Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To explore places in Europe which I haven't been to, next destination - Paris! Also to show Europe to my American boyfriend :)
ABOUT ME
I'm open - minded optimist, who really likes meeting new people, visiting new places and look at things from different perspectives!
PHILOSOPHY
"As long as you fight, you're a winner"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
In the commercial world we live in it is hard to have an authentic experience in places we travel to. Most developed capitals in Europe, or remote places in Asia, you cannot be sure if that's real local expereince what do they offer you - often jsut made for tourist. That's what I like about CS most. First thing I did in Vienna was swimming in the see, in Helsinki -canoeing in the river, Vietnam - making rice-paper. I love to expereince simple, "normal" life, and feel like home wherever I am.
Interests
I'm really keen on psychology, after finishing my masters I don't work specifically in the field, still I am interested and happy to share some insights if you want! That's what I also look for in my travels - to explore cultures, how people live, behave, and hoe does the "bigger picture" of their customs look like. I also like photography, especially street photography or whatever you call it - to capture reality, especially people's behaviour.
I'm also a big fan of board games, logical puzzles, cards... Anything wichi brings people together, common goal and a bit of competition is also a nice thing from time to time ;)
I really like volleyball, also beach version so if anyone want to suggest me to play a match I will be more than happy to do it :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most beautifull viev which I have seen is Budapest at night watched from the hill. There I felt that time stoped. It was first and only place so far where I felt something like that.
The other thing was living for 6 months in India and teaching psychology at university! That was incredible experience incomparable to anything else...
Teach, Learn, Share
I can tell you something more about psychology, e.g. how we behave and why we behave like that. I could tell you that I can read your minds but it's not true - I'm not the fairy ;)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Some stories and spending time together can be great! I can prepare typical polish food for you.
