About Me

CURRENT MISSION

CARPE DIEM / SEIZE THE DAY

ABOUT ME

I'm an optimistic person open for adventures. I remember that every day it's possible to die, so I'd like to use every moment of my life in the best way. Personally, travelling gives me the power to do so. Meeting new friends enriches me, my life and my characteristic.

PHILOSOPHY

I think that we live to be happy. We should desire happiness. Everything which hurts us exists to show us how wonderful the absence of pain is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to visit inhabitants of different places while travelling. I think that's the best way of getting to know the world! Of course I'm also eager to give a shelter to anybody who wants to come to Poland. I believe that when we take anything, we should give as well. The balance is important in our lives.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been a member of the couch surfing community since 2011. But, in the past I had some possibilities to use some unknown people's couches. For example, when I was hitchhiking with my husband and my two daughters from Poland to Switzerland and back.

Interests

I love music. Different kinds of music - it depends on my mood, on the atmosphere of a place, on an occasion etc. I like reading very much. I love swimming, it's so relaxing. And obviously travelling around the world is my dream.
