About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm 27 years old, I'm an open-minded person, happy, cheerful, and which aims to target.
I like all sports, but cycling, runing and volleyball the most.
I used to be professional cyclist, amator runner and triathlonist. Now no sport anymore :D I am resting.
In October I am starting African Studies in University of Warsaw. I will learn swahili! :D can't wait!
I like listen to music (especially hip hop and pop), meet new people and visit new places :) I love to travel ;)
I want to spend my live in travel, not living in one place much time. I think about starting my "Never Ending Travel" when I will be about 35-40 years old ;)
PHILOSOPHY
You only realize how much you are strong, when being strong is the only choice you have.
Everything is in our mind.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am talking about CS to a lot of my friends and I am trying to show them how does it work ;)
Sometimes I can host, but really small number of people want to stay in Lodz :D
Maybe when I will live in another place it will be more travellers ;)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I did my whole trip by bike from Lodz to Paris and back just using CS :) It was very incredible experience. I met a lot of fantastic people! ;)
I made my another bike trip from Łódź to Zittau (Germany) and one more to Berlin also using mainly CS :)
I was in Vienna for a weekend, I found host also in Gdansk during my very first marathon ;)
I was hosting couchsurfers while I was living in Aveiro, Portugal.
