About Me

Hello! My name is Magda and my partner is Tom, we're from the UK and have lived and travelled in Europe, South America and India.

We recently travelled in India, working freelance on projects to help us sustain slow and meaningful travel. Now we are based in the UK.

I am a visual artist with experience in film making, photography and design, focusing on projects that support local communities and environmental action.

Tom is a computer programmer focusing on open source technologies. We both practice yoga, meditation and follow a plant-based diet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for deeper experiences of local communities when travelling, getting to know places away from the tourist track. To meet new people and share what I can :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a wide range of music from jazz, funk, soul and disco to techno, jungle and hip hop. Classical music, ambient, pyschedelic rock and music from all over the world.

I am interested in global cinema and like to watch anything that isn't predictable or big Hollywood films. Short films, documentaries, surreal and abstract are great.

Mostly I have read classic novels and I also like non-fiction.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach/share my knowledge in film, video editing, photography and design. I also love to cook and can share vegan recipes from around the world.
I would love to learn new recipes, languages and about your local culture. Especially interested in the environment and nature around your home.
