Hello fellow Couchsurfers!
My name is Izabela (Iza for short). I live and work in Kraków, Poland. I love cooking and eating, reading and I watch more TV series than I would like to admit (but only the good ones!). I value people a lot and love spending time with my family and friends but I most definitely like traveling on my own. I love outdoor activities, especially climbing, hiking and cycling but I cannot ski (really want to learn though).
During weekends if only I have time I would be happy to show you Kraków, or meet up for a beer and chat. Don't hesitate to contact me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to meet people who have similar interests as me. I love discussing travels, interesting places to visit and I cannot wait to hear all crazy stories about what happened during your trips. When I was younger I used to hitchhike and CS was a great way to find hosts and travel companions. These days I mostly use CS to meet up with other couchsurfers as I find it refreshing and super funny.
I like traveling on my own, visit places and try the best regional food and drinks not mentioned in the guidebooks so meeting locals make my trips more fun and valuable. I also like sharing my favorite places in Kraków with visitors as I feel that the city has much more to offer than most people think.
I hope that our paths will cross eventualy. See you somewhere!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like electronic music, chillout but also rock and pop classics from 70's 80's and 90's.
I watch a lot of movies but sometimes I feel that I spend more time on searching for a good ones than actually watching them.

I'm kind of a bookworm. I usually read crime stories during winter and novels in summer but also love reading books about places I'm going to visit soon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a good listener and I'm really enthusiastic about places I visit. I can make you a cake or traditional Polish meal even if I only have local ingredients (I'm good at improvising in kitchen:)) I like to believe that I also have some interesting stories to tell and we can spend nice time talking and exchanging opinions. Hope to be your guest some day!
