About Me

CURRENT MISSION

take over the world. but shush, it's top secret thing.

ABOUT ME

I'm a hostel worker so everyday I meet travellers and I absolutely love it.
I'm an easygoing person, love learning, I'm also really open-minded. I'm more pub person than club person but I do enjoy dancing so I never say no to a good party. I completely adore animals so if you have a pet just let me play with it and I'll be happy. especially if it's a dog. I LOVE DOGS. I'm also a bit of a cute (that's what other people say, at least), nerdy (that's what other nerds say) weirdo (that's what I say). have you seen 'The Room'? I know it's so bad but I so love it - I'm that kind of weirdo.

PHILOSOPHY

I will put my favourite Nietzsche quote here:
'You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.'

but also - be nice to people. the world doesn't need assholes. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

did the meetings, doing the surfing, now changed flats so preparing for hosting

Interests

Well. Surely travels. Getting to know other cultures - I used to be so much into Bollywood movies that now India is kind of my weak spot! If you are from India or you went to India - please please please just let me sit on the floor and listen to your stories! Same about Japan. :) besides that, I am one of those 'knowledge is so important' people so I am a bit into everything. Literally. If you support Donald Trump tho, that might be a bit of small issue between us.

Music, Movies, and Books

way way way way too many so I'll just mention that I am H U G E Beatles fan and I could discuss and sing their songs all the time. and I am H U G E BBC Sherlock fan so if you like the show, we are already good friends whether you want it or not. :) but I promise, I'm not a crazy fangirl! oh, and I am a Ravenclaw/Slytherin.

but I read more classy things too. fav book - Crime and Punishment.

I love people who have seen the miracle called Trapped in a Closet. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

did I mention I am huge Beatles fan? yes? I SAW PAUL MCCARTNEY LIVE!!!
rode an actual unicorn in Vilnius ;) okay, zunicorn but still!
went on completely unplanned spontaneous trip to Barcelona
learned all the dance moves from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Once.
took a vespa ride around Rome in the middle of a night
got lost (still not found)
traveled for love (with both good and bad endings)
went to least touristy baths in Budapest to feel like a damn princess

Teach, Learn, Share

currently, I'm studying the speech therapy so if you have any questions about that - I'm yours.
I believe that I'm learning something from every person that I meet and every experience that I have.
you can learn a lot just from one simple conversation at night over a cup of tea.

What I Can Share with Hosts

a can share a smile :)
over a breakfast, shot of vodka, board/card game, in the chillout pub, in the crowded club, on the walk, in the middle of the night, at 6 am when I look like a monster with my bed hair, in the beginning and in the end

or we could make pierogi
