About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as many places as possible and do it my way. No hotels, renting cars, just a backpack and a sleeping bag!
To meet inspiring interesting, crazy, funny, with experience, talkative with stories to tell. friendly, warm, caring, people, to learn languages, explore new cultures, try new things.

ABOUT ME

I tried to travel as much as possible, but now being here in Dubai I get to do it as my job.
When growing up, my mum didn't allow me to have a dog, and I believe this is why I like to take care of people.
I am a perfect example of a person who doesn't know how to lie.
Even though I'm Polish, I smile all the time, I smile when I am happy, embarrassed, whatever.
People are generally good and I'm a bit naive.

What else do you need to know? I love discovering new places. I like asking questions that may be silly, too personal or self-explanatory. I'm not too much into fashion, my toiletry bag is small. I believe hitch hiking is the answer to the global pollution. I try to live a simple life and minimize my needs and wants. I worked on a few permaculture farms and really like the idea. . I recycle, I love being active, I love walks, local places, and I am the first to run to the swing in the playground, if I see one. I love cooking and have my friends over to try my food. I'm a bit boring sometimes as I like museums and art galleries, plus, I like the usual stuff, which makes me even a bigger bore: reading books, watching movies, and recently discovered the love to surfing
PHILOSOPHY

if in doubt, do it!
