About Me

I want to travel around the world again and visit Pacific Region :-) Nauru, Vanuatu, Tuamotu or Kiribati was always the words which gave me goose bumps! Since I was little I loved all the stories of great sailors, explorers, travelers... I hope to make this big wish to come true someday.

I love traveling. World is too small to stay in one place! And too beautiful to admire only piece of it.
Usually I'm travelling with my boyfriend, so I need space for 2 people.

PHILOSOPHY

SMILE, WE'RE ALL THE SAME UNDER THE SAME SUN!
Be you, be true, love what you do.
Carpe diem, duc in altum.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was hosting mostly in Poland, surfing in Poland, Indonesia and Australia.

I have a good couchsurfing memories. Couchsurfing proofs that people are generally good :) I think that it's amazing way to meet others and share not even a couch but knowledge and experiences, passion and inspiration. That's really really cool. Even when you're home, not able to travel, fresh inspiration and new passion comes into your house beacause you announced that you're sharing your couch! :D

Interests

generally travel, photography and interior design. and maybe a bit of history and politics.

I'm in love with Latin culture, Cuba, Indonesia, Oceania and discovering local places not mentioned in guide books. This is what traveling is about for me. To feel other culture, dive into daily life of local people on the other side of the globe, understand, smile, laugh, feel same things. I'm an observer, who never judges but always wants to understand other's point of view.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I attended balinese cremation ceremony... unforgettable experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to share my experiences!
I was living in Bali for 6 moths, so I can share my expreriences and explain how life looks there :)

I also have a friend Julio, who lives in Havana, in beautiful colonial apartament on the main street of old city - Paseo del Prado. Amazing place, Julio is having casa particular there and I had this opportunity and was this lucky to live there while visiting Havana. As you know, cuban government lets only registered cubans who pay special high tax to host foreigners in their home - casa particular. As Julio is my good friend I would like to reccomend here his place. It's not for free, like CS, because it's illegal in Cuba, but in my opinion it's the best way to feel cuban spirit :-) and hear revolutionary beat of the Havana's heart!
I'm sharing his email adress: juliogomez@infomed.sld.cu - feel free to ask about accomodation!
Adress of his place: Prado No. 254 2Piso, e/Animas y Trocadero, Habana Vieja, Cuba.

In my cs pics you'll find some from Julio's beautiful apartament.
