Hi :))

I am half Polish, half English but have two citizenships - Polish and USA.

I’m a cheerful and friendly person and I enjoy hearing other people’slife stories and sharing mine! :)

I love to cook - my specialities are risotto, quiche and pea soup.
I’d say I’m a flexitarian which, in case you are unfamiliar with the term, means that I don’t eat meat much, except for the occasional steak :D Because I love steak!

Travelling is one of my biggest passions, I’m planning to go backpacking through Europe :) I’ve been to Hawaii, western USA, Mauritius, Egypt, Turkey, Morocco and a fair number of places in Europe, including France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany and of course Poland, my home country! :) I’d love to go to South America and Canada at some point in the future!

I also enjoy reading fiction (mostly crime - big Agatha Christie fan) and psychology-related literature as well as travel literature.

Photography is another thing I find fun, I have an Olympus OMD E-M10 Mark II, if that means anything to you :D

I’ve done quite a lot of mountain hiking in Poland and Slovakia, and I adore a good board game.

I also like meditation and yoga and I’m learning o play the ukulele!

If I were to pick a philosophy it would be “Make peace, not war” :)) ❤️

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Because it’s a great way of helping each other out, meeting new people and sharing skills and life experience! :)

Music
I am a huge fan of The Lumineers, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros and Vance Joy - they have this hippie -vanlife-road-trip vibe that I adore!

Hozier is also awesome, both for his lyrics and music.

Besides them I also enjoy Elvis Presley, old-timey music;) Dire Straits and The Cranberries are great too!

As you can see I’m having a hard time limiting myself haha, so much good music to go around!
