About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world, follow map to its edges, and keep going (-;

ABOUT ME

I think that one of the first things that my frends would say about me is my addiction to travelling. I remember that in my bedroom as a child my parents pinned a world map on the wall. After spending my entire childhood dreaming about it I decided that one day I am going to visit every corner of the globe and I keep trying to make that dream come true ;) I have recently discovered that I have already been to 18 countries so far, maybe it is not that impressive, but I realised that somehow the more I travel the more aware i am of how much there is yet to discover ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Like many people, I seek inspiration in the thoughts and words of others. Here are some of my favorite quotes:

“twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover”
Mark Twain

“A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our door step once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over, because the film of memory continues running on inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill. Indeed, there exists something like a contagion of travel, and the disease is essentially incurable.”
Ryszard Kapuściński

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm just a beginner ;) This summer with my BF-Agnieszka (blondie on the left :P) we plan to travel a little bit across the Europe. It is our first experience with the couchsurfing ;) we are weirdly excited to see all of those beautiful places and hope for your help ;) We are not demanding guests-we have our karrimats and tent so some place on the floor or in the garden would work as well ;D hope to see you soon!! :)

Interests

Currently I am still studying, but I never forget about my real passions-travelling, windsurfing and skiing. I love to know at least a few words from the language of the place I am travelling to ;) All the languages that I have ever learnt, mix in my head and form me the way I am. I have left a little piece of my heart in each place I have visited.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that you can always learn something from anybody, sometimes more, sometimes less, but still will be richer of something new...

I can teach you some polish if you like challenges ;)
