About Me

CURRENT MISSION:

Came back from Cambodia after spending the entire pandemic on a small island- back to a big city life in Warsaw! Started a real estate agency. Time for vaycaycay. WHO KNOWS HOW TO DANCE MERENGUE?!

ABOUT ME:

I'm a 32yo girl with a big appetite for adventures, travels and knowledge. Living now a colourful life in Warsaw! Moving around Europe/ working remotely or on spot t; Through the years, I found out how many beautiful places and valuable people are waiting for me. Sunrises and sunsets are my big love. Long talks>long faces.

I can teach you many things - as well as you can teach me probably even more. WE ARE BOOKS, hope you're interesting ;) I used to hitch-hike a lot. Can give you some guidelines if in need. :)

Be the best you can.
Be hyperactive. (update 2022: wow, I can't believe I knew about my undiagnosed ADHD 10 years ago xD)
Be the moment.
Be happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

You're pleased to sleep in my place and I'm pretty sure, You won't regret hosting me. It's all about trust and honesty. So I believe that couchsurfing project is teaching how we can change the world into a better place - united and friendly. (2010)
UPDATE (XI 2013):
Despite the fact that I really treat that place ideologically, as a very powerful tool to change people's thinking and to widen their horizons, now I believe that's even more a possibility to find people to keep in your heart. And that's lovely. :)
UPDATE (VII 2018)
I live and work in Venice. YOU ARE WELCOME TO ask about accommodation but I'm not always available.
UPDATE (VI 2022)
SURVIVED PANDEMIC, that's for starters. Back on CS, let me know if in need of accomodation in Warsaw, we need to help eachother in these difficult times :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I believe I did a lot of unbelievable things. Let me tell you about some of them over a coffee, if you're interested :)

Teach, Learn, Share
