About Me

It's always been hard to me to fill this type of forms because I change so quickly that I'd have to actualise this section once a week. Anyway, having no choice (for leaving this space blank scares away potential hosts) I'll try to produce something.
I'm going to study Psychology and Buddhist Studies to open a Buddhist psychotherapy clinic. I really want to go to India and see how Buddhist methods are used to treat PTSD among Tibetan refugees. In two years time I want to start medicine and achive a degree in psychiatry to prove that mental diseases are not what we think they are (Provided I got time to prepare to chemistry and biology exam...). The thing I can incessantly talk about are Buddhist practices with mind.
I use the opportunity, which is living in mountains, and, especially recently, hike a lot. Hopefully, by the end of August, I plan to achieve the whole Polish Tatra and start exploring the Slovakian ones. I like hiking because of the feeling that I have completed a hard task when I get to the top.

Well, that's it.
