About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Want to travel through Europe by land - from Krakow down to Croatia, Italy, France, Spain or travel to Mallorca.

ABOUT ME
I went to school on two continents and I have close relatives living in Poland, US, Canada and Switzerland so I which made me like the international community.

I Always enjoy learning a piece of a foreign language or listening to music.

Any girl looking for a dance partner??

PHILOSOPHY

I like the idea introduced in the movie six degrees of separation, where all people on the planet are set apart by only 6 other people.

By the way If you are a foreigner in Kraków and call your insurance because you get a cold , you might end up meeting me as a professional :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used couchsurfing a lot, when I was in University for hosting guests, had a lot of guests !

The countries where my guests came from included:
1. Poland 2. France 3. Russia 4. Germany 5. USA 6. Sweden 7. Spain 8. Luxemburg 9. French Guiana? 10. Brasil 11. England

My experiences through this website were mostly memorable and interesting. Almost all of my guests stayed in my memory!

Meeting and talking to foreigners is something I need for my internal balance for living in Poland.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had multiple guests in the past and had various experiences, all pleasant.

I both still host and hope to travel being hosted soon !

I have a sentiment for brasilians ! I enjoy the culture, music and food, and I am learning portuguese so If you are a brasilian or portuguese there's a good chance I want to host you :)

Interests

Anyone looking for a dance partner??

European history, Languages (especially portuguese!)
Like music and dance.

Food wise - I am gluten free with no exception. But I use substitute flour if needed.

Music, Movies, and Books

Apart from the general radio music, I have a sentiment for Brasilian music.

Favorite movies I should name the movies about travelling and enjoying life, like Y tu mama tambien, or L'Auberge espagnole (pl. smak zycia), polish movie "all that I love".

Also like the idea in Six degress of separation.

I sometimes watch funny shows like big bang theory or family guy and SCRUBS :)

I like South America would be great to visit sometime.

Books: Bogumil Hrabal, Mario Vargas Llosa, "the Royal Babylon", Medicus de Saragossa, Therry Pratchett.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in the US and went to school for a few years there.

Spontaneously travelled through Great Britain with CS
Had a Brasilian flatmate - who taught me lots about that culture.

Witnessed and helped film an artistic movie in the Polish mountains as well as in London while being hosted.

I worked in a hospital for years- working directly with COVID .

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you where to go to get the best out of your visit in Kraków.

If you live in Kraków I would like to find a partner who would consider dance classes.
