About Me

CURRENT MISSION

earn enough to be able to travel trough Central and South America for a year or so...

ABOUT ME

I'm from Lodz - a city situated almost exactly in the centre of Poland. After finishing my studies I moved out to The Netherlands, starting as a traineee... and I stayed for now :) I also spent an amazing year of my life, as an Erasmus student in Granada (Spain)

PHILOSOPHY

to change and grow

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started to use CS in July 2009, as a surfer, travelling through Northern Spain. I simply loved this experience and all people that I met thanks to CS. Living for one year in Granada I discovered the power of CS community. I hosted some people there.

Interests

Spain - its language and culture,
People - because one can learn more from them, than from any book,
Music - I simply can't live without it. Music gives me energy.
Dance - because dancing I feel happy,
Sports - skiing, swimming, mountain hikes, gym, recently also jogging

And obviously TRAVELLING!!! But I think it's not necessary to mention this interest here ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't read that much - I'm to disctracted. I like watching movies, but because of this distraction I tend to forget them. So sometimes I watch some movie for the thired time being strongly convinced that I've never seen it before ;)In Amsterdam I have a cineville pass which allows me to go to over 10 cinemas with no limits for a good price, so I basically watch everything that comes out, which is awesome! :)

Music is something that I can't live without... I can't say that I'm a fan of some particular kind of music. I listed to everything which I find good, interesting and intriguing.
