Neuroscience freak bitten by travel bug, avid runner who can't say no to good wine, mountain lover currently living by the sea. Aspiring general of the Universe. Tea lover and caffeine addict. So far, I've slept in feed rack, cave, numerous train stations, several airports, on the beach in the middle of Poland (I am kidding you not), and I loved every single minute of it. I don't make much fuss of anything, and I love hanging around with people who see the world in the same way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People. People in many ways. People who make me happy and people who don't. The first reason is certainly the fact that unlike uniform hotels, couchsurfing homes with their peoples in them are unique place with their own vibrant atmosphere. Secondly, and not surprisingly, it's about people who want my money. There are simply so many better things to do with those little papers than stuff them to some anonymous pockets for getting your bed done and breakfast made.

Interests

Can I write things I'm not interested in? It would be faster. I love any kind of sports, from running across Filipino martial arts to yoga (love doesn't equal being good at it, but one day...). I'm a hopeless bookworm, movie watcher and occasional writer. Crafts? Sure. Arts? Gimme me more. And of course, I mustn't omit passion for my Neuroscience degree and anything that has anything to do with it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a part of our University tradition, I swam in the North sea at sunset of the 1st of May. It was freezing cold, dark and I swore I would never do it again. So far, I've done it twice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hey, my mum is a teacher, not me! But I'll be happy to share anything I know or at least I can pretend I know, and learn anything you have to share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Songs, stories, any food and drink I'll have with me at the time, silly midnight laughs.
