Hi! We are Aleksandra and Mariia, two students living in Poznań. We met while both of us were looking for a new place to live and decided to rent an apartament together. Since the beggining we felt like best friends! We share hobbies such as crocheting, cooking and going to jam sessions. We love making new connections with all kinds of people! Best ways for socializing for us is going to jam sessions (or making our own with neighbors), visiting nearby events or just exploring the city!!

We love the nature, spent the whooole summer in hammocks at a park beside our house, playing frisbee and making new friends. We went crazy at a festival, going to concerts or hiding in a forest.

This intense summer made both of us look for another - bigger adventures.

A: I love to sew, my grandma teached me making clothes when i was 8 years old! I write in my diary a lot, cook traditional polish food (i think i got this skill from my mum and it’s going through my blood!), meet friends everyday. I study french philology and languages are my biggest interest, on the weekends i work at a pub - mostly pouring beer to local customers (which i feel like are all my friends and uncles!) or tourists with which i try to use different languages that i know/im learning.

M: I've been drawing and doing all kinds of handcraft for my entire life:) i can do tattoos, nails, paintings, sewing, crocheting and many more! i love cats more than anything and the happy news is im going to be a cat mom soon! also my favourite thing to do in free time is just going on a walks exploring the city, but i think its time for a bigger adventure now ;)
