About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Maybe I can't change the world for everyone but I can make world better for somebody..

ABOUT ME

First of all I don't respect people who judge you because of the place you live, or because of your skin color or religion! Everybody is different... That's why CS is- to ensure you that we can change STEREOTYPES!

I study Law at the University but love Art, Music, Culture and.. Travelling..
In my free time I teach children English because I have studied in the USA for few months.
I also work as a volunteer in Homeless Animal Shelter.

I'm vege :) But I do not impose my lifestyle/believings.

Meeting interesting people, learning from them.

My mother's art: http://barbara-jagla.prv.pl/pl/002/ thanks for her, I enjoy visiting museums so much :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Do not ask what world can do for you, ask what you can do for the world"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I know that I live in not such interesting place like most of you, but if you would like to see Cracow or salt mines/ coal mines I could show you as much as I can. I also plan to move to London so, then I can could couch you with pleasure.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new here but I hope I will have it by hosting people and being hosted.

Interests

I love art especially Rembrandt, Gaugain, Renoir, Pissarro and the others.
I enjoy travelling, meeting new people, going forward- not backward..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First an at the same time last when I saw New York, in 1999.
When I dive for the first time in Dominicana Republic.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Would you go with me for a walk in Paris? About midnight? To the cemetery? At night on 1st November cemeteries do not make you feel scared. If you were on the cemetery in such night, you know that that it is almost mistical experience. Sometimes I think that what Eve is for the living, Holy Day is for the dead. We would go to the special cemetery. It's located almost in the centre of Paris, it is spread on over 43 hectares, closed behind over three meters wall. Cemetery Le Pere Lachaise. For some people Pere Lachaise is the only reason it is worth arriving to Paris. Some have arrived here only, in order to die and be buried on Pere Lachaise. Some have lived in such a way to deserve for their own tomb on Pere Lachaise. Because this devided on sectors cemetery is like a pantheon of souls. The tomb here is like an entry to the encyclopedia. I used to reflect on what could be happening behind these walls if some spiritual poet under the influence of ethanol or some other stronger psychedelic chemistry revive this place for few hours. May then Jim Morrison from sector N9 would sing with Edith Piaf from sector N5? Chopin from sector M9 would encourage Sarah Bernhardt from sector L7 for a common performance? Homosexual Oscar Wilde from sector K5 would seducing heterosexaul Appolinaire from sector J8? Or Proust from sector J8 and Balzac from sector J9 would arrage to write a common novel? Or maybe Delacroix from sector J9 would complain to Modigiani from sector M5, that he had lived too early to become an ipressionist? We would go to this cemetery to become convinced that we are not allowed to go there. Cemeteries in Paris are being closed before the banks. You would be disappointed, wouldn't you? And I would be embarrassed that I didn't check it. The Man should take the woman to the places he has promised her. Especially to those to which they were to reach at night."

It's hard to translate, so maybe I've lost the point of it...
