About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm an open, energetic and active person, who likes to get to know new people, intelectual discussions, books and art and who enjoys her work.
I graduated at the faculties of anthropology of culture and psychology and at the beginning of my way I wanted to commit to the promotion and PR of culture and art. Well... after several years of working in that displine I changed my mind and decided to concentrate on deeper things, contact with people, I wanted to feel the real usufulness of my job so I devoted to psychotherapy. I am now during the psychoterapic 4 year training in cognitive-behavioral approach. This is a very inspiring way for me.
What is special about me? Everybody thinks about itself that is extraordinary while most of us is super-ordinary;)
However, I think that I was gifted with a kind of sensitivity and joy that permits me to live my life intensively and enjoy the richness of the world. Be careful: I'm talkative! But I can feel the moment when you've got enough;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I used to host guests in the past, right now, because of my new appartment it is no longer possible, I just meet from time to time for a drink. I travel a lot.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Some time ago I hosted one girl from Germany, one guy from Turkey and one boy from China, for few days each of them. Since then I met with three guys for a drink. I shew Warsaw some people.
Interests
reading books, good movies, theatre, everything that concerns anthropology of culture, travelling, psychology. I love to work as a tour guide in Warsaw, Poland, which is my seasonal job. For many years I was playing as an actress in the theater troup and that experience was one of the most valuable in my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Well... bathing naked on the beach in the moontime isn't much original...
as well as walking on the roof of the very tall building... nor sleeping on a neighbour's dormat being completely drunk when I was 16... let's think more, dancing on a table - done, making street perfomances and collecting money for singing and playing - done.
To be honest, I think that the most amazing for my surrounding thing I've done was to leave my well paid job and change completely the career path without having anything in reserve.
Teach, Learn, Share
I work as a professional tour guide in Warsaw, I' ve been hosting tourists from all over the world, I would tell you about the city and its history with pleasure and also take you to clubs or more off the beaten track.
