ABOUT ME

Me and my boyfriend are going to have our big backpacking trip this year from May to end of July. We have been talking about it for 2/3 years and finally it is happening. I quit my job in April in order to do it and make a new start afterwards. I have worked for a Polish company for 3 years that gave me a lot flexibility and opportunite to work remotely but I felt I couldn't learn anything new anymore so that trip was a good reason to push for the change and challenge.

The trip will not only give me the change to see completely different world but I would like also to take is a change to improve my photograph skills.
The trip will start in Hawaii move to Japan for the biggest part, then South Korea, Hong Kong, fly back to Europe. It will be my first trip in Asia so it is very exciting and I have been trying to learn some Japanese before it.

Otherwise, I love learing langauges and speaking about them, I like translating and doing photography. I have been more and more instested in physics (level popular science) lately. I would like to learn more about economics, politics, psycology, there are so many instesting things to read about.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

The best way to explore a place or a culture is by meeting the local people, spending time with them, hearing their thoughts, recommendations, point of view on different topic and just way of thinking. Not to mention that they know the best places to visit, where locals go and are not just a tourist trap.

I aslo enjoyed hosting/hanging out with other travellers as I can show them the place I live and see my country or a city with their eyes as a new thing. This is really exciting to me as I can discover new aspects of a familair place. I found also very intristing to hear their stories about their trips or anything else they find important to share with.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Living one year in Norway among the fjords in a very small place with a quite closed community. I had one of the best views one could get from their window. Despite the amazing nature, one year of rain and living in a very small town was enough for me. :)

Being volunteer on a music festival in a Georgian village with poor conditions, difficult issues and amazing, creative people who want to change the world to better by doing it themselves.
