About Me

CURRENT MISSION

New to the Couch Surfing World - travel, travel, travel!!!!

ABOUT ME

I am a 23 year old modern languages student, Polish, doing my degree in England and Spain. I love traveling, reading (a great Margaret Atwood fan) and sleeping. I am organized and responsible, curious and intelligent. I love languages. Lately very into meditation, zen, and tai chi chuan. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Living the life according to our principles, being a good person, believing in the now.

"There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way" Christopher Morley

"If we spoke a different language, we would perceive a somewhat different world" Ludwig Wittgenstein

"If we aren`t willing to pay a price for our values, then we should ask ourselves whether we truly believe in them at all" Barack Obama

Interests

reading: my top three authors are as follows
Margaret Atwood (genious, her work always stuns me)
Haruki Murakami (a great writer, witty and intelligent)
Isabel Allende (magic and realism, an incredible woman)
I love Siri Hustvedt and Hjalmar Soderberg too!

languages:
Polish - mother tongue, dear to my heart
English - the language of my thoughts and emotions
Spanish - the language I have been studying for 7 years now and which I love more and more every single day
Portuguese - a beautiful language I study in Spain
Galician - the language of the region I currently live in, sweet and welcoming
