About Me

I'm a graduate of Chemical Engineering and Processing, currently still studying but this time German studies (1st year).
I'm a sociable and outgoing person. I love being with people and enjoy having conversations about various subjects.
For over 4 years I've been a member of youth organization AIESEC. I can definitely say that it changed my perspective on the world a lot. Though I haven't travelled a lot in my life, I can say that I've experienced many journeys within my own city.
"The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence." - it happens often that people underestimate what they actually have but through all this time spent with exchange participants coming to my city I rediscovered this place and started appreciate where I live and what and who surrounds me.
If you would come to my city, unfortunately I cannot host you but I can always offer a small tour if time lets me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always like travelling but it is not for a long time that I feel kinda addicted to it.
I find couchsurfing not only as a way for budget travelling. Since I'm a kind of person who is opened to getting to know other people and different cultures, I think CS gives great opportunity for short cultural exchange and it helps travellers to get to know other countries in deep, not only the surface which ordinary tourists don't even break through.
For now I cannot accept guests but I hope it's gonna change.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love crime films and TV series, also thrillers and comedies. The same it is when it comes to books.
Favourite movies are definitely Inception and Shutter Island (I don't know if the credits should go to directors or Leonardo DiCaprio :D)
I listen to many kinds of music but my favourite band is OneRepublic. I often search for new music through TV series' soundtracks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did Free Fall Drop - falling 30 meters into the net, with nothing but a back protector attached to the body.

Amazing feeling :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Polish language if you want and I'd love to learn a bit of your mother tounge. I really like tongue twisters and I know quite many of them so we can challenge ourselves and try some.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good companion and Polish culture. Maybe I can help you verify some stereotypes about Poles?
