About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Try to find myself in a big big world ;)

ABOUT ME

As everybody in CS I love traveling and meeting new people - If not I wouldn't be here ;) Now I am on my last year in The Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw (Design Faculty) where I am trying (sometimes desperately) to make my master diploma. Before I was living in the little town near Lyon in France - Saint Etienne where I was studying in L' Ecole d'Art et Design and where I did my bachelor degree.
I am from south of Poland - from Cracow where I am from time to time to visit my family and friends. Most of the time I am in the capital - working, studying, having fun :)

PHILOSOPHY

Meeting new people and traveling is the best way to find and really get to know yourself :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I’ve been surfing for a while with friends or all alone - CS was always a great experience ;) I hosted few people in Cracow. Now I have a chance to do it in Warsaw.

Interests

I love dancing. I practice dancehall from almost one year and I love it because it it is not just about dance but also about the culture and the way of living. I also enjoy sailing; I like cooking and make the culinary experiments in the kitchen - with my flatmates we arrange from time to time nice, big dinners for our friends (and our couch surfers). We love to cook for other people. I'm higly interested in different cultures - I like to discover their music, food,history,ways of living - it is big inspiration for my everyday life ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trip to Jamaica where I was dancing with the best jamaican dancehall dancers :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know if I can teach anything, because I don't feel good enough to be "a teacher" but I can share - I can always share a diner, a bottle of wine or a lot of nice stories. I can simply share my time with you:)
