Overview
About Me
Cześć!
Current BSc Hons Psychology and Cognitive Science student & junior researcher at the University of Sussex, UK.
I'm working in Attention Lab in the School of Psychology, University of Sussex and I'm researching mind-wandering.
I used to be a ballet dancer for 12 years, I know the ins and outs of working in a theatre. Now I'm learning Cuban Salsa and it's so much fun! One of the best ways to meet people.
🌱 I'm a vegetarian since 2010. I really appreciate it when hosts offer to cook something, however, when it contains meat/fish/seafood I cannot try it. 🌱
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe travelling is not only about seeing places but also experiencing the culture, meeting new people, trying local food.
