About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn something new everyday

ABOUT ME

I like to think I´m free, freedom is the road I follow. I'm now very close of becoming the person I desire to become and I'm thankful.
Dancing, painting, swimming, reading, loving and travelling make me feel alive. I´m one of the most positive person I know, I avoid troubles and suffering, life is hard enough, but so fucking enjoyable as well.
I smile all the time but I also cry very easily, remembering a scene of Angelopouloses movie but still laugh every day.
I'm half french and polish, always being devided between two cultures and countries, now I feel mostly european and have the feeling I can live and adapt myself everywhere.

I don't like money (I don't have) and hate cowardness. I love being and feeling alive!

PHILOSOPHY

Fuck yeah!!! Let's do it!

I could die tomorrow.

If you're scared of something, it means you should do it.

"I don't know the future but I know it has good plans for me"

"There's no randomness, only rendez-vous" Paul Eluard.

my theory is that life should be free (it should be!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've stopped accepting everyone 'definetely' when I realized the true sense of CS is to get to know people you could really get along with. (which means that
I read profiles very carefully before sending a request or positively answered back. That way, there's more chance for both side to have real good experiences and as I hope, share and create a real friendship.
I have guides and extra maps for my guest, I always cook something and welcome people in a clean place, and try to show the city around when I have time, but always be happy to recommend you a place to visit if I can't.
I talk about CS all the time and try to spread the concept whenever I can, because it's truely an amazing thing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Being hosted in Poland, in France, in Thailand, had hundreds and dozen of guests in Warsaw (sometimes at the same time ) it was awesome. Now I have friends all over the world. Our generation is really open-minded, peaceful, pacific : open to cultures, people and languages. I like to think we can change the world, or definitely choose the one we want to live in. I m an idealist, sure, but my CS experiences reinforce that feeling.

Interests

Art, love, life, nature, food, dreams, people, cinema, literature, painting and reading, music, dancing, walking, sun and sea, swimming, the ocean, looking at the stars and the moon, your eyes that never lies, listening, silence, sleeping.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing seen I´ve seen: the full moon rising in the "Vallee de la Luna" en San Pedro de Atacama and the sun rise in the Uyuni Salar.

The most amazing seen I ve done: saved someone s life.

The most romantic thing I´ve done: I went all the way to Vietnam to meet with a guy I was deeply in love with. Too bad he never showed up. :D
I had the best time of my life though. Suffering is not for me.

Lately I perverted a monk, (and i´m really proud of it :) in a place where they preach love but forbid physical love, doing it was the best thing to do.
