About Me

ABOUT ME

I guess I'm an easygoing and relaxed person, who loves good food, good companion and good vine. I'm passionate about women's rights, feminism, migration and ... well... food ... ;) I'm rather outspoken and direct, but that's just how Polish people are in general, so don't take it personally:)
I see travelling as one of the greatest pleasures of life. I hate guided tours, I prefer to go sightseeing on my own or in companion of the locals. And wherever I go I always have the impression that my suitcase is far too small :)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that each smile comes back to you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
