Overview
About Me
We're a couple of adventurers, actively trying to make our world a better place with different pro-social projects, aiming to share awareness and the concept of universal consciousness. Our passions are music, visual culture, yoga, activism, traveling, vegan cooking, new experiences and meeting new people.
I work as a perfumer with a great passion for the world of scents. Last year I completed studies at the Visual Culture Management department at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw which has given me a wide spectrum of knowledge not only on the history of art but also in the humanities, social sciences and practice.
Iggy is a student of School of Ideas, dedicated to designing innovation in terms of social and cultural change, and our main goal right now is combining unique music events with charity and social work through our project Synergy Collective. In our spare time, we love to travel, dig for new music, dance to good tunes, experience and learn new things.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here because I feel that traveling means meeting fascinating people and through that process, we can actually feel the spirit of the place we're visiting.
Interests
I should have been born earlier so that I could be young in the 60's and be a part of the revolution. I'm interested in sounds, literature, and movies from that period and I'll be happy to talk about it with the hosts.
I appreciate many music genres but lately I enjoy listening ambient, soul, psychodelic rock&folk and I love to dance to funk, house and disco music. Iggy collects exotic sounds every day so listening to explored tunes with him is a pure pleasure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Iggy and I successfully organized 5 glorious fundraiser parties and concerts, combining our love for good music and helping others. We did it in order to support different foundations helping refugees, victims of racism/xenophobia/inequality, as well as protecting women rights because we felt that current political and social situation in Poland demanded quick and positive change. They were all great success, the purpose of other 2 was community work and building bridges between people of all nations, genders, sexualities and viewpoints.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'll be happy to share some knowledge about the world of scents and prepare delicious vegan meals for hosts and guests. While working in the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw as an education department contributor I guided visitors and helped them expand their understanding of the exhibitions, this experience has allowed me to understand how important it is to share knowledge and exchange ideas. I'll be happy to become a guide in our hometown and it's art and music scene.
