Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As probably most people on this app, I am a traveller by heart and I love experiencing new things, meeting amazing people all over the world and learning about other countries. Too bad I cannot do this full-time, but I want to experience as much as I can during this summer break, and I hope I will end up with a lot of life-long memories : ) I strongly believe that homesharing gives you much more authenthic human and cultural experience than staying in hotels or even hostels…

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music, films and books I always prefer the old ones. Queen, The Beatles, Abba, Elthon John, Nirvana and Roxette speaking about music, Mrs. Doubtfire, Groundhog day, 13 going 30 and Grease about films and Jane Austen, Alexandre Dumas, Arthur Conan Doyle and Louisa May Alcott about books. Of course there are exceptions - I love Adele's and Maneskin's songs, Bridget Jones films and modern fantasy books, but who doesn’t…

Oh and i LOVE all the sitcoms, especially How I Met Your Mother. All of them are my softspots.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me and my choir went to the trip to Vatican few years ago, and we sang in Saint Peter's Basilica on a morning mass next to the John Paul II pope grave - he was very important to my country. When we arrived, the basilica was empty for the first few minutes which was truly magical. We sang few songs in front of a lot of people and a hundred priests around us. The experience was unforgetable.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can offer... I can teach you polish, russian or english : ) I also can teach the basics of crocheting if someone wants :0 I can give you company for some walks, maybe a visit in an escape room or a museum... I can help you with some errands, babysit or take care of pets : ) I have some fun life stories which we can share with each other

What I Can Share with Hosts

Recently I got an apartment in my home city, Bydgoszcz, so if you ever come to Poland during academic year - there is a high chance I will be able to host you : )

To start, I really care about cleaness and will certainly not leave any mess whatsoever. I would also be very glad to help in the house as much as I can (if needed). I can provide you with some interesting talks - even if I might be a little bit shy at first, it always ends with me talking a lot : )
I am very flexible and I can adjust to any rules or needs of the host; There is nothing more I need than a little space for sleeping.
My main goal is not to visit as much as I can, but rather to feel the journey to its fullest, to dive in into this culture and to integrate with the locals. I would like to explore a lot the cities I stay in, and I would love to have some company : )
As I have written before, I love crocheting, and I would really like to share my work with people I visit. I have some little projects in mind I could do during my travel, and I would like to leave you something so we remember each other well : )
Last but not least, I consider myself as a very good listener. I would love to hear some of your stories! The fact hat there are 8 billion people out in the world with diffrent backgrounds and life experiences is breathtaking to me and I would like to know at least some of them.

Thank you for taking the time to read all this, hopefully see you soon!
