ABOUT ME

I'm an open-minded person, looking rather at the bright side of life. I'm full of energy and I try to do many things at the same time- sometimes day is too short for me. I have many passions and I do my best so as not to be labelled as a boring law student ;)

PHILOSOPHY

If you want sth, go and get it! Realising your dreams and goals is one of the most essentials things for me, only the word is the limit!:) yolo!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy CS meetings. I surfed several times and I really liked meeting locals without whom my trips wouldn't have been the same!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
At first I went to Paris and was a guest of a great host-this experience encouraged me to travel more, discover new places and... meet new people.

Last year I did my erasmus in France, which was a great experience. I spent autumn in the south of France, then I moved to Bordeaux. Thanks to CS, I visited Nimes, Arles, Avignon, Montpellier, Nice, Lyon, Toulouse and Bayonne and I dare say that it was a great time. After finishing my studies I went to the Pyrenees and then headed towards the Basque Country which I really liked. In june I hitchhiked to Madrid and Lisbon, where I had a chance to participate in Santos Populares.

Next goal: South America!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: jazz, rock, alternative, chanson française, music du monde...
Books: It's a complicated question. I really like non-fiction writing (reportage) and I can recommend you some great Polish writers. I am keen on classics (mostly XIX), currently falling in love with Steinbeck ( 'Grapes of wreath'), in the past I read a llt of French literature. I like also female voices such as M. Attwoos, D.Lessing,etc.
Movies: I like rather alternative movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I still think that the best moments are about to come.
Anyway, the best moments are always related to hiking (you can ask me about the crazy trip in the Pyrenees... ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a lot about slavic mentality which isn't as negative as it may appear.
I love sharing experiences from hiking and travelling as well as little curiosities about various languages. Feel free to ask!
I really like cooking together.
Thanks to my sense of direction, I am quite a good guide and I really enjoy showing my city to other CS.
