About Me

I'm a very cheerful person. My workmates are always telling me that my good mood affects them and cheer them up. I don't have any problems with striking up a conversation, because I'm very open and talkative. I love meeting new people and making new friends and hear their stories and their experiences. I think that I'm a good listener.

I live in the center of Wielkopolski National Park. This is a great place to ride a bike and spend some time with nature far away from city rush, crowd and stress but also away from city pollution.

I study physiotherapy at Poznan University of Medical Science. I've got my Bechelor Degree in 2015 and now I'm doing my Masters Degree. My speciality is pediatric neurology and in the future I would like to work with newborns.

I'm a volonteer and work with children right now. This experience makes me understanding, calm and profesional, also teaches me how to deal with various people and how to talk with them, and how to deal with my own stress.

I'm condating a research about gait in children with cerebral palsy at my University.

I avoid situations when voices are raised. I don't like when people are late so I'm always trying to be a few minutes earlier.

I work as a waitress in a hotel restaurant as my part-time job. Is one of the easiest way to earn some money and study at the same time in Poland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great opportunity to meet new people, share experiences, learn about foreign country traditions, cuisine, local special places and sightsee from local point of view.

Interests

Traveling and natural beauty - this is a great oportunity to see a lot of interesting and beautiful places. I'm always trying to see not only major atrraction but also wild or true part of every country I went to and see how people's daily living looks like. I had opportunity to travel in Europe, United Stace and piece of Africa and Carabeean Islands, but my biggest dream is trip to Asia or one more visit in America.

Yoga - I have been doing yoga for about a year now and I want to be a yoga instrustor in the future. Yoga helps me relax, it is great for spine and muscle tension. It makes your body flexible ans teach how to makes everyday stress go away.

Cooking and foreign cuisine - I'm trying to cook healthy and delicious. My best chef is Jamie Oliver and I have a lot of books with his recepies. I'm a food traveler - I'm always looking for the best local restaurants to try their specials.

Pediatric neurology, neuroanatomy - human brain is really interesing. While I'm wolking with children I see that their brain is really flexible and that sometimes I can achive impossible with proper rehabilitation.

Also interesting it : music and movies.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - mainly jazz, folk, rock, pop - used to play guitar and piano, but I'm still love music very much and can't imagine day without it. Music gives me outside energy and indside calmness at the same time. Love Ed Sheeran, Michael Buble, Coldplay, Maroon 5 and Muse.

Books - who-done-it books (Nesbo), mystery novels (Agatha Christie), thrillers, non-fiction novels (e.g. amusing Stephen Clarke's books) but also fiction like Harry Potter or Sherlock Holmes.

Movies - huge cinema admirerer - trying to see most of the Oscar-nominee movies, love movies with twists in the end and these which make you think and you try to solve the mystery - e.g. The Illusionist, Inception, The Prestige.

TV-series : The big bang theory, Sherlock
