Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be available for coffee or drink....and meeting new people will be amazing.......Remember, in order to help break down the
walls between cultures we need to learn about each other. Once we
understand each other, there won't be reasons left to hate. .....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just wonderful :)

Music, Movies, and Books

My best book: The Pianist is a memoir of the Polish musician of Jewish origins Władysław Szpilman, written and elaborated by a Polish author Jerzy Waldorff, who met Szpilman in 1938 in Krynica and became a friend of him. As the book is a memoir of Szpilman, it's written in the first person. He tells how he survived the German deportations of Jews to extermination camps, the 1943 destruction of the Warsaw Ghetto, and the 1944 Warsaw Uprising during World War II.
