Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
What I value most in life is loyalty, companionship and broad horizons. An irreverent sense of humour is a must. I have a degree in architecture and English translations, and I work as a simultaneous interpreter and a tour guide in Gdansk. I'm a freelancer so I can strike the right balance between the work/leisure time and I love travelling - my favourite locations being Caribs and the bahamas, Egypt (Sharm el Sheik), Greece (Myconos, Crete, Santoritni), Italy (Sardenia), US (New York and Boston) and Austria for skiing and mountain hiking.
Although I've lived on the beach all my life - I'm a mountaineer at heart - I just love the mountains !
I enjoy stimulating discussions ranging from art and architecture to international affairs. I love sports: tennis, cycling, swimming, skiing, windsurfing and mountain hiking and snorkeling.
Looking to meet interesting people to share a fascinating life in its rich variety of aspects.
