About Me

Hello :)

As a traveller adjusting to current situation I moved out from London where I graduated my PhD from biological sciences. I decided to hit the road on a motorbike and travelled solo through 10 countries. Literally on the way I received good news that I am an academic doctor now :). Now I just keep rolling to a warmer place where I can piecefully sit down and start to apply for jobs :).

I am fully vaccinated

I enjoy nature and camping but due to time of the year I looking for something warmer than just my tent.

I'm easy going, non smoking person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to interact with local people who know their area best. It allows me to get to know the culture, learn a few words of the regional language and find out where the best food is :) Holidays in a tourist resort are a torture. And there are so many adventures awaiting outside!

Interests

I love to explore and try novel things. I am attracted to food which I have never degustated and skills I have never had an opportunity to learn. Some of them I just try and leave and some I convert into my hobbies. Now I know more about motorbike touring than I ever wish to want :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music
Depends on my mood so it spams from Debussy or Saint Saens to Buena vista social club, to Night Wish, Haggard or Rhapsody of Fire.

Movies:
Documentary movies and among those Planet Earth with David Attenborough, who rocks!

TV series:
The Vikings are most thrilling.

Books:
My favourite is Shogun by James Clavell. I like this author as he travelled across Asia and wrote a number of novels spamming different historical periods.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many, not one :)

Took 2-week expedition on the North Pole, Svalbard.
Cycled from London to Paris on my own.
Hiked in Himalaya
Flew with a hot-air-balloon over MasaiMara.
Sailed across Atlantic ocean from Azores islands to Brest, France.

Teach, Learn, Share

Nope I won't bother you how vaccines work and give you full academic lecture. We are all tired by now :)

I like to learn from others. It doesn't have to be anything big. A little hiking or cooking advice, or how to look after gear in general. Very simple things turned out to be very useful.

I can share my adventures I went through during my journeys and experience I gained.
