Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
See, feel, experience, know, learn... But still dreaming
ABOUT ME
I'm open-minded, smiling person :)
I often think about my destinations, search information, read and dream about different corners of the globe... I know, it's not original but I really want to see and admire what Word gives us. If I can savor of flavors of the world among cultures that created them, I feel I live :)
PHILOSOPHY
Take life as it comes
Because...
It always can be worse
But also...
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
Mark Twain
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I was with friends in Belgium in Gent on internship at the University we were living in a flat of man whom we've met using couchsurfing. We were busy but nonetheless we visited as much as possible also due to Couchsurfing.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Thanks to couchsurfing e.g. I ate the best soup in my life, spent nice evenings with countrymen abroad, felt like in the movie "Midnight in Paris", know the best places in Toruń and above all: regain faith in people.
I think it's very good idea. The world is full of fantastic people, couchsurfing is a very good way to meet them :)
Interests
Furthermore, I can't imagine life without: hiking in the mountains, my animals, dance- especially salsa and travel wherever!
I also interested in:
Latin American Dances and not only ( I learn Rock and Roll), cullinary (baking, cooking and tasting ;) ), literature, movies.
