About Me

CURRENT MISSION

exploring the world, meeting interesting people from all over the world !!!

ABOUT ME

Energetic, open-minded, hungry for new experience Polish girl who is addicted to travelling. I love laughing, hanging out with internationals, dancing, basically having fun and squeezing all the joy out of life. But anyways I enjoy a nice conversation paired up with a cup of exquisite tea as well :)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't be a tourist, be a traveller.

Sometimes the road ahead is paved with anything but good intentions.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's been 2 years since I found out about couchsurfing and I came to love the idea. Fair to say couchsurfing has completely changed my perception of what it means to travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Rome for the first time, it was absolutely awesome! I met a few fantastic people:) Then me and my sister used couchsurfing while doing interrail during summer holidays. We surfed the couch of 8 amazing people. Only positive experience! In warsaw I met up with couchsurfers, showed them around, went out for a drink etc. I also went couchsurfing in Andalucia and Portugal.
