ABOUT ME

- Sir, where is going this train?
- Nowhere.
- That's good, i'm just going there...
______

I was born under a bad sign and i still love to make my life difficult.
______

i ended my sociology studies in Lublin and now i'm still looking for my place to live. right now i live in Gdansk and work in Polish Nordic Walking Federation's office. travelling is definitely my passion, because thanks to it i can broaden my horizons! i'm interested in music, books, history and travels - i'd love to know new people and new places. i'm fascinated by travelling by trains, hitch-hiking and hiking.
people call me often "Pasazerka", which means "passenger girl" and it perfectly describes me, because i can't stay in one place for long.

i'm little bit shy and i prefer to listen than to talk but when you asked me about something which is my passion probably i will talk and talk and talk and can't stop :)

I travel like St Christopher !
You are the hardest of hardcore travelers, and may one day be our patron saint. There is no challenge that is too much for you, but don't get crazy, because you are not immortal...yet.

PHILOSOPHY

If you dance - dance to the bitter end, if you drink - drink to empty yours glass and then throw it in world's eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

i listen many diffrent kinds of music but i especially like classic rock, punk, ska and folk. also jazz and electronic, but i need to it a right atmosphere.

i also love books - my favourite writer is Umberto Eco, Stephen King and Andrzej Sapkowski, but i also like historic books, crime stories, biographies, even romances. i think i'm a real bookworm :)

some time ago i also started watching movies, so i'm catching up. but my favourite movies are still "The loners", "Everything is iluminated", "The name of the rose" and "The Godfather".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- spent whole summer with familiar rock band driving around Poland.
- arrived from the Baltic Sea to Mediterranean Sea via hitch hiking
- came back from Macedonia with 10€ for 2 persons in pocket

Teach, Learn, Share

i can share with you my memories from my travels and bring you closer our country and culture.moreover i'm still learning cooking, so i can do something for you, for example my spectacular dish - pasta with broccoli (and chicken, if you aren't a veggie) in cheese sauce or pasta with chicken and mushrooms in sour cream sauce. or you can do something for me :)and of course i can teach you some polish words and there won't be only damns, really! :)
