About Me

Currently in two months lasting South Asia trip!
I'll be traveling 13.10-13.12 through Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam :)

I'm new citizen of Wrocław! Before, I've lived 8 years in Warsaw.

I love singing, good food, wine, sailing, snow and ofc travels. Lets meet and do something crazy!:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The idea of CS seems amazing - meeting local people and exploring a city with their guidelines.

I met wonderfull people thanks to CS, when I was a guest.

Interests

Books, movies, foreign languages and different cultures. I try to combine all of them.

I like hitch hiking, and travelling without a strict plan. However, I don't like to feel unprepared, so I always do a lot of lists and planning just in case, but I easily forget about them and take a spontaneous adventure:) I enjoy the road. Sometimes, it excites me even more then the destination.

I prefer nature - mountains, swimming and sailing, long walks. But with adrenaline;) Difficult routes in the mountains with elements of climbing , moody Baltic sea, 20 km walks in the city.

I love singing and I do it quite often, my old flatmates used to joke that we should offer our guests some earplugs before letting them to come in. I was born in musician family, so I know basics of guitar and piano. This year I also bought ukulele! Here in Wrocław we have 3 times more instruments than people: piano, 2 guitars, ukukele, violin and flute :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a little bit a geek girl when it comes to books and movies that I find very interesting. I love long discussions about a story, heros, actors, directors, what could happen next, film festivals, etc, etc.
I've learnt how to read on Harry Potter books (and I still do it, but now in foreign languages, currently in French). I'm also a big fan of Lord of the Rings, espacially the movies. In the cinema, I will always see a new Tarantino movie and Disney or Pixar animation. I don't really like musicals as a whole movie, but I get crazy about single songs and listen to them (and sing of course) over and over again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've spontaneously decided to go on a week boattrip to Mazury with a guy I've met (but not in person) on CS. It was my first experience on couchsurfing and turned out to be a 'butterfly efect" - many more trips together, I met a lot of new friends from Poland and from abroad and later my boyfriend.
