  • Description

    Hi! Glad to see you reading this!

    My name is Mikołaj. I am an open minded person and have always sought to broaden my knowledge, experience and mindfulness. I consider myself hard-working and creative, so I am sure I am going to be a valuable worker for any host. The things that drive me the most are: music, as I always find peace in a creation of a harmony of sounds, therefore I admire both listening to and creating music; languages, for they are a tool of absolute understanding of our world and serve as an extension of our consciousness; and travels... exactly for the same reason. Speaking of travelling, I do that with the love of my life, so I am only looking for hosts, who are able to provide work for two of us. She is a wonderful and energetic person, whose knowledge and abillities amaze me to this day, despite of our long relationship.

    We both respect other people, as well as their possesion, abilities, disabilities, emotions and opinions, so I am sure we will get along. We live in Krakow, where I studied Far East and Eurasian Studies, while Ewa studied art history and tourism. She spent most of her free time on various festivals and exhibitions, she took an active part in the organization of such events and also worked in museums, Promotion of events cultural meetings with artists.

    Ewa: As a person who loves art, I needed to travel around Europe. but after leaving for an internship at an association in Porto, I understood that the best way to get to know a given place is to join the local community and discover the charms of the place. I love swimming, but not necessarily the temperature of the ocean. Since I was a child, I was fascinated by the culture of Japan. I like to organize things, meet people and implement the craziest ideas as long as they are reasonable. Despite the lack of superhero strength, I always find a way to complete the tasks assigned to me.

    Take care, I hope we will prove all we wrote in this little note when we meet!

  • More details about your skills

    We have broad experience in gardening, household renovations, elderly companionship as well as cooking (mostly vegan/vegetarian), sales and bartending. We also like art, and would love to help with various art projects, but out of two of us only Ewa is educated in this regard. I (Nicolas) worked as a house painter in England, where I was also responsible for other tasks like wall sanding, floor skirting cutting and assembling and other things. I also helped my father finishing my flat from scratch, so I know a bit. I also frequently help my grandparents, who, due to their faulty physique, find it hard to conduct everyday duties on their own. We both worked as bartenders, so we know how to work under stress and how to manage our time efficiently. We both eat (almost) exclusively vegan / vegetarian cusine (and I am the sinner here), we usually cook the dishes ourselves so cooking is also not a problem for us. We also have some experience in teaching.
