CURRENT MISSION

To visit all the possible places in Latin America!

ABOUT ME

TOTALMENTE APASIONADA POR AMERICA LATINA! Mi plan es visitar todos los paises latinoamericanos y conocer bien la cultura latinoamericana.
Mi primera lengua extranjera es español = prefiero hablar español (NO ingles) :D Entonces si son de America Latina escribanme en español, porfa ;)

I love travelling and since I was a child I had been dreaming about going to South America. I don't know why but I was always crazy about this region. I started to learn Spanish (and later also Portuguese), Latin American dances etc. And suddenly I got an amazing opportunity of visiting South America - I went to Brazil for the exchange program. I spent one semester in Sao Paulo studying international economics. I used this time for travelling not only around Brazil but also in some other countries and I spent there time of my life.
And then I came back there again, moved to Lima, Peru, where I was participating in a volunteer program... but also had a lot of possibilities to travel around.
And then... I started to travel as much as possible to Latin America (did some long lonely backpacking tours through Mexico, Central America and then South America) and also I started to work as a tour leader guiding Polish groups through Latin America! :D

PHILOSOPHY

I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I didn't know that CS is such a wonderful thing until I went for my exchange program to Brazil and I started to travel there using CS. I was couchsurfing during all my South American travels in six countries and all the experiences were unforgettable! I met great people, visited interesting places (that most tourists don't know) and also had some nice parties :)
I know that it can sound a bit trite but now I really cannot imagine travelling without Couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are some of them:
- Road trip in southern Patagonia, i.e. four girls, one car and the roads of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego (Land of Fire);
- lonely Amazon River cruise;
- Cycling down the most dangerous road in the world - Bolivia's Death Road;
- 2 great carnivals: in Rio de Janeiro and in Salvador, Bahia

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn more Portuguese (as it is still not really good) and some Latin American dances. But I'm also always really interested in practising my Spanish.
And I can teach you Polish ;)
