I'm a Polish student studying in the UK, so I spend half a year in England and another half in Warsaw. I have a great passion for travelling (mostly with friends) and meeting new people from different parts of the world. I love experiencing new things. I'm interested in arts but in the future, I would like to engage with development economics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe that travelling is all about meeting new people that are the best way to learn about new cultures. It's also a great way to share not only a place to sleep but also great stories and experiences.
