About Me

Hello Everyone,

I am a friendly and open minded person that just joined couch surfing network. I enjoy staying active and I am about to set on my wee adventure around Europe and hopefully Asia.

I was born in Poland however at young age my family moved to Scotland which became my home. Growing up with two cultures helped me discover at young age the beauty each society can hold and ever since I fell in love in discovering different cultures and national customs and most of all different people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing to meet like minded people and I hope to find good friends on the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's hard to choose one thing especially I feel there is so much ahead of me. However here is a short list of things I could say I am proud of:
-Skydive at age 16
-Bag-packed around Europe at age 17
-Spend one year living in Amsterdam
-Spend month climbing peaks of Mid-Pyrenees in France
-Spend summer travelling between festivals in the UK volunteering at welfare tents
-Hitchhiked from Sheffield to Edinburgh

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some good baking recipes or I can teach you anything about mixology (cocktails) and coffee! These are my two domains. I simply adore learning new things, once I am fascinated by a subject I want to know everything there is to know about it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to think I am approachable and easy going person and I do like a good chat. I am very tidy and respectful towards others. With my hosts I can share my baking skills as well as a good story :D I am very independent person which hates to be a burden to people so if you don't want to show me the city that's fine by me if you do even better :)
