My name is Helena, I come from Wroclaw (Poland). I'm passionate about travelling, music from 70's and science in general (geology, zoology, botanics, astronomy...).

This September I am going to be an Au Pair in London and travel during the weekends :) I am looking for a nice people who could host me.

I am vegetarian and I will be very happy to cook something for you :) I can help you with some house chores, I can walk you dog, cat, guinea pig or whatever you want :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My dream is to travel around the world and meet new places, people, culture.

Unfortunatelly I cannot host you now in my home. Maybe in the future, when I will have my own house in the countryside :)

Interests

As I I'm interested in biology, zoology, ornitology, ecology, etology, phillosophy and psychology, art works.
I cannot live without music. I'm listening mostly to the music from 60's, 70's and 80's.
I'm learning to play guitar, ukulele and harmonica, I used to play piano.
