Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Exploring & discovering, tasting, seizing opportunities to travel and to meet new people.
ABOUT ME
It's very hard to describe "all" about me, because I am a type of explorer who feels that never knows everything.
I love traveling and exploring. I am not able to sit in one place for long ... I feel a deep desire to discover new places and meet new people.
I have to admit that as a human being I feel a deep need for some time on my own to contemplate and reflect. That's why I fell in love with backpaking and traveling alone. :) The world is so interesting when nothing seems similar!
My motto is - Never think twice about an opportunity that is given to you :)
PHILOSOPHY
let me quote the Irish blessing:
"May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've met amazing people thanks to the language groups and also by surfing.
I will be delighted if someone is willing to come and stay at my place - feel invited :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Thanks to CS I've managed to visit many places in Europe. I've met wonderful people, drunk perfect wine and eaten delicious food.
But what I really appreciate is the local perspective provided during my stay in Bologna while being an au pair there in 2013.
This year I am in the USA and without CS I wouldn't meet so many AMAZING people and experience real American vibes all over NJ, Pennsylvania, NY and CT!

Teach, Learn, Share
Since I am at the "business" university course, I am able to write business & work correspondence. It will be great to share my knowledge with someone who needs it :)
BTW, as Polish is my native language, it will be great to teach you some basic words! :)
I am also willing to teach you how to cook some Polish dishes!
