ABOUT ME

I’m a friendly and open-minded guy in search of his place in the world. After spending a few years studying in England I moved down to Brighton where I work as a 3D Artist now. Initially I focused on my work but now I am figuring out what's important in life.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is 10% of what happens to you, and 90% of how you respond to it"

Quite often we end up grieving over unused chances rather than over the things we've actually did. So try things even if they seem stupid, fall badly, learn and stand up again. If you avoid falling, you avoid winning and learning as a whole. Never regret; you may find strength where you least expect it to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me it's been a life-changing event that happened back in 2012. Made me see people in a new light, trust in unconditional kindness and kept charging my batteries ever since!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked from Poland to England and parts between Hungary and Turkey. I climbed inside an old slate mine in Wales. Saw northern lights at their best.

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope to share my stories with you and get inspired by yours! I look forward to learning something new that you find fascinating.

I might show you some 3ds Max basics if you're into that sort of thing, show you some beginner moves in tennis or talk about hitchhiking if you're feeling adventurous!
