About Me

ABOUT ME

Travelling and meeting people are the best things that can happen to me. Experiencing new challenges gives me the strength. There's always "more" to see, more to discover...
Even if sometimes I'm afraid of what's "new" these are the moments that makes me excited about life.

PHILOSOPHY

Still learning that HERE and NOW is what really matters.

We have no control of what happened and almost no influence of what will happen so the only way of living the life we want is to use HERE and NOW.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got to know about CS from my friend. In 2012 I met many wonderful CS people during our trip to Balkans, so I decided to join in.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One trip to Balkans - 2012 makes me realize that CS is absolutely an amazing idea. And that it's about "spirit" not saving money on accomodation!
During 3 weeks' trip I met so many amazing people and I fell in love with this kind of travelling spirit when you jump into the certain culture straightaway, when sometimes it took so much time during "classic" way of travelling.

Interests

Personally I love playing and listening to music, travelling, hiking, riding bicycles, motorbikes, spending time with my friends, going to the cinema, theatre, horseriding, martial arts and many more...

Music, Movies, and Books

I like good music, good cinema and good books. Good to me, of course.
Too many to list. Just to mention few:

music - latin jazz (eg. Michel Camilo), afro (eg. Mamady Keita), jazz,(eg. Dave Brubeck), ethno, folk, balkan, klezmer (eg. Kroke) and many more.

MOVIES - Tarantino, Jarmush, Polanski, Woody Allen and many more...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to choose one.
So many amazing landscapes, sunrises, live music events, friends meetings, theatre plays etc...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer a tour around the place where I live, showing the "real" south-eastern Poland, which, I personally think, is the most "Polish Poland" ever.

I have a garage and my own motorbike so motorbikers with their machines welcome as well.

I can teach some African and Cuban drumming. If you are a musician you are more than welcome to bring your instrument and we can jam together.

I have few bicycles to use. We can go for karate training or horse riding as well.
