Hi!
Everyone calls me Susie (Zuzia)

I love to travel and explore new places, including all the hikes and sightseeing possible. In my free time I spend most of the time outdoors, either on a walk, camping or just relaxing in nature. Lately I've become a huge fan of our Polish mountains and my plan next year is to become a guide in Beskid Mountains.
I'm an active person - in my free time I do some running and started training calisthenics lately. I'm also all about being environmentaly conscious,striving to minimize my ecological footprint through practices like adopting a plant-based diet and reducing waste.

Currently I'm on my gap year before pursuing my masters - I already did some amazing traveling and volunteering in South America for three months and now I'm eagerly planning my next adventure and welcome any recommendations with open arms! 😊

Meeting new people brings me much joy, we can grab smth to eat, drink or just chill and talk 😊
While I may not be a board game expert, I thoroughly enjoy a good game (I love ticket to ride and exploding kittens), so thats always an option 😊
As for cultural pursuits, I'm a huge Wes Andersons films fan, the Mowglis are one of my fav bands (just such a good vibe), I enjoy reportage and street photography (just watching it tho haha, no artistic cell in my body unfortunately) and I love all the museums possible - my favourite one so far is Guggenheim

At home, I'm accompanied by a delightful furry companion named Ari, who has taught me the art of giving the most affectionate kisses and cuddles to all the pets I meet

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to have the opportunity to explore and meet new people around the world :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a 6 week volunteer program in Ecuador, working with people with didabilities, which has thaught me so much about diversity, lack of inclusivity in our lives, cities and just everywhere around us, and lots os patience

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to get to know your culture more, it can be just talking or we can cook and share experiences together 😊 I of course can teach you to make pierogi, our traditional polish dish or bring some vodka haha

What I Can Share with Hosts
