About Me

Hi!
I am a 19 years old girl from Poland. I live in a small city, Kielce, which is situated in one of the oldest mountains in Europe. You can tell it’s quite charming here.
I have just graduated from high school and right now I am applying for the Medical University. I am a big fan of science, especially biology and astronomy. I have always been a kind of an artist. I draw, paint, play instruments and sing (when no one’s around). I play electric guitar and drums. My biggest inspiration is Jack White and his crazy guitar solos. If you want to get rid of me, take me to the museum. I can stay there for hours, just staring at the details of paintings. I am always fascinated with expressionists’ and impressionists’ artworks, such as Van Gogh or Monet.
Though I am a cat lady, I have a small dog, she’s a lovely little buttercup. I also love horse riding, so if you ever come to visit me we can go to the horse stable, which is situated 15 minutes from my house. I also have bikes, so we can ride around the city.
I really enjoy music festivals and gigs. There is literally nothing better than standing in front of your favourite musician and listening to art he's making.
I have visited many countries, but my favourite so far is Iceland. I went there as a volunteer and I fell in love with this place. I always dremt about going there and thanks to SEEDS, I finally did. It's a land where you never get homesick, no matter how long you are staying. It's just incredible. I hope to go back there during winter or next summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got on a boat and saw some whales!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach polish, how to play guitar and draw. I will be happy to take my guests on a journey through the city and one of the oldest mountains in Europe - Świętokrzyskie Mountains - right where I live. We can visit Kraków or Warsaw, it's quite close from my home town!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you polish tongue twisters, aka the hardest thing in the world. I like to cook, so if you'd like to try some polish cuisines, I'll be more than happy to prepare something for you. Also, you can expect a little gift from me as a thank you for letting me stay.
