Description

Hello everyone!

My name is Arianna (Aria for short) and I come from a Polish village near Warsaw. My lifelong passions are foreign languages and animals, especially horses. One has led me to studying Japanese studies at University of Warsaw, the other to studying zoopsychology with animal assisted therapy at University of Siedlce.

I have always believed the world is waiting for me and I cannot stay in Poland my whole life. Once I turned 18 I started dreaming of traveling abroad. The journey that changed my life was an excursion to Japan in 2023. I become overjoyed as soon as I start remembering it and I hope to go back there many times more.

When I was at University of Warsaw, I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Japanese culture, religion and society. I am however aware, that studying from literature is merely scratching the surface, so I want to submerge myself in Japan and Japanese lifestyle, experience and see with my own eyes as much as possible.

As for my job, I became a foreign language tutor in 2019. I started with teaching beginner Japanese, later to be joined by all levels of English. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with others and every success of my students is a source of great satisfaction. During my current university course, I have also discovered that I feel similarly about holding activities with people in need. I want to spend my life helping others achieving their goals, whether it's learning a new language, becoming a better version of themself or overcoming a disability.

I want to learn, meet new people and gain experiences different from what has been surrounding me for my whole life. I can't wait for what the future has in store for me!
