About Me

Overall positive, a dreamer, tend to be idealistic. I am passionate about people, languages, feminsim, society, and Latin America in many different aspects. Finding my own ways of travelling for learning, for freedom.
Currently intenting to deal with writing phobia and graduate. Then looking forward to the big year travel in Latin America I've been dreaming about. This year having a chance to spend almost 3 months in this continent.
Aspiring psychologyst, converted from linguistic studies. Also, aspiring to develop musically.
Terrible student. Even though I enjoy studying, and I am fascinated by subjects in my university course.
Journaling daily and loving written expression. Although, struggling with immense writing phobia.
Guilty air transport user; guilty vegeterian - part-time vegan. Thinking about ethics, and looking for answers on what changes are necessary globally and locally.
The last three years I've lived and studied in the UK- Southampton. The upcoming year I will be in Spain - Castellon de la Plana on Erasmus. So usually Im not available to meet up in Warsaw where I come from.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At young age inspired by more experienced travellers. Always had great experience even though have not used this platform as much as I wish.
The times I did made the precioust memories of travelling.
I find it a great tool beneficiary to both parties of hosting and hosted. Making travelling also affordable to more people. I think there are better (going further) ways to contribute to local economies rather than paying for accommodation.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy and love to exolore the music.
Music from different sides of spectrum. I listen to independent, experimental, indie folk, rock, dream pop,..not even being great at classification. Some of artists I like are Sufjan Stevens, Phoebe Bridgers, Beirut, in the past a fun of The Beatles. Also, - reggea, salsa, soul, various Latinoamerican kinds of music. Manu Chao, Calle 13, Baiana System, Damian Marley, can't help but adore Shakira...

Books:
I enjoy fiction literature, but most of the time you'll see me with non-fiction books. One kind I enjoy a lot are ethnographies.

Movies:
"Persona" Ingmar Bergman
"Fresa y chocolate"
"Abrazo del Serpiente" Ciro Guerra

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One achievement, happened during the "Freshers' week" (the week before starting the first year of studying when you are supposed to organise your new life and do fun things). I took part and won an eating competition, beating four male rivals, having lunch of the year and winning a voucher to restaurant.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share stories, points of view, knowledge and experienced I gained during 22 years (yeah).
I'll probably try to get hoummus wherever I am so I can share some.

I can teach you Spanish or English as long as mine are better than yours.
Also Polish:) Nie ma za co.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A company to some activities like e.g. running, cycling or sightseeing.

Good stories and poor jokes.
