Wiola Kowalczyk Foi escrito há 13 anos

Hi!

My name is Wiola (Wioletta) Kowalczyk, I'm nearly 22 years old and I'm from Warsaw in Poland.

I'm a third-year student of Mediterranean Studies (majors: Spain and Greece) at The Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies "Artes Liberales", the part of University of Warsaw. What's more, I'm realizing additional program - English Philology at Centre for Foreign Language Teacher Training and European Education, where I'm at 1st year.

From time to time, when I have more free time, I work as secretary, touristic guide, hostess or give English, Spanish or Latin private lessons. I can speak also Greek, but I'm no good at this language.

I'm deeply interested in, a-bove all, Al-Andalus, and further: history and culture of Mediterranean area, especially Spain and Greece, languages, comparative grammar and comparative histories of civilizations. About my academic experience and interests you can read on http://uw.academia.edu/WiolettaKowalczyk

Of course, I have also normal hobbies ;) I love music (check my music taste: http://www.lastfm.pl/user/Velmyle) and film. I'm a great fan of fantasy literature and all that 'funny' RPG-nerd-geek culture ;) I'm an admirer of Martin's "Song of Ice and Fire" saga. Construction of Westeros as a fictional world is a fascinating masterpiece for me. I've danced bellydance for half a year, but I know some steps for salsa, dancehall, quickstep, chacha, waltz, tango, etc. I like dancing, awesome parties with my friends, and lazy days at the seaside ;)

I'm very friendly entertaining and open-minded person. You can find me on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000681147130&ref=ts#!/wiola.kowalczyk ;)

This year at October I'm going to study history at University of Granada. :)

I'm looking forward to meeting you, dear Erasmus Students 2011/20012! First here, next in Granada! ;)

Hey,
I'm looking to stay with either a group of girls or with a family during my erasmus year in Granada. I'm a second year undergraduate student at the moment studying spanish and english in England (which is where I'm from). I enjoy socialising and am a hard worker when it comes to studying. I have to say I love reading fiction, learning languages (which I do sometimes in my free time) and I love going to the cinema and visiting historical and cultural places... so I'm definitely looking forward to spending a year in Granada!
Also, I'm trying to find accomodation in the albaicin or el centro so if anyone can give me some idea of where i could start looking, that would be amazing! Oh, I'll be studying in la facultad de filología y letras.
Look forward to meeting you soon!

Tamara Jokic Foi escrito há 13 anos

Hello everybody!

My name is Tamara, I come from Serbia and by the time we arrive in Granada I will be 21.
Right now I am a sophomore student of Iberian Studies at the University of Belgrade, Serbia. So, I will spend my fifth semester at the Facultad de Letras. I study Spanish and Portuguese, Literature and Culture.
So, what could I say... I adore foreign languages. Besides the ones I study, I really enjoy English as well. I really like singing, and my favourite kind of music is Fado, which mainly consists of Portuguese national tunes. I also play the guitar (lately... I am not as skillful as I used to be :)) I have also sung some Spanish classics during my high school period, so if there is anyone else interested in music, we can arrange some singing-dancing-music events while we hang out in Granada.
As for sports, I am fond of skiing.
I consider myself a sociable and open-minded person, as well as a bit party maniac.
I really enjoy going out with my friends until late. 3:)

I hope we will have a wonderful time!

my email: [email protected]

See you in a few months! :)

Hi there!!

I write because maybe as well as enjoy Granada you want to enjoy the near mountain with the snow.  If you want to go to Sierra Nevada with a 20% discount you can get it with Agua de Lanjarón, the mineral water from Granada.

You'll find pin codes in the labels of the bottles and you need 10 for getting it. But if you go to their Facebook page you can find some pin codes for free. I write you the link just in case you want to try:
