CURRENT MISSION

Hakuna matata

ABOUT ME

A bit scatterbrained %), but I make up for it with a great sense of humor. :)

I love:
hiking, biking, shmiking (why not? ;)), planning trips, looking at maps, staring at paintings in museums, a capella music, blueberry muffins, Ben & Jerry's/Haagen Dazs ice-cream (vanilla, uhmmm...), dancing, ice-skating, being helpful, laughing and... did I mention biking ?

I hate:
having to go to work on Mondays, lies and hypocrisy, all those who hate me ;),

PHILOSOPHY

Hakuna Matata!

Timon & Pumba (The Lion King)

Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends.
Edward Norton (25th hour)

“Remember what Bilbo used to say: It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.”

J.R.R Tolkien - Lord of the Rings

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Relatively new to CS, I hope this site gets me in touch with many fine people out there. I work an awful lot during the week, but would love to host some intrepid travelers over weekends.

So that you know - I'm NOT in it for flirting! I registered with CS to help people who are genuinely interested in traveling and learning about other cultures. I'm very much looking forward to my next guest! Do zobaczenia!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far my experience as a host has been inspiring :) As for surfing... sometimes it has been great, on other occasions - scary...

Intereses

Big fan of the Lord of the Rings
Fantasy books: Tolkien (LOTR), Terry Pratchett (Discworld), Frank Herbert (Dune), C.S. Lewis (Narnia),
Bilingual dictionaries - as I heavily depend on them for my work
I have a thing for walking. I love looooooooong walks, preferably with someone who enjoys one-on-one attention and long conversations.
I also like fixing things. For some reason being able to fix stuff gives me a sense of independence :)

I believe I can be quite helpful teaching English as a foreign language and... blowing your nose without a tissue ;)
