According to the Miss World Organisation, Karolina is currently studying for a Master’s Degree in Management and would like to continue her studies with a PhD. She also works as a model and hopes to become a motivational speaker one day. She enjoys swimming and scuba diving and playing tennis and badminton.
Her Beauty with a Purpose project, called Zupa Na Pietrynie, provides constant help to the homeless, raises awareness about this problem, and fights against social exclusion. Under this project, hot meals, food packages, drinks, clothing, masks, law advice and professional medical support are provided, every Sunday, to almost 300 people in need in Lodz, a city in Poland.
“Many of these people did not have access to register for a Covid-19 vaccine but the project was able to get Governmental permission for over 400 people to receive their vaccinations. The project also built the first Social Bathroom for people in the homelessness crisis in Lodz,” the Miss World page wrote.
