About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning as much as I can about the world, new people and cultures. Shearing experience and improving all the time.

ABOUT ME

Well...One of my friends told me that I'm like a bird, but she wasn't sure what kind of a bird :P My head is all the time full of ideas so that sometimes even I don't know what will be my next step. I'm social, spontaneous, easy-going and open-minded person. I smile a lot and I try to make it contagious.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in a way, so that you will not have to discover just before your death that you didn't know how to live. ( It isn't mine, though)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Even though I didn't host a lot till now, I met plenty of interesting people, I learned about their interests, cuisine and differences between our countries, for example I didn't know that there are still nomads in Malesia ! Some of my couch-friends turned into very good friends of mine.

Couchsurfing is for me also a way of life and it represents certain way of thinking, the will for true sharing with others, exchange between cultures and countries that happens on a very personal level.

I hope to be able to host more in the future as I have finally a nice apartment in Paris, so when only I come back there for a while I'm waiting for other gripping adventures with couchsurfing.

Interests

Photography is more than half of my life, that's the rest: yoga, traveling, salsa, reading books, learning new languages, eating (mostly sweets).

Music, Movies, and Books

Films: there are few that I really enjoyed and watched more than once, as Dead Poets Society, old and some new Woody Allen's movies.

Music: jazz, classical music, also some country and folk, and obviously salsa, but I hardly know any titles not even mentioning band's names.

Books: I love reading and in my room I have long list of titles I would like to and will read in future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Painted my own sky on my ceiling, learned french in 2 years, walked on a frozen sea in Finland, observed whales in Canada, walked 300 km pilgrimage in France and lived with an indigenous tribe in the Philippines.

Teach, Learn, Share

To start with, happy to share some great stories and good energy, practice some yoga together or teach you a bit if you are interested ! I can also teach some Polish, some salsa steps, maybe also how to understand art or how to paint, draw or do any other creative things. I have also some really nice recipies which I may exchange for some new from different cuisine :P

What I Can Share with Hosts

A smile, a late night or early morning talk, dinner with a glass of wine, interesting websites to watch in a free time or a walk in the city where we are going to meet. Among hopefully many, many others !
