I'm originally from Warsaw, Poland, currently living in Freiburg, Germany, obsessed with art, cities and coffee.

For the most part I'm an introvert, but there's something about meeting new people from around the world that brings me energy. I love learning languages and being creative.

A few things that make me the happiest:
a cup of good coffee to start the day
visiting a new city
travelling
the feeling of 'click' with a newly met person
swimming in a clear blue sea
cooking
perfectly ripe watermelon on a summer day
yoga/stretching
helping someone in need
dancing like nobody's watching
painting and forgetting about time
hot shower on a cold winter day
holding an entire conversation in a foreign language with a native speaker

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Wherever I go, I want to meet new people, those living locally as well as those visiting. If you'd like to meet up, don't hesitate to message me!

In the last 6 years I got to meet the CS Community in Oxford, Paris, Sardinia and many more - by being hosted and participating in local meetups - and now I feel like a part of it. It's a great way to meet people who can be very different but always eager to help, open-minded and constantly learning.
