I’m a London-born Polish girl, who tries to finish her BA in American Studies. I like to travel around, visiting new places and meeting people from diverse cultures.

I try to stay positive and be kind to everyone even if they aren’t to me. I’m a rather shy, quiet and calm person who opens up during good conversations. People tend to tell me I’m a positive and make their mood light up.

Most of my life I’ve lived in Poland in little a town on the outskirts of Warsaw (the capital), where I graduated in high school and went to Uni.
During my free time I like to spend time with my friends, watching movies, taking dance classes, riding a bike.

Currently I’m on Work&Travel programme in US which is a reason I can’t host anyone. I was waitressing at one of the resorts in central Minnesota and now I’m doing the travel part 😆

Before I traveled mainly only in Europe with family, friends or by myself. The latter mostly visiting friends or just one day trip somewhere. I’ve spent one year in Lausanne, Switzerland for a one year exchange. I met people from around the world there and still miss chatting and making dinners with my international roommates there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling around US and what better way to visit the country then by meeting local people? I love meeting people from around the world, getting to know other cultures and cuisines.
I also believe that by showing around you learn about your area yourself.
I’ve also been told that I am a great London guide so whenever I’m there and free would love to show around!

Music, Movies, and Books

I don’t have specific preferences towards music as long as I can dance to it or chill out and it’s good for my ears. I love using spotify. You can find famous songs on my account but also songs from less popular artists like Daya or the Dumplings.

Last time I went to cinema(btw in NYC), I saw Black K Klansman and I really liked it, Spike Lee's Do the right thing is one of my favourite films too. Others movies I liked:
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Palm trees in the snow
Southside with you
Suite Française
Life is beautiful
The Pianist
The art of loving

I’m currently reading Crazy Rich Asians. My favourite book is before I die. I wish I had read more books though. I started to enjoy reading rather late in my life because of my dyslexia.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experience and talk about Polish culture and history which is very much interesting. I could also try to make a dinner or lunch, but I am not a great cook!
