ABOUT ME

Open and sociable, quite easy-going, interested in almost everything that is going around. I theoretically lived in Bielsko-Biała and Kraków, but practically I've been travelling since 10 years here and there, living in Moldova and Turkey (ah, I just love the city).

I just finished my master programme in geography. I totally loved it! Geography opened a whole new perspective for me, and I can't look at the world as I used to any more. If you don't know what to do and have a lot of free time - just start studying geography, you won't regret it! It was also one of the best time of my life as I got active in a EGEA European Geography Association (student-run NGO). I can honestly say: youth work rocks! Totally!

Besides, love sailing... there is nothing more beautiful than the open see (I haven't sailed the ocean yet, that's why). Makes you feel really free :)
Hmmh... what else? Nature - all kinds of nature, from jungle to deserts, all kinds of animals (just not the leeches, please!!!), hiking and camping, but also exploring the cities... they can be very adorable and sensational creatures as well!

I love to learn, the best way to learn is by experience so I try to experience a lot ;)

PHILOSOPHY

We cannot know, so don't ask
what end the gods have set for us;
In futile Babylonian fortune-telling
put either no trust.
How much better to endure whatever comes,
whether Jupiter grants us additional winters
or whether this is our last,
which now wears out the Tuscan Sea
upon the barrier of the cliffs!
Be wise, strain the wine;
since time is short:
limit that far-reaching hope!
Even while we speak, envious time has passed:
seize the day, putting as little trust
as possible in tomorrow!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not so experience yet, as I live in a small city with not such a big crowd visiting it. Before, when I was travelling around Europe, I mostly visited my friends from EGEA. I will right now start travelling in Asia, and hope to get involved in CS community more and more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every day is amazing :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach polish and share travelling experience, sailing if there is a possibility. I know a lot about Georgia since I've been there more then ten times, so if you go there, i'll gladly pass some tips.

I would love to learn everything about the places I'm visiting, so the more you tell me - the better.
I would love to share great moments of my life with great people around the world.
