About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To play professional golf and become a professional tri-lingual journalist

ABOUT ME

I am currently studying Information-Communication at Rennes Licence 2 (a branch of journalism). I love to golf competitively or recreationally so I encourage everyone to play golf some day. I love to play and watch all sports. I can speak 3 languages fluently: English, French, Polish. I have Polish heritage and Canadian influence. I am currently learning German step by step. I have a little kitten (b. June 15) called Mélodie. I am an avid traveller and have great enthusiasm to discover new places and meet new people and cultures. I love to party and socialize with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to interact with the world and travel to as many places as I possibly can to learn the different qualities of culture. Learning and speaking languages are the best way to meet new people and explore the world. Carpe diem and enjoy life there's only so much!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is a great experience to host, surf or meet good local people in the place of visit. I am currently hosting people and put my travels on hold for the moment. I believe in the concept to offer hospitality and good conversations amongst people who are interested and excited to discover the world. I encourage new people to try CS sometime.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have some CS experiences in US (particularly in Ohio) meeting people for coffee, surfing and discovering the concept. In France I have done the same and got the same happy and welcoming experience of being greeted with enthusiasm. I love the idea of CS and its a wonderful way to meet and explore the world of different surroundings and people.

Interests

Golf, basketball, or sports in general, women, travel to new places to discover new peoples, animals, fondue and raclette, steak and fries

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed to the top of the French Alps of the Mont Blanc and then skied all the way down.

The amazing thing I seen was taking a along the Mediterranean and seeing the beautiful beaches, coasts, towns, people, languages being spoken and the vividness in life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I learned a lot from my first experiences of CS and its not about just finding a place to stay. Its more about bonding and living life with people around you around the world so that you can experience and learn how different people interact. To find ways to get out of your groove and natural comfort and go out to communicate and share memories and life stories with CS surfer or learn from them. Its a fantastic way to learn and share numerous topics in life!
