O mnie

CURRENT MISSION

Learn Swahili :)

ABOUT ME

PLEASE FILL OUT YOUR PROFILE BEFORE SENDING ME A REQUEST TO SURF MY COUCH. PLEASE SHOW ME THAT YOU ACTUALLY READ MY PROFILE. ;)
Me briefly:
-vegan( was vegetarian for a bit before),
-was a cheerleader for 9 years(it has nothing to do with pompoms, it`s actually very athletic and demanding ),
-VERY talkative,
-love performing on stage or in competition
-used to study classical singing(opera and classical lieder)and I love singing
-I smile a lot
-used to be very into punk and skacore growing up and I can definitely rip it up in a mosh pit( I don`t do it anymore because I feel too old for it now)
-book worm
-love going out every once in a while and can be quite entertaining when I have had a couple of beers
-love big cities (but I come from the suburbs)
-have been a little obsessed with anything Africa-related since living in Tanzania in 2013
If you have a question, feel free to ask, but remember that I talk a lot! hahaha

PHILOSOPHY

I don't believe in waiting for things to happen in my life. I believe in finding ways to make those things happen. I do not want to wake up at 50 and think "Ishould have...".

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to show people around in Montreal as often as I can. I used to host in my old apartment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Germany(Munich,Stuttgart,Dresden, Freiburg, Heidelberg, Hamburg...), Danemark(Copenhagen, Aarhus), Poland(Krakow), Estonia (Tallinn), Holland(Amsterdam), Lithuania(Vilnius), Latvia(Riga), Austria(Vienna), Belgium (Brussels), New Zealand (Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin), Tanzania (Dar Es Salaam, Zanzibar), Costa rica (San Isidoro, Cartago), Uganda (Entebbe)

I hosted in Germany (Hamburg and Stuttgart), in Tanzania and in Montreal and I show CSers around Montreal from time to time.

Zainteresowania

Music(classical, opera, psychobilly, punk,skacore, indie, reggae,anything with accordeon, some electronic stuff, Tanzanian hip hop...)
Cheerleading(it is a competitive sport, it has nothing to do with cheering for a football game, in fact I have never cheered for a game in my life)
Alpine skiing
Ballet(watching it)
Literature(I enjoy reading a lot and I used to work in a book store and a library, so temptation was always there)
Photography(going to exhibitions, I am not so good myself)
Travelling(quite shocking isn`t it?)
Arts in general, especially contemporary art
Learning different languages, I want to learn more Swahili
Drag queens(we have some great ones in Montreal)
Dancing stupidly when I go out with my friends
Cooking vegan food

Muzyka, filmy i książki

I listen to a lot of stuff. My favorite opera singers are: Barbara Bonney, Lucia Popp,Joan Sutherland, Kathleen Battle,Nathalie Dessay, Magdalena Kozena and Pavel Lisityan...My favorite operas are Manon by Jules Massenet and Pique Dame by Tchaikovsky.

I also enjoy cheesy romantic comedies every once in a while to cheer me up... Cheap horror movies àla Ed Wood that make you laugh instead of afraid like Cabin by the lake.

I read a lot, it is hard to sum up, but a Diet for a New America is a must if you want to begin to understand why people go vegan ...

Living in Hamburg for 8 months.How I miss my Hamburger Berg and all those crazy evenings on the Kiez...
Living in Tanzania and making friends in the hip hop community in Arusha.
Climbing Kilimandjaro

One stupid thing I did? Getting locked in a church in Poland... hahaha

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

I can teach French,basic German, cheerleading techniques, basic singing techniques, veggie-friendly cooking and probably more. I can also teach you (or at least try)how to love opera and to understand it. I talk a lot so I share a lot of my stories with people I meet. I would love to learn as many languages as possible and about all cultures.
