About Me

CURRENT MISSION

sky is the limit

ABOUT ME

I am only passionately curious.

PHILOSOPHY

World is good, just smile to it and it will smile back!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Everything started in Romania. I hosted my friend from Uni in Bucuresti, where she told my that I was her only not-couchsurfing host on here Poland-Sisilly hich-hiking trip. She explained me what the couch surfing is so I joined and all her hosts turned out to be implicated in CS :).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was surfing couches in Spain, Bulgaria, Turkey, Romania and China
I was 'coffee or a drink host' in Strasbourg and Warsaw.

Interests

meeting new people, architecture - how it reflects different cultures and how architecture influence people, making whatever from whatever is still left, arts, city scape, travelling, cuisine, sailing, hitch-hiking, drinking beer, talking, sharing fascinations, foreign languages and cultures...
I love watching talks on TED - they always make me inspired
