About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find beautiful places and spaces, meet great people, enjoy the life... and find myself ;) Current beautiful place I am exploring is ESTONIA! The country I fell in love with...

PHILOSOPHY

La vie est belle!
Everything will be OK in the, if it is not OK, it is not the end.
Everything will pass... good moments, bad moments... like clouds on the sky...
I want to help to others, make them smile, share with them, inspire them and be inspired by them, share stories and admire differencies which give us possibilities...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now, I am in Estonia and want to explore this lovely country! I will be happy to find somebody who can show me interesting places here or in other countries. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started with CS in France - because I had no room to live in, it was pretty difficult but in Lille there was Marion, my first CS-friend! Thanx a lot! And then I was using the CS also after this, met some great people and I am happy that CS exists :)

Interests

I love juggling and fireshow, I love street art, I love books, music, art, photography and dreams, dreams, dreams...
I love photography!!! Las few years, I am taking pictures, I try to realise my photo-projects I have in my head, I love to take pictures of people and trying to learn new things with my camera.
And I love foreigner langugages! I want to learn almost every languages on the world :)
I like to travel, to do something useful, to share interesting ideas about ecology.
I like to talk about horoscopes, dreams, elfs and dwarfs, legends and myths, rituals connected with the nature...
I like DIY, juggling, fire shows, waking up women's power and beauty, last time I am more and more interested in body positivity, feminism, apread the idea about loving yourself, help others to be more confident and more happy with who they are...
For me, squats are places full of amazing people, great atmosphere, creative minds and I like them :) I want to do dumpster diving (I tried only once), because it's a good way how to fight against wasting of food and everything else in this society. I'd like to go to some Rainbow gathering. I like alternative ways of living, I hope that one day I will have my little farm or garden where I can plant vegetable and fruits and I will be able to live peacefully my happy life there :) Or somewhere else, on the road... who knows :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books? Fantasy - Tolkien, Sapkowski, Pratchett, Gaiman!!! But I read lot of books and it is not ONLY fantasy (but the biggest part :D ) - Muriel Barbery, Boris Vian, Charles Bukowski, Sylwia Chutnik, Andrzej Stasiuk... I like to speak about literature and I'am waiting for your suggestions :)

Music? I am very openminded...
Rock'n'Roll, Rock, Punk, Jazz, Electroswing, Swing, ...
Parov Stelar, Ewert and two dragons, Fratelis, The XX, Royal Republic, Katzenjammer, The Pretty Reckless, Crystal Fighters, Of Monster and Men, Dub FX, Maarja Nuut, Trad.Attack!, Louis Armstrong,...

Movies? Samsara and Baraka - without words but so deep and so heartbreaking... I like cartoons and fairytales, don't like horror movies and those with lot of blood, cruelty etc. And usually I don't watch movies very often, because I have always impression that I can do someting else and more useful! :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everywhere is something really beautiful and unforgettable...
But you know what is really really beautiful and amazing? Sky and clouds! I LOVE CLOUDS! Look how they are beautiful!
I went to Estonian bog (raba) in Sooma National Park and it was magical! I fell love with this Estonian nature. And I made there best photos ever :) Estonian bogs are like from fairytale, I have never seen something like that before!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you something from languages I know - Czech, Polish and French, maybe Estonian. And of course I can talk about Czech traditions, country...
I can try to tech you to juggle with three ball or poi or something other (stuff, hulahoop...).
And of course we can talk about traveling, places we have been to, stories from ur lifes...

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can speak about unbearable lighteness of life, about journeys Nowhere and Everywhere. We can go to the park and have a great time with juggling (I want to learn, I am on the beggining), listening to the music or birds-songs... And if you want I can teach you the czech langugage :) We can cook some vegetarian or vegan delicious food. And I can take some photos of you, our time together, because I love photography and I have some photo-project in my head, so maybe you will be interested in it :)
We can share and talk and walk and inspire and just be and enjoy the moment :)
