About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To really focus on my PhD, to start learning Italian, to visit South America, Australia and New Zeland

ABOUT ME

Hi:)
I am a rather quiet person but with a strong personality. I am married and live with my husband in a little house in Poznan. I like to spend time with my friends, read and listen to music (jazz mostly). I enjoy teaching and playing the piano. I love to travel and meet new people, as well as to gain new experiences. Animals are great (dogs, cats, any:).
Currently I am a cultural studies and musicology major PhD student and received a Fulbright scholarschip so will be spending next six months in Berkeley, California:) I am also a PR menager for the online music magazine, MEAKULTURA (meakultura.pl - in polish, but we do have some articles in english). I write revies from festivals, articles and make interviews with musicians. My family and my friends are the most important people to me, I always do what I say, am honest and trustworthy. But not boring:)

PHILOSOPHY

Always go for whatever you dream of - only if you do, you have a chance your dreams will come true.
Believe in yourself.
Be modest.
Tell your family you love them.
Work hard.
Smile.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - The diary, Green mile, musicals (eg Chicago), but also good thrillers
Books - love Umberto Eco's irony, Ryszard Kapuscinski's war reportages and books about women in music. Don't have much time for anything else unfortunately
Music:
jazz - I love Leszek Możdżer, Lars Danielsson, Edmar Castaneda
classical - I enjoy Grażyna Bacewicz, Lily Boulanger, Chopin and Tschaikovsky
pop - Adele does have some great songs
