ABOUT ME

Hi everyone! My name's Monika, I'm Polish and currently I'm a student of the Korean Studies at the University of Warsaw in Poland. I have been living in Poland whole my life and so far I haven't had many opportunities to travel abroad. Actually I went only to Korea last summer for a special program for international students majoring in Korean.
I'm an ordinary person who tries to find happiness in little things that surround me:)

PHILOSOPHY

"No matter how hard it is now, it will always be good in the end. If it's not good then it's not the end."

"Nothing is impossible"

Music, Movies, and Books

I am in love with Korean music (I like kpop of course but I also adore Korean ballads)

I love "Crime and punishment" by Fiodor Dostoyevsky and "Potop" by Henryk Sienkiewicz.

When it comes to movies, of course I watch a lot of Korean movies (I'm not really into Kim Ki-duk movies though) but at the same time I really like hollywood movies - spectaculous action movies, adventure movies, melodramas and romantic comedies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*Many people probably don't know who Super Junior is, but it's a very popular K-pop boysband (South Korean pop). I met 3 members of Super Junior and talked to them personally in Korean^^

*I won the first Korean speech contest in Poland.

*I was on the Korean news on the Internet~

Teach, Learn, Share
