Polish girl, that left her heart in Portugal, where I lived for the last 4 years. I was backpacking and hitchhiking in Europe this year and now I am doing a one year program in NGO in Brussels.

Experience is the most important in life, also - "feel the fear and do it anyway" is my motto.

I am here because I want to make intentional friends and I love intercultural exchanges and interesting discussions about cultures, I want to give back to this world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm starting really slowly, already I was a guest in Beauvais and Tirana, before I was hosting many times in my place people in Kraków and Coimbra and Lisbon, not via Couchsurfing but common friends :)

I don’t have any references, bc I never have time to ask my friends to do it, so I can be more trustworthy in CS :( i forgot to give my last host reference also and i still need to do it! I hope it doesn’t matter for you, if I send a request!

Movies: comedies, about weddings, also dysthopy, good historical ones, with good plot - Also Harry Potter, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, How to Train Your Dragon, Divirgent, Hunger Games,, My big fat greek wedding. I know, kind of romantic and child-nerd.

TV Series: How I met your mother, Friends, Modern Family, Orange is the New Black, Shameless, Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I became AFSer (AFS volunteer). It changed me and opened to the world more than I had been before.

AFS Intercultural Programs is an international youth exchange organization. AFS is an international, voluntary, non-governmental, non-profit organization that provides intercultural learning opportunities to help people develop the knowledge, skills and understanding needed to create a more just and peaceful world.

Teach, Learn, Share

Fun, a lot of conversations about everything (especially I like to ask about cultural differences, stereotypes, culture of our countries and more), sightseeing (I'm good guide!).

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge about Poland, especially Kraków (I was working 6 months in tourist information point and now in incoming tourism's office) and Portugal (I was guide there for 2 years) so feel free to write to me about it, even I can't host you :)

Good vibe, stories, random One Piece facts, positive atmosphere!
