Description
I'm a 48 year old mature soul taking an Eat, Pray, Love kind of a year - a leap year of sorts:)....I'm Polish/Canadian by passport, a citizen of the world at heart. Currently a digital nomad looking for that place to call home. Europe has always been my love and so here I am. A hard-working, open-minded, organized creative soul on a journey of exploration. Unattached, freedom loving. I love creating inviting home spaces. I can purge and organize for hours on end without getting tired. In love with repurposing old junk, decorating spaces, art, art history, history and above else nature. Gardening bring it on. Seeing flowers or veggies grow is the ultimate joy. I absolutely cannot live without access to large bodies of water & nature. Travelling is what sustains my soul - people, culture, local art & history. My purpose in life - inspire people to go after their dreams and hopes! This I currently do in my coaching:)

What else ...
A humanist at heart. Got my BA in History in Canada and my MA in American Studies in Poland. Funny that:) A certified burnout coach, TEFL teacher and a diploma in business administration.
Born in Poland, raised in Canada, I've been between the 2 countries since my 20s. Worked in the UK way before Brexit in a summer school environment so got to see all of the sites with my pupils on weekend excursions. I so enjoyed being the tour guide for the kids - they still remember me :)...travelled to France, the UK (all over), Spain (northern + Fuerteventura, Barcelona), New England (Nantucket Island, Maine, Boston, New York, Princetown)..Mexico, Jamaica. I'm probably forgetting a few places but I'm not done just yet. Still a lot of places on my bucket list:) Love meeting new people, engaging with new cultures and cuisine and most of all discovering something new about myself with each experience.
Program Facilitator at DareArts in Toronto & Events Facilitator at fundica.com in Toronto. Kids and funding schemes for start-ups.
Super Mary Poppins for a lot of my friends' kids and nephews. Purger and organizer at more homes than I can remember. I love transforming places and spaces into organized, clean, efficient, cosy and aesthetic homes.
