About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The Happiness is not a goal. It's a lifestyle...

ABOUT ME

Oh God. I always feel sick, when I see such a part of profile. But in few short words: I am on doctoral studies at University in Poznan. But I've been living in Cracow since a year.

I feel scare when I see a sprider and it's the one reason which refrains me of going to Australia. But I've been fighting with that, by using methods of little steps :P The last it's gonna be Australia trip. I feel bored, when I think about living in one place for long time. I need to move - every single longer trip is for me like a new challenge: go there, get used, make friends and have beautiful memories. Till now I've done just a few longer trips:- on 2008 and 2009 I moved away for few months to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA. My frist time for so long and so far from home. Good lesson of life.- on 2009 I studied for half a year in Bochum, Germany. Best parties and most difficult exam session in my entirer life.- summer 2010 (almost) wasted in my own city, but hmmm helped me to find diffrent way in my life. And actually one month i spent on fallin' in love with Italy and Croatia :)- on 2011 I went to Corfu, Greece. I did some internship in tourism office. Nice people, lots of experience.

PHILOSOPHY

Find your way in life and don't care what people say about it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch lots of movies, but I cannot say that one of them or one type of them is my favourite. It depends on my mood. I have just one habitat - I love watching series during my dinner :D It's like inseparable part of eating - without this part, I feel still hungry ;P

About books - I love reading about another cultures and cooking. So I spend lot of time on reading guides, novels of writer from other countries and cookery books. Before I come to another country, I'd love to know, how ppl live there, what they eat and when they have unique celebrations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's impossible for me to limit amazing things I've done till one of them :) It's planty of it and here is a few examples:

- power and beauty of Niagra Falls (USA)
- divin' on Paleokastritsa: watchin'amazing underwater world (kind of live show on Animal Planet;) ) (Corfu Island, Greece)
- swimmin' in Blue Eyes (place where river begins. Freezing cold water and pressure, which don't let you to dive) (Albania)
- walkin' in Dead Sea (Israel/Jordan)
- discovering Pamukkale (Turkey)
- wondering how people without advanced technologies built monasteris in Meteoras (Greece)
- walking around 10 km by west coast of Bornholm Island and watching amazing landscape from ruins of Hammershus (Denmark)
- the Lycian architecture in Kayakoy, Patara, Dalyan, Pinara and Leton. The Lycian way is one of my aims for this year (Turkey)
- 4 levels of beautiful caves with Buddha's sculptures in Mulkiringala (Sri Lanka)
- a wild safari in Udawalawe National Park. Elephants, buffalos, parrots, peacocks, crocodilles. Wish to do it one more time! (Sri Lanka)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am quite well in languages - polish, english, german. I've just started learning spanish and russian - of course the second it's easier for me and the first one - I fall in love, but I still have lot of troubles with this language! If you want, we can practise our skills :)
I play scrabble - we can play together :) It could be funny! :D
I am good driver - I can be your teacher:)
And I am "the queen of the frying pan and pots" :D So enjoy my dishes or come to learn something about cooking.
