ABOUT ME
Originally from Poland, I have lived abroad for 19 years now and feel as if there is time to go back to my roots. Perhpas they are in Poland, perhaps they are within me, but the truth is I am still looking for a place where I feel myself.
I work as a sustainability strategist and all my passion and frustration is to do with achieving (or not being able to) a fair world.
To change that, I volunteer, help others, and try to stay sane,
PHILOSOPHY
smile it live it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! follow your instincts and you will not regret a moment in your life! cliche? i would say it is very difficult to stick to your beliefs in this confusing world. but do not give up!! just listen yourself and those who wish you good! ohh and remember if ur stuck just drop everything and start from basics!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I spread the good word about couch surfers! when I hear about coach surfing the first thing that comes to my mind is people! very ,very open-minded!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have met couch surfers! they were friends of my friends.. but in fairness, I have been couch surfing all my life without realising it! always staying over in some people's house, always letting others to stay in my place. if i only knew that it has a name! I thought it meant friendship!!!!!:)
I have been active many moons ago, but for personal reasons, ever since I have moved to the UK from the Republic of Ireland. I was unable to host anyone or stay with anyone. I hope I can change that.
Interests
My mind is consumed by sustainability and all things related to sustainable living. Because this has been my studies, my work and my life I find it hard to separate.
I love reading books, and my library keeps growing and yet when it comes to choosing a new book, I reach for something about climate change!
Food, tasting new foods!
And...working on community projects! renovating spaces, gardening, and clearing !
Running... in fairness....I need to get back to it!
- sustainability
- climate justice
- climate action
Music, Movies, and Books
Books. My grandma only once read me a book, so I was always into them when I was a child. I had this need to see another world and live in it for a moment! And then I had to read another one,and another. For the last few years, I have been reading most academic books, so when I get a chance to read fiction it is a treat! I recommend Girl, Other, Woman; Handmeiden's Tale, The Heart Goes Last, Exit West and many more.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I took part in Spencer Tunick's installation in Dublin. That was something! Cold, rain, 3000 people laughing, cheering, and waving! Definitely crazy.
