Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learning about other people and cultures but also seeking through travel to gain insights into the self.
ABOUT ME
In general, I'm a huge nature lover. I appreciate all that mother Earth has given for us and we haven't destroyed it yet... That's why I love mountains...
After traveling a bit I think that I became a different person - more open-minded not only for foreign cultures but also for my lovely country.
Life is a journey - you can experience some special moments in your hometown or nearby - everything depends from your attitude and people you are surrounded by.
Now I am doing an EVS (European Volunteering Service) project in Funchal, Madeira island. This is a perfect place to practice my portuguese and to meet people from all other the world.
One of my hobby is photography... Foreign languages are my passion too, I can't live without it ;)
PHILOSOPHY
use up every minute and second of my life! ;) don't care about stereotypes!
“Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.” – Miriam Beard
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I think that this is a great idea and way to connect people. If you are travelling you should go deeper... Only local people and their stories can help you to do that! Isn't it wonderful to share your knowledge and life experiencies with others?

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a movie fan, I like to watch different kinds of movies, new ones and old ones and also some TV series... ;) My favourite series are about travelling, especially about some famous Polish travellers and their trips around the world as Martyna Wojciechowska or Wojciech Cejrowski.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Swimming in the Blue Caves in Montenegro, standing at the edge of Europe (Cabo da Roca, Portugal) and feeling sooo small...
