About Me
CURRENT MISSION
don't live up to anybodys expectations
ABOUT ME
I'm an open-minded, optimistic and lively person, who likes to experience every single moment of her life, cherish its beauty and cope with its difficulties. I love to travel, experience new cultures and meet fantastic people. I feel like trapped when I have to stay at one place for too long, that's why I started to hitch-hike few months ago and made a profile on this website. Although my studies make it difficult, I do my best to spare some time for journeys. I'm rather emotional and honest and as long as you're honest with me - I see no obstacle in becoming friends.
PHILOSOPHY
Live and let others live too. Don't judge the book by its cover. Help the less fortunate - especially innocent animals.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm just a beginner, with hope for great journeys and meeting interesting people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have surfed 2 times and hosted once if I remember well... I haven't used this page in a while as I didn't have time for anything than my studies and summer work...
Interests
I study veterinary medicine. Mostly, I would like to specialize in exotic animals diseases. To make it short - I love animals. Recently me and my bf got ourselves a dog - wonderful, lively fox terrier, who makes my life waaaaay more interesting than I sometimes would like it to be ;). But he's adorable
Apart from that I'm a big fan of music, movies and books. Although I have no eduction in those cultural spheres, sometimes I happen to talk about them for hours (if I find a good companion). I love senseless strolls through beautiful cities (like Wrocà âaw, the city I live in currently), admiring the architecture, nature and - what is the most important thing - people, each one different, each one significant, each one unforgettable. I'm still looking for my "thing": I played a bit of guitar, took photos (love working in a darkroom), trained yoga... I'm just too impatient to finish anything I started!

Music, Movies, and Books
As long as it's good and I like it - almost everything. Huge fan of Woody Allen - I love the way he treats interpersonal relationships, with a accurate dose of sarcasm and irony but can take them really seriously, as long as they're worth it. Apart form him: Almodovar, Jarmusch, Burton (!!!), Tarantino, Zelenka, Kieà âºlowski... no, there's too many of them ;). Music: everything that would move me, jazz, rock, electronic, soul, pop, everything - everything. I love beautiful voices, recently I favour female vocalists: starting from longlife love Ella F. ending on canadian beauty Feist. Books: I don't have much time to read, but I'm working on that. Nabokov, Marquez, Cortazar...
