We are Emilia and Jacek, and we’ve been a couple for 10 years. I am a Swedish language teacher and Jacek is a public relations professional. Our home is Cracow, Poland where we have our own apartment. We’re both fluent in English.

We have recently made our dream come true by having a trip around the world. You can check out our recent updates and stories from our past journeys at fb.com/globfoterka.

We are passionate of exploring new places and meeting interesting people. We love animals and we have experience as petsitters and housesitters. You can loose yourself with us in hours of conversation about variety of topics, in joyful party or in listening calm and relaxing music I love. Rest assured that we won't leave you in a need.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because we think that it's a great idea and opportunity to meet people from the whole world. It's not about free accommodation but more about sharing experiences with people from different cultures.
