About Me

Dear poeple, hi!
I`m Sylwia. I try to be a good person, for myself and for others, and to laugh often as much as I can : )
I like to find funny or serious subtitles on pavements/ walls/ wherever, watch murals , walk around the city at night and during a day in nature. I love long philosophical conversations while drinking tea. I don`t like alcohol, it`s really rarely when I drink it. Sometimes I have troubles in my life but the most important is I have so amazing people around me and they help me when they only can. I`m thankful to world that I have those people in my life <3 I like to talk about feelings but sometimes it`s hard and incomprehensible. I have some favourite monuments, enjoy to find another. Love to laugh! Sometimes I can be shy. Most of the time I`m open-minded :) I like to listen music in headphones. When I`m hungry or when it`s cold for me I stop to talk or become angry :( Recommend Polish Woodstock Festival! I never give homeless people money, but sometimes I buy them food.
I wonder to became a therapist in the future.

I love to travel, cause I feel freedom during it :) I really like to feel freedom! Most of the time I travel by hitchhiking, love this!

My philosophy: People need other people to be happy. It`s worth to have new experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like book " Meditations" of Marcus Aurelius.
I feel a lot of big emotions when reading short stories of Chekhov.
The amazing book I can recommend to you is a " The Reader" by Schlink. There is also a movie.
My all childhood I was fascinated by Harry Potter. Love it still! But don`t read anymore ; )

Movies: the most strong movie I have ever watched is " Room" by Lenny Abrahamson.
Also a greek " Kynodontas" ( Dogtooth). I like psychological movies, war movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time me and my friends from university group have conducted psychological training for prisoners of one of the Polish prisons (of strict regime) who had committed murder. It was really important experience.

I`ve visited real Odessa`s (Ukraine) catacombs with our hosts. It was unbelievable experience to walk in this dark, full of water, sand and stones and full of corridors place under the ground. It was the best CS experience for me!

Me and my friend have started to run through the bridge in Sankt Petersburg (Russia) when it started to be opened. We had to jump over the already separated parts of the bridge. It was an adrenaline!

I`ve started my hitchhiking trip from Warsaw (Poland) to Lviv (Ukraine) when it was 7 hours to my train from Lviv to Kiev. It takes 6 hours to go there by one car from Warsaw to Lviv + waiting at the border. I managed it and even had a time to eat supper before the train! :)

I`ve jumped with parachute and bungee.
