, Zen, Tantra, Antroposophy, Yoga and my vegetarian life-style where I danced barefoot in the rain, meditated for hours in search of God,

- As a volunteer organized 6 Body, Mind and Spirit Festivals, a Children Festival, International Vegetarian Festival, read 1,000s of spiritual books and as a Volonteer was within an organising committee of the 10 days Megalithic Conference in Malta

- The world of love and relationships is deep and soul enriching and I had a most amazing opportunity to explore this male-female game in over 18 years of relationships. I now regularly publish Articles on Relationships, Mindfulness and Personal Growth

An international, inter-disciplinary conference with a series of workshops enabling us to make the imaginative leap into the Neolithic worldview. Speakers at the conference ranged from archaeologists, psychologists and artists, to researchers in esoteric subjects. The conference presented new results of research, and encouraged further debate and discussion. Presentations at the conference venue, field trips to the temples or the workshops had a long list of renowned guest speakers from the archaeological field, both academic and independent, including such world-renowned researchers and authors as Graham Hancock. Each afternoon a bus took the participants into one or more of the megalithic temples and other prehistoric sites. The experiential thread of the Conference included esoteric workshops, poetry writing, story telling, spiral walking, trance-dancing as a group shamanic activity run by Body Temple, from New York. The Saturday 10th November, gives a very good overview of a typical day. That day the speakers included Dr Anton Mifsud (on Malta as Atlantis), Peter Marshall the main organizer / CEO of the Conference (on Malta’s role in the lost civilizations of Europe from England), Dr Louis Lagana of the University of Malta (on the influence of prehistoric Malta on modern art), and Erik Davis, author and journalist from California. The Saturday afternoon our field research was inside the Hypogeum. A specially formed team of researchers was recording the sounds vibrations of various modern and ancient instruments within this 11 meters underground 7,000 years old Temple. I was privileged to be meditating inside the Oracle Room during these spiritual experiements.
