Hi guys! My name is Ilona, I am 25 and I live in Cambridge MD. I am originally from Poland, but I have moved here almost 3 years ago. I have degree in accounting and I work as customer service representative for one of the firearms manufacturer here in MD. When I am not working I am usually working out, doing something fun with my 2 cutest dogs ever or hanging out with my friends. I love cooking and I love baking. I am always down for something fun!

CURRENT MISSION

I recently started planning another road trip around US, where I wanna focus on things I wasnt paying attention before. I live in MD, but honestly, I really wanna pack my backpack and discover states I have never been before and see how my life in there could look like. I wanna find myself, my place in here and hopefully this trip is gonna help me with that. My mission is - Florida, Texas, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Illinois. Who is gonna help me with that? ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used CS for very first time during the summer of 2014, when I was spending my first summer in United States. Some things in my life has changed since then and I moved here for good. I was not using CS after my first road trip, but it was amazing experience for me and I loved staying with people. Last few years my travel experience was based on staying in hotels and honestly, it was never as fun and exciting as couch surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with few people I met here and I loved it. It is just amazing that you can enjoy area you are staying at with little help from someone local. I admired all of my previous hosts for their hospitality and their involvement!

Interests

I love staying outside and staying active, although sometimes I enjoy staying at my place, on my couch, watching tv shows or movies. I love meeting new people and I like discovering new places. I am always down for checking out restaurants, bars, venues or any type of events.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC:
I dont really have my favorite kind of music. I like everything. Sometimes you can find me listening to classic, relaxing music, sometimes electronic, and sometimes old good pop. My neighbors probably hate me for that.

MOVIES:
I love comedies, dramas and (I thought I will never say that) romantic movies.

BOOKS:
I feel little bit bad, because I havent been reading as much as I used to, but I will take good recommendations. My favorite book is Little Prince. I could read it all the time. Currently I read more cook books.
