About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Integrity

ABOUT ME

Married. Two children. I am a conference interpreter. Speak four languages: English, Polish, Russian and Ukrainian. Travel a lot due to business assignments and just for the sheer fun of meeting people and places.

PHILOSOPHY

So many people have helped me so many times. Why don't I do the same to others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have hosted a couple of times. Would like to host more. And to be hosted as well :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted twice in Munich and Brussels and that was fantastic. Then I hosted a couple of times in Warsaw and have more guests coming :)

Interests

History is my favourite subject and I always try to find out something interesting about the history of a place I am visiting.
I also like diving and train kick-boxing.
But most of all - I love travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

History books. I like film, vocal and classical music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Professionaly-wise I meet amazing people and witness historic events.
Hobby-wise: I have travelled round the world, swam in the Angara river (near Baikal) at midnight. I have done some under-ice and wreck diving. I have seen the Nothern Lights!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more of a learner, not as much a teacher. Although I do enjoy sharing some knowledge of the world I have.
My children learn a lot as they travel with us and I find it most gratifying to see them grow with better and more direct knowledge of the countries, places and people they have encountered.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food for thought and the joy of exploring places and meeting people.
