About Me

Since a while I'm learning new job: being mum :) so now it's my main activity.

Animals: One day I would love to have pets at my home again. At my parents place we have 2 dogs, 2 cats, rabbits, and I had also guinea pigs, hamsters and degus :)

NO SMOKE: I smoked for few months while studing, but not anymore and I'm happy with it.

FOOD: Together with my husband we are food lovers, and we love to cook together and from time to time make new culinary experiments, when we have enough time.

PHILOSOPHY

"Me, We" by Muhammad Ali

Discover myself with the help of the other precious beings, giving and receiving = sharing

Happiness - the only one thing, which multiples while you share

Interests

In my free time I like knitting, dancing, juggling (all the time beginner, I'd need more time everyday to improve and progress), being in the nature and breathing fresh air. Variety of sports (amateur) except jogging (too boring for me unfortunately) hiking, biking, swimming, volleyball, tennis, nowadays a fascinated beginner in Capoeira and modern dance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got married!!!!!!!!!! :) [11.02.2011, Germany]

I'm afraid of deep water, but I've jumped into a mountain stream from a rock cliff (about 4 meters high). For me it was really something [July 2007, Italy]

My first and so far the only one climbing experience at Pão de Açúcar, [May 2011, Rio de Janeiro]

First time in my life below/behind/under the waterfall. For the first time it's really amazing feeling, you are so happy you would like to scream, but water still goes to your eyes and mouth.... and when you already get used to, you wish to stay there forever, but the strong current flow just kicks you out :) ....ach! great, otimo! bacana! juuhuuu! [October 2011, Brazil]

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH:
I can teach you how to knitt and start to juggle ;) how to prepare Polish food, e.g.: bigos, żurek etc. for pierogi you need a whole day;)

Polish - Anyone interested? :)
English - I can help beginners
German (B2/C1) - I would like to talk and proof my German ;) so all corrections are appreciated
Spanish - Studing for one year (in 2006) and not practising since then, so the best would be to hang out with natives ;)
Portuguese / I lived in Brasil (BH/MG) for 6 months so I've learned a bit to comunicate with locals and then felt in love with Portuguese :D

LEARN:
+ dutch (to better comunicate with locals)
+ dancing (more professional then only my improvisation steps) and then to become a teacher-choreographer (one of my dreams)
+ using a sewing machine ( so far I can use it basically but I want to create my own things
+ jogar capoeira angola

SHARE:
with all my material things, memories, knowledge, energy ,.:*^'"\;,.~"'^*+:.>
