Ewa Swiatko

 

Age: 25 | Height: 5’7″ | Montreal, QC

 

Energetic, approachable and friendly are only a few words to describe the kind of person Ewa is. She is always looking to help others and cares about their wellbeing, sometimes even more than her own.

Her love for travel enabled her move to Eastern Europe as a teenager where she was then given the opportunity to experience a different culture and life.

She received her degree in Geography, then moved back to Canada and graduated in Hospitality and Tourism Marketing. She wishes to continue her studies at Concordia University pursuing Communication Studies to one day host her own travel television show.

She has an incredible amount of passion for extreme sports and loves to live life “on the edge”. One of her favourite’s is to skydive and is now planning on becoming a certified solo jumper this year to show others that we can achieve anything we want to.

Other hobbies of hers include, dancing, singing, reading and most importantly spending as much time as possible with her family.

Ewa feels she is truly blessed to be in the MUC pageant. She hopes it will give her the opportunity to be more involved in humanitarian organizations, through which she can then be of help to less fortunate people. Ewa believes that we all deserve a chance in pursuing our dreams.

What would be your “dream job” in life?

As I love to entertain and travel, hosting my own television show would be my dream job. Through this I could travel and learn about other traditions, cultures and people. I feel the world is a learning tool and would hope to gain knowledge to then share it with the people that may never get this opportunity to do and see all that I would have. I believe traveling helps us reflect on the things we have rather than the things we are lacking.

List any interesting or unusual jobs you may have had.

During college, when I was  living in Europe, my best friend and I saw a business opportunity to become a mime in the busy city center. As you may not know, this is extremely popular in the city I lived in at the time. With that being said, we decided to mime for the many spectators that were walking by and would stop and look at us.

Where is the most interesting place you have been?

One of my passions in life is mountain climbing so living in Europe, my father and I would often venture out to go hiking where it would take us hours to reach the top of the mountain peak. There was one specific time when we reached the top, exhausted, we sat next to each other in silence and admired the picturesque view in front of us. Between the endless mountains lay a beautiful hidden lake called “The Sea’s Eye”. Its stillness, serenity was so breathtaking that I can never forget it. It truly felt like I was on top of the world.

What is your philosophy of/in life?

My philosophy on life is to simply be able to enjoy it to the fullest, which means excelling in the areas that bring the simplest joy to my life. I am a strong believer that in order to see the sun and embrace it’s warmth we must first surpass the rainy seasons in life. The key is to always stay positive and make the right choices by following your heart.
