About Me

I am stil learning who I am, what I like and who I want to be. Meeting other people, listening to their opinions and stories is something that helps me in it the most.

Seing always the bright sight and smile is the best I'm trying to give people I meet and this is something I also like about others :)

Sometimes I can get little crazy and loud but just a few moments later, if the situation requires it, I can be serious and queit. I consider myself an open-minded and easy-going person eager to talk about every topic you can imagine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love travelling!

And the best part about it is to meet people! Learning from other's experience is something I really appreciate in couchsurfing and I strongly believe, that the only way to fully enjoy visiting new countries is to meet the locals.

I am not very experienced in couchsurf, but I have already hosted some people, also from abroad (Mexico, USA and Taiwan)! However not all of them through this service, so u can't read their opinions :( I also always live in a rented room so it is hard for me to offer enough space to stay, however my friends and family stayed with me in such uncomfy conditions many times :D

Interests

For a pretty long time my greatest interest is folk (I am a member of Folk Song and Dance Ensemble), so everytime I meet somebody new I am trying to pass my love to polish folk culture and know more about other nationalities' traditions.

Recently I got excited about kickboxing! Didn't get any serious injuries yet but a little bit of pain is something I'm getting used to.

I am also reading a little about psychology recently, which I find really important in social life of every each of us!

Besides that I can get exciting about almost everything, so tell me about your hobbies and I will listen carefully!
I can also play the guitar, so if you like singing, we could make a band :D

Music, Movies, and Books

I can appreciate all kinds of music, but my favorite one is rock ImI. I just love live concerts, expecially on the open air (festivals and so on) and trying to participate as often as possible.

Movies - recently I fell in love in Stanley Kubrick's works and because he didn't stick to any specific flow, I don't have favorite kind of movies either. His best movie - Full Metal Jacket, magnificent.

Books - fantasy and the only and best "Witcher" - yes, that one, which was the inspiration for the PC game :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhicking! Wow, still can't believe it's so easy and fun :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love my country and love to share information about its history and culture, which is special and not so well known.

We learn for all our lifes and the amount of things we can learn is just unlimited and I am curious about everything, so please teach me what you are good at :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Curiosity about them, their adventures/lifes and places they live in. I can also offer some stories from my travels and life experiences . I can also play a guitar a little bit and sing, especially polish folk songs :D
