ABOUT ME

I am curious, quirky, silly, at times thoughtful. I am determinedly trying to do everything at the same time, inavoidably kind of failing. I am quite the nerd (the cool kind I've been told), when it comes to.. just about everything except electronics where i accept my own uselessness.This year I am taking a year to see the world/sing/figure out what I want to do. So far it has been the best thing I've ever decided to do! Interrail, touring with a folk choir through western Europe. Meeting so many incredible people.

PHILOSOPHY

We're only here for such a short while - make the best of it.We have incredibly little control over what comes our way in life, and all the control over what we make of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I haven't had the joy of hosting someone. I was hosted this summer when doing interrail though. I hope to be able to do hosting and more surfing when I get back home permanently after my year off.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted by Nina in Gdynia this summer and had an absolutely fabulous time. It was one of my last days of interrail and all I can say is: way to end on a high note! :)
