About Me

I wanna be a kid forever, I try to enjoy everything that happens to me and I do it.
I have quite low self-evaluation and I think that's why I'm shy when I meet someone for the first time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I didn't know couchsurfing until begging of 2013 then my friend told me how great it was. In January 2014 I surfed for the first time and now I know she was totally right! That's why I wanna host some people now.
I was a little bit afraid when I surfed for the first time, but with every new trip I know there's nothing to be afraid of! It's amazing how good it is! Meeting strangers who want to share their live with you, spend time and help you in everything is just incredible.

Interests

Actually I am crazy about Russia. I would love to travel there, go by Trans-Siberian Railway from Moscow to Vladivostok, meet there other travelers, talk with them, exchange experience. I wanna learn the language perfectly to read 'Master and Margarita' in Russian. I wanna go to deep Siberia and experience very low temperature, spend some time there and see how people live in condition that are unimaginable for me.
Another thing I am crazy, not so much, but still, is Latin America. I think that's because I met amazing people from some countries and they inspired me to learn more about their navive lands.
And like many people I love traveling and meeting new cultures. I enjoy speaking different languages then Polish. It's not i don't like my own country, but hanging out with foreigners is much more interesting for me. I feel like I can learn something from then and never be bored.
I love big cities. I can go to one, be on my own and spend few days sightseeing and just walking around. When I go somewhere I wanna feel the spirit of a place and see how people from there live. Where they go, what they eat or even how public transport works.
But also I love spending time in nature. I like walking , riding a bike. And swimming, I really love it. When I travel and there's a sea I automatically jump in.

Music, Movies, and Books

When I was younger I was a huge fan of Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Arctic Monkeys, The Beatles, Blur, and Gorrilaz. I loved John Frusciante, I still cannot find words to describe his music. Now I'm not into music so much, of course I enjoy listening. I can say I like every kind of music except hip-hop and jazz .
Movies. I don't watch them so often. But I love Star Wars and enjoy action movies. I am a girl, Leonardo DiCaprio is mu crush so I can watch something just to stare at his face. But seriously, he plays in really good movies.
And books are what I really love! Everything started when my grandma bough me the first part of Harry Potter. I still love it, I have read it more then 10 times, not only in Polish, but also in English and Spanish.
Now I study russian filology, we read russsian classics and I like it a lot. But the most I enjoy reportages and guide books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not something what I've done, it was a kind of a process which influented me a lot. On 2013/2014 I was on Erasmus in Madrid and it totally changed me. I realised I didn't have to start studying and then after 5 years have my master. When on december 2014 I broke my leg I decided to quit university and travel a bit. I was visiting some friends around Europe and I went to Moscow for 6 weeks which was for me like another small exchange. If I didn't go to Spain I would do everything not to stop studying.
I am really glad for these years, I don't care that I started my university again after three years, because I used my opportunity to have an awesome youth. Actually this can be the amazing thing, enjoing my live as much it was possible, when I was still carefree and before I started taking my life seriosuly.
