CURRENT MISSION

Travel travel travel. I have a big list with a big 2015 travel plan that I'm trying to work on. And moving away is step 2 - best would be somewhere abroad.

ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Iwi (E-V-E), born in Poland, raised in Germany. I am an outgoing person, I freakin loooove to travel and would love to see the whole world. I lived for over a year in Atlanta (USA) in 2013 and miss it so much - would love to move back.
What should I tell you about myself... well, I'm a crazy, quirky girl who likes beer, likes to travel, meet new people and do fun and interesting stuff, who loves to laugh and being silly and goofy sometimes. I love documentaries (I know - how boring :-P) and I have a weird taste when it comes to movies - genre's not very important - from The Green Mile to Pride and Prejudice to Crank... what?! Yes, whatever hits my taste...

PHILOSOPHY

I haven't been everywhere... but it's on my list (actually that is so me...)
Eat well - travel often
Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer
life is short - eat dessert first...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started couchsurfing in the US in 2013 when I didn't know anyone. That's when I met a bunch of cool people and made really good friends. So I basically surf, go to local events and as soon as it's possible, I hope to host some of you, too! Right now my place is too small.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It is definitely an amazing platform to meet people and make some unforgettable memories. I really look forward to try it out in Europe now :)

Interests

I love traveling and meet new people and cultures. I love sightseeing when I'm in a new place and just absorb every possible bit that a city/culture can offer. One of my passion is also to try local food and beer. You'll most probably find me ordering a local beer in a new place - happens quite a lot.
I also like spending time with my family and friends with a good dinner, drink or just on the couch with a good conversation. Reading is also a big passion of mine - right now I'm reading a crazy Swedish psychological thriller - the Swedes....
I used to do a lot of sports when I was younger... of that sounds like I'm so old... no just lazy, I guess :D
I love swimming and skiing and recently I started with yoga and I love it - I always thought that's something for skinny, stretchy people - but no, I could do that and I think that will be a new hobby.
Two goals that I have before I die is learning to paint and photography.

Music, Movies, and Books

uh there's a lot. I don't have a specific band I love. It depends on what I am doing. I love clubbing to electro/house, I love listening to pop and typical radio lala when I'm on the road, and I love funky funny crazy music while cleaning :D
ATM Macklemore is my absolute favorite and I could listen to it aaall the time :)
When it comes to movies: The Green Mile, American History X, all Disney movies, the whole SAW series, girly oldschool Grease and Dirty Dancing, Ghost, Expendables haha and a loot of TV Shows. Favorite is Castle and The Following.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So far.. an east coast trip in the US with a couple of friends, living abroad for over a year and traveling as much as I could at that time... and swimming with whales in Hawaii... well kinda...

Teach, Learn, Share

I just like to learn as much as I can from other experiences. I'm just open to everything new and as I said, I like to absord just everything that a city, place, person, culture etc. has to offer. And I would also like to share mine and teach people what I think or have seen.
