About Me

I write a lot, photograph a lot, watch a lot, swear a lot, laugh a lot and think a lot.
I also want a lot. From people, from life, from myself.
In winter I enjoy skiing and a hot cup of cocoa (or proper hot chocolate), in other seasons I enjoy hiking, bike riding and ice creams! :)

In English I write here: http://dreamyana.wordpress.com/
In Polish I write here: http://dreamyana.blogspot.com/
And my photos can be found here: http://dreamyana.deviantart.com/

Oh, and you can follow me on https://twitter.com/pi_ana and https://www.instagram.com/anapi91/ if you like :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Not much experience with CS, but so far only positive - met a few great people thanks to it :)

In 2016 I (finally) graduated from University and after a year of working in the party hostel in the heart of Krak City, meeting travellers from all over the world (absolutely loved it), I decided to get out there myself and explore a little. Since UK was always my big dream, my first choice was London (for three months), second Edinburgh (for eight months - I fell madly in love with this city). Then I've spent four months back at home and now I'm back in Edinburgh for a longer while - maybe forever, who knows, I absolutely love it here!

Ever since I moved away, I realised I'm more sociable than originally believed. I do enjoy company of people, especially when I can learn something new from them and couch surfing so far proved to be the best platform for meeting people :D

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: first and foremost MUSE (proper Muser alert here). Then Biffy Clyro and Placebo. And then all the rest such as Paramore, Dry the River, Imagine Dragons, Franz Ferdinand, Frightened Rabbit, The Naked and Famous, Everything Everything, Nothing but Thieves, Ed Sheeran, Milky Chance, Chet Faker, Grimes - I'm trying to be open here, so I'll gladly take some new recommendations ;)

MOVIES: everything goes, apart from horror; though I'm especially fond of drama. Among my (many!) favourites is 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind'.
I like TV series, mostly of British origin. Whovian alert!

I love reading, but unfortunately don't do that frequently enough. If someone asked me about my fav authors I would probably go with Orwell and Ishiguro. I wish I could write just like they do.

Also, I was brought up on original Star Wars trilogy (big fan!) and was (still am a bit) obsessed with Potter series, both books and films (Potter head and proud Revenclaw!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

depends how you look at it: I may have done plenty, or that's yet to come ;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I could try to help with Polish if anyone needs it :D
I can also assist with English, though rather writing than speaking.
I'd be also more than happy to share my amateur-photographer experience :)
And writing (both fiction and non-fiction) - I used to be a part of Creative Writing Section at my Uni, I do write a lot and I'd love to share some experience and opinions, both about my pieces, as literature and art of writing in general.
I'm open to join any kind of creative or artistic project :)
