    Travelling

  • Description

    Hi there! I am Kinga. I come from Poland, but moved to the UK back in 2011 and pretty much have been living there since. "Pretty much" because in the meantime (in 2019) I lived and worked in Vietnam, where I tought English to a bunch of nasty (hahaha, I loved almost all of them) kids. Before moving to London I briefly lived in Yemen, where I travelled to as a student of Arabic language. So, I am not gonna be unique by saying that I love to travel. But not the ordinary way. As going somewhere for a week or two to hastly see the most of what is there to be seen or for a lazy all inclusive. I like living in the places I visit, meet people (locals especially), observe them, learn from them, try food, get frustrated because of cultural differences, learn form that even more and really feel and be.

    More details about my language interests
    I am an English teacher so I can and like teaching English. Also, as I used to study Arabic I would love to improve it so I can communicate as confidently as I can in English or Polish. Finally, I have a hidden passion for Spanish. I only self-taught myself this language but I believe I can get by using it. So again, I would love to imporve my Spanish.

  • More details about your skills

    I mostly worked in hospitality in bars and restaurants across London as a waitress, but mainly as a bartender. And although I have never been a chef I cook quite frequently mostly for myself but also for my friends every now and then. I also have some experience (and qualifications) to teach English as a foreign language. Itought nearly all levels and all ages. As a teacher I am use games as a teaching tool where students interact and compete with one another. Beside from that I love writing. I studied journalism and am passionate abuot world news and like to comment on them and sometimes laught it all off as a healthy way to deal with all the sh*t that is going on. And finally, ever since I was a kid I loved animals. I had two dogs, a cat, parrots, fish, hamsters and took care of all the wild creatures I could humanly find and in need of care.
