About Me

I consider myself a smart girl, but I never know what to write in this "About Me" blank space :P
I am definitely positive, open-minded and creative.

I live in my own photo studio :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I simply love traveling and I want to travel as much as I can.
I'm an animal lover, nature lover, architecture lover. Not the "all-inclusive", not the "museums and churches" type of tourist. More of a traveller, I guess. This is why when I travel, I prefer to ask (or ask and meet, that is even better) locals ;) When it comes to sightseeing, I am interested in the best photography spots and all the great lookout points possible.

Music, Movies, and Books

Let's say I will give two examples of each, because listing them all would end up in being a heavy book itself :)
Books:
"Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn
"A year in the Merde" by Stephen Clarke, for francophone lovers. Read, if you want to laugh hard :)
Movies:
"One Day" with Anne Hathaway. The best film about love I have ever seen!
"A la folie pas du tout" with Audrey Tautou. That film will blow your mind
Music:
"Love you to" by The Beatles
"Underwater Love" by Smoke City

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2013 I was teaching English in Hyderabad, India ;) This whole journey, living in India for those few months was definitely the craziest thing I have ever done. A big deal for a 20 year old girl :)
... but I do believe that something amazing doesn't have to be huge. One freezing December day, I bought a whole big jar of Nutella for a poor, homeless guy.
I adopted a stray black cat and a puppy that was left in a forest to die.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a Master of Linguistics, so language exchange always sounds like a plan to me :)
I can help you improve your photography skills (I own a photo studio)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help you discover Poland, my homeland.
I can give you tips - about where to go, what's worth seeing, how to get there safe and in one piece, how to travel around Poland smart and low-cost!
I can host you in my flat, in the city center of Łódź, Poland (unless you're allergic to animal's fur)
I can also share my experience from traveling around Europe :)
I can tell you how to survive in India !

What is more, I offer artistic photo sessions, I search for extraordinary, interesting faces and stories behind them :)
