About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Dublin baby!

ABOUT ME

Kasia, 28, Polish currently living in lovely Leeuwarden, The Netherlands. I'm friendly, kind and open-minded person. I've studied Middle Eastern culture and my mission now is to explore Dutchies. I love to meet new people and talk about culture, languages, movies, food and beautiful places!

PHILOSOPHY

Impossible is nothing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't treat CS as a free accomodation. If I host people I try to show my city as good as I can, make a nice diner and spend quality time. If I surf, I would like to have good time with my host, help with making food and have nice chats. If you want to stay with us (I'm living with my boyfriend) write me at least 3-4 weeks before your arrival. We are both working and having different activities so sometimes we are fully booked. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still fresh here but I like it so much. I hosted many friends during my stays in Cracow, Istanbul and Leeuwarden. My first couchsurfers came from Taiwan! We also hosted people from Hungary and Germany. Our couchsurfing experience as surfers remainds me beautiful Sarajevo. Feel free to poke me. Looking forward to meet you guys!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling with my 60 years old dad through Iran.

Visiting Damascus twice in 2007 and 2010. If one day I'll take a chance to return it wouldn't be the same.

Visiting Beirut during Hezbollah occupation. the question is was it amazing? ;D

Teach, Learn, Share

One of my hobby is teaching languages. Right now I've couple of people who studies Dutch by me and a Frisian couple who explores Polish!!! It's the biggest challenge ever to teach your own language. I love it. If you up to we can practice some Dutch and Polish.

I'm a coordinator in a project Humaa(N)tjes which helps lonely people or people with light disorders to find a mate to share hobbies, activities and spend free time together. In this job I'm learning a lot about people, different characters and different ways of life. Even when you think we're so different we still can find a way to understand and accept each other. I'm glad that my job brings nice results and, especially, that I'm making people happy.
