Description

Hi everyone,

I'm Paulina, originally from Poland, but I've spent a significant part of my life living abroad, including in the UK, Spain, France, Mexico, and the USA.

I'm extroverted, curious, and adventurous, and this curiosity has led me to move across different countries in search of new insights and experiences. I love connecting with people from different cultures and learning through mutual exchange.

I spent five years living and working in a backpackers' hostel in Scotland, sharing a room with seven other residents and meeting people from every corner of the globe. This experience gave me a strong sense of community and shared space, broadened my perspective, and allowed me to see the world in a bigger picture.

I'm a great nature lover and I'm spending most of my free time outdoors, either cycling or climbing the mountains. Mountains are my happy place—a place where I'm fully connected to the moment, and where nothing else matters. Can life get any simpler or more perfect than that?

I love hiking, scrambling, rock climbing, and I'm generally up for any outdoor activity where I can surround myself with a beautiful scenery.

I'm currently working in an office environment, surrounded by industrial sites of the relatively big city and it's needles to say that I feel like a square peg in a round hole 😉

This is why I've decided to change my environment and spend a summer season working in a location surrounded by mountains and nature. I'd love to find an employment in an outdoor tourist destination, where I could combine my experience and passion for customer service and hospitality, with my love for the mountains and outdoors.

Working with people of different nationalities brings me great joy. As a traveller myself, I love giving back by providing the same level of excellent service I’ve received while away from home.

I know from experience that the people you meet along the way—whether it's the person serving your morning coffee or helping at a local supermarket—can completely shape how you perceive a destination and your travel experience as a whole. By travelers, for travelers 😊
