Hello there!

I am Joanna. I was born in Poland, but grew up in south of Sweden. I am currently living in Copenhagen since 2018.

When I am not studying or working, you will find me in the park, reading a book or listening to my favorite tracks whenever the weather is good, watching fantasy/art house films, play basketball weekly with my favorite team, discovering new eateries/music events in the city, practicing polish, shooting street photography film, travelling, spending time with friends/family or just be at home and enjoy my own company with books, podcasts, writing and take care of my plants. 🌻

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just recently found out about the community and I think the concept is amazing. Although I am new to this, I am hoping to discover different parts of the world and do some intercultural learning while meeting other people and hopefully develop a friendship.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Athens, Greece for my previous internship. It was amazing to experience a different culture, learn the greek language/history/philosophy/art/nature/gastronomy. I met wonderful locals that became friends during my time there.
