About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Gather money to travel around Asia for 3 months by the end of 2017.

ABOUT ME

I'm 28 years old (having a little bit of age crisis). I like different cultures, love Harry Potter. Netflix consumes a little bit too much of my free-time. I'm currently working in a BSC in Prague. Been living here for about 2 years.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to be happy. To be able to be happy, I do things I enjoy. This is more or less the philosophy I try to live by, since one of my biggest fears(besides being a crazy catlady) is to become a bitter old person. Doing my best to avoid this by living life as I want it to be lived.
When it comes to people, I try my best to see them as individuals, and not as static parts of their cultures. This has been important to me ever since I was a child (couldn't articulate it back then, but that's a minor thing:P).

Music, Movies, and Books

I absolutely love Harry Potter. Or, Harry is too obnoxious, but Ron is amazing. Otherwise, I read a lot of non-fiction, mainly about history (20th cen/Poland) and different religions (Islam). My bookshelf is in a chronological order. It's the grandest thing I own.
I like non-Hollywood films. This being said, I'm not that into films, but they are fun to watch. Books are way too important.
Oh, and I'm currently obsessed with this amazing Polish tv-series called Czas Honoru. Bronek is great.
I don't listen to that much music anymore, but I like to sing along to pop and rock. And jump alot at the same time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Deciding to go on Erasmus. Could unfortunately only do it for 5 months, but it was the greatest 5 months. Staying in a rundown dormitory at Pragues periphery was amazing! Also managed to cross off an important thing from my bucketlist; went Interrailing in 2013, to Italy and the Balkans, was so great.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know about stuff about Islam and various different cultures. Also have some knowledge about Polish history. I like trivia information.
I can also make good meatballs and cheesecake.
