ABOUT ME

Hello Everybody:)
I'm Gosia and I come from Hel (sounds funny?:) but that's true. I grew up in the north of Poland, but I had the great opportunity to study in Kraków - one of the most beautiful cities in Poland.
My interests in short: languages, philosophy,psychology, photography and life:)

Well,it's pretty hard to describe oneself objectively - some even say that there's much more truth about ourselves in a gossip, than in introspection, so maybe
instead of writing too much, we'll just meet in one of CS events? I often participate in them:)

PHILOSOPHY

Live in such a way that you wouldn't regret anything.
Si vis amari, ama - If you want to be loved, love.

"If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway."
- Mother Teresa

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started my experience with CS in September 2010 in Spain and since then I've had a pleasure to be hosted by others and I've been a host since Octomber 2013 (finally I live on my own!:))

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

For now on - only positive! I met so many interesting people! But there is one problem with CS. What's a pity that I got to know about it so late!;)

Interests

I'm interested in life:) As simple as that. I love travelling - I'd like to admire the beauty of the world which is present in so many places! I like listening to the people because each of them has different experience and, even if it may sound banally - each of us is unique.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie: 'Forest Gump'. Music? Well, it depends. For instance: Tracy Chapman, Neil Young, Stare Dobre Malzenstwo, Norah Jones. Books - the one from my childhood - 'Anne of Green Gables';)
Thomas Merton - "New Seeds of contemplation", "No man is an island", "Wisdom of the Desert" and others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking through East Poland and Lithuania! Of course not on my own:)

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning English. I'm deeply convinced of the advantages of knowing foreign languages. It opens so many gates! It's amazing!
