Open minded, spontanious, relaxed, young and honest, ready to have fun and get to know people! I love to laugh and i try to travel as much as i can. I want learn how to surf on Bali. I did Skydiving in Taupo the first time in my life the best feeling I ever felt, it was just amazing.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life and be happy! Enjoy every second of your life even if you sit in the chair and read a book but do it because u like it and not beacause someone told you like at school!
Try to see the whole world even if you don't have much money (like me 2009/11).Use your time on this planet with doing great things, don't hestitate to do something because of any reason just do it and don't think about it too much! I did it and I will do it again and again. I am young, fit and open........ just do it, do it.... one of my mottos! I love these words! Live your dreams. My friend just told me and didnt wish me that one thing anymore, because i live it anyway, MY DREAM!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never made a CS experience through that page till i got to New Zealand. The first time I actually couchsurfed was october 2008 in Boston as my mate and me missed our bus and tried to sleep on the street we met a Boston guy and asked him if we can crash on his couch. He said no worries and we spend the night at his place. We had a great night, met a cool Boston guy and spend the next day together. It was nice and i enjoyed the time. That is the reason why i am here. The connection to the people is very important for me. The language and the different cultures. I left after 1 year Australia behind me and travel now for the next months through Asia until July 2011. The reason I travel untill that time is because i have to be on my cousins wedding in Ausgust in Poland. If that weren't, I would travel longer! I hope to see as much as I can. Meet many Couchsurfers and -hosts. I travel on a very low budget but that makes it even more interesting.
After I returned of 21 months of traveling I started a job on Lanzarote in Spain fell in love and stayed. Now I live on this beautiful Island and became spanish resident. In 2013 I plan to travel with my love through South America to visit some other friends on the other side of the world. I am really looking forward to do it. So far my travels are more on weekends or on days when we both are off for a few days. Well the South America didnt really work becasue we moved to Madrid! Well maybe another time! lol one day I tunr 50 and still didnt do it but no it will happen!

The actual stuff 2016

Now after and my ex are not together anymore I made it to south America. So my dream came true. I'm looking forward to experience a me adventure again.

Interests

I am intersted in everything. I like to experience new things but i really like to be in company. I was bungee jumping and I will do it again. I did skydiving and I will do it again. There are plenty of things I haven't done yet but I will. I started playing POI and learn how to massage, study spansih and a few other things. What I really want is to fly oneday by my own.
I like to read books and listen to good music and I hate the bloody Moskitos and Flies in OZ and Asia! I also hate it when people sit at the table with their best friend Mr. laptop while we all are eating, this is such a NoGo!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies, music, friends, Parties all over the world, love beer and wine, long chats, Durak a russian Cards game, Skip Bo another card game, cooking, after I travelled that long i want try to cook all the dishes i ate, lying on the beach, staring at the mountains, enjoying the streetvibe from a cafe, dancing to Danca Kuduro, getting nuts in Stepdance, playing my Didgeridoo, well I try to, skyping etc.
I want to be Bella at Twilight and a fight club member and be the real friend of Edward Norton;)
Home Alone 1 + 2, and The never ending story and Polar Express are the movies I love!

Teach, Learn, Share

To share is one of the most important things in our lives. Do not be selfish! Stop from time to time to take a hitch-hiker with you and give him a ride. Offer him a banana or a cookie. Share experiences even if it's just for a moment! Donate money to poor people, be kind and polite, respect everyone, because you want to be respected as well. Shake the hand of a homeless guy if he reach out to you. I love to share because that makes me happy but even more the other ones!
