Overview
About Me
Hey there, fellow travelers! I'm Aniela, a 30-year-old culture and media management grad turned data analyst living in the vibrant city of Berlin. My heart beats for travel, not just any travel, but the kind that lets me dive deep into the local culture and sociology of the places I visit. I have a profound love for good books and movies, which are my travel companions on every journey. And, oh, I absolutely adore cats! They're the purrfect friends. If you're looking for someone who's passionate about exploring the depths of culture, enjoys a good story, and would love to share in the joy of furry feline friends, I'd be thrilled to connect and perhaps share some adventures together!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because the conventional tourist path and tourist-targeted restaurants—just isn't for me. I crave the authenticity of experiencing a city through the eyes of its residents, diving deep into the local way of life, culture, politics, and economic backdrop. Organized tours, with their prepackaged narratives, don't appeal to me. I'm all about discovering the real story on my own.
Interests
I enjoy traveling because it allows me to experience the diversity of the world firsthand. My interests also include staying informed about current political and economic trends, as well as understanding the rapid developments in digital technologies. Alongside these intellectual pursuits, I value learning new languages and skills, which enrich my travels and broaden my perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm an avid reader with a keen interest in reportage and non-fiction literature, aiming to read at least one book a week.
As for films, I have a deep passion for artistic cinema that delves into the nuances of human life, steering clear of mainstream offerings. This year favourites: Perfect days.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One amazing thing I've done was a solo trip through Uzbekistan last year. This experience that allowed me to explore the breathtaking beauty of Registan in Samarkand and fall in love with the charming city of Bukhara. This journey wasn't just a travel adventure; it was a deep dive into the heart of Central Asia's rich history, culture, and architecture. The warmth of the people, the stunning Islamic architecture, and the intricate patterns adorning ancient cities were absolutely captivating.
