I study in Hannover, Germany (English and German for secondary school teaching), but I've also done two semesters at the Glasgow University couple of years ago. Besides my studies I work as a language assistant at my uni where I teach international students German, and I also give tuition classes at a secondary school.

As my studies suggest, I love languages and cultures and I travel as often as I can. I've lived in the UK twice (once as an au pair, once as a student) and I love the people an mentality there! However, I'm also very intrigued in other countries and cultures (currently learning Spanish and also preparing for my journey to Indonesia). I love swimming, jogging and cycling, hanging or going out with friends, discovering new music, reading (mainly crime novels) and, of course, traveling! Since I love walking around and discovering places on my own I'm easy maintenance, but I'm also sociable and always up for a chat and a drink or a night out.

Although I'm a student, I've lived on my own long enough to know what personal space and a tidy home mean and so I'm happy to keep my host's flat clean and as uninvaded as possible ;)

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

Having studied abroad and working with people from all over the world has shown me how valuable it is to meet people/locals wherever you are and learn about their lifes, thoughts or culture. It's something that adds up to the experience and which you can't get in a hotel!

Muzyka, filmy i książki

Music: I like pretty much everything, but I prefer alternative/rock and I also like pop/90s & charts (not just cause I can sing along to them) :D

Books: I mainly read trivial things like crime novels in my free time cause I have to read so many challenging works for my studies. I also like philosophical books though.

Movies: Mostly comedies, but not too fussed about the genre, really.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Great experiences definitely include my au pair year, my Erasmus year, my student exchange to the US and many smaller trips I've had throughout Europe.

I especially enjoyed traveling through the UK on my own just after school cause it showed me that I can tackle challenges on my own or with the help of strangers wherever I am. I got myself into stupid situations more than once (everyone who's traveled knows so many things can come up when you don't know a country/language etc.) and there's always been a way out somehow. I think those are the most valuable experiences I could make: Being independent on the one hand, but also knowing that there are so many lovely and generous people out there!
