About Me

Currently an International Relations student at university. Human rights activist fond of participating in international events and seminars.

Apart from searching for cheap accommodation (which is important for a young traveller), I would like to get to know the authentic local way of living by meeting interesting people and learning about the local folk culture, cuisine and of course history.

I am easygoing and pleased with little things like a good wine, a roof over my head, a camera and a strong wish to explore and have fun. That's the meaning of cs btw.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It started as a cool way to find cheap accommodation, but it turned out to be much more than that.
I really want to interact with the locals, my hosts and my guests and find the authentic vibe of the city I visit. I really trust the host much more than a simple travel agent or anyone else who could show me just the most touristic and loudest areas. Couchsurfing is ideal for exploring the mysteries of each area, so that's why I'm on here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Exploring Riga by constantly walking for a bit less than 4 hours before I caught my flight.

Being almost kicked out of a palace in Warsaw when I refused to join the compulsory tour in POLISH! I don't speak Police people!

I really want to learn chess sometime in the future.
