I'm Paulina, soft-spoken, curious and open minded. Sometimes I might be more inclined to be quiet and observe the world around me but that doesn’t mean I won’t also hold strong opinions and be an active participant of our community.

Currently studying philosophy and working on long assignments from home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and experience the culture and lifestyle of each different country. And meeting people from all over the world is the best way to tackle a narrow world view and get to share space and understanding.

Interests

I love to read and often feel like there isn't enough time to emerse oneself in all the great stories. Nevertheless I always make time to discuss and recommend books to people I meet and I enjoy long talks.
When I don't read I like to take a walk in nature with or without a dog by my side or do some yoga and TaiChi.
Cooking vegan food with friends and playing card games is the best way to end a beautiful day.
I'm also very involved in queer feminist perspectives.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love the Harry Potter series (childhood memories) and Lord of the Rings. Some series I've recently watched are Euphoria, Young Royals and Anne with an E.
Some of my favourite books include: Watership Down, Flipped, A Little Life, Never Let Me Go and works by Haruki Murakami and Silvia Federici.
I like listening to alternative rock and ballads.
At the moment I like Leonard Cohen, Stevie Wonder, Tab Benoit, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Meditating on the coastline of Northern Ireland whilst being surrounded by fresh sea air.

Teach, Learn, Share

Listening to stories and sharing experiences with other people is the best way to learn about the world and gain a better understanding.
Studying philosophy, I'm always interested in new outlooks on life and society.

I can share my stories with you and hope to learn new things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a good conversation, someone to listen to your stories and occasionally be an inspiration in terms of vegan recipes.
