It all started with... "Lambada"! (click on the link underneath this text if you fancy listening to this cool and dancey tune!)

I recall well playfully dancing to that 80's hit as a little girl and happily learning its lyrics by heart – without understanding it or even knowing what language that was!

What happened later was a natural development and progression of my genuine passion for languages: winning language competitions (primary school), working as a private language tutor (secondary school), linguistic studies with Erasmus exchange in Belgium (in Brussels and Leuven) and all that crowned with my Masters in Romance Languages (French and Italian, specialty: linguistics) from the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. I've also been enjoying travels to various destinations to practice the languages mastered already (English, French, Flemish/Dutch). 

And finally, long-term living in London - the world's supreme melting pot of a variety of cultures - is a perfect way to practice my languages and truly LIVE the reality of multilingualism!
