Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to make my dreams come true. I look for adventure and I'm sure that meeting people is the best way of learning and travelling. It would be so amazing to have friends in every corner of the world since 'journey is best measured in friends, not in miles'. I want to share with you everything I can - my memories and dreams, my passion and knowledge, my experience and my fears.

Interests

I'm into photography and good books, baking and trying new things, but I love travelling the most and everything related to it - from watching travel films or reading guides to packing a backpack and going at large. I love being with people and I consider it as my main hobby - I just love to talk to people about nothing and about everything. I like photography and I do not go anywhere without my camera with a fully charged battery, then I do my journals with photos to be proud of myself that I've been to so many beautiful places and met so many people. I like writing - I want to be a journalist, write articles, keep a recognizable blog about my travels and release a book someday. I am crazy about studying American history and culture and I want to understand as much as possible the American phenomenon of life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in 3 countries before turning 22, swimming with dolphins in the wild, hiking Kilauea volcano in Hawai’i, sleeping in the desert, driving the Rt 66, seeing a Broadway show, working and studying abroad, making international friendships that last, truly loving my first love for more than 4 years, being happy with my life

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can give you my time and knowledge, share hobbies and talents, learn new things, recipes, customs or language and try to find together the beauty of the world in every-day life. I live in a small town in the southern Poland and there is a lot to see around so I will help you to see as much as possible there. What is more, I stay in Kraków - the most beautiful city in Poland in my opinion (and not only mine) for majority of time because I study there so we can spend a great great time together there also! Let's start the adventure together!
