I grew up and spent most of my life in Poland (in a beautiful small town of Kórnik), did my PhD in molecular biology in Copenhagen and keep working at the University of Copenhagen. I am curious about the world (that's why I chose science!) and whenever possible I am traveling - discovering that the world is even weirder than expected :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling is not only about rocks, buildings or nature, it is primarly about people. Couchsurfing is a way of experiencing the destination to its fullest.
