CURRENT MISSION

"He who doesn't risk never gets to drink champagne."

ABOUT ME

I love being in motion and changing place that I stay.
It's always adventure! I love hanging out with others, discuss about everything and nothing, going out in the night and coming home after sunrise.

I love discovering new places and meeting new people. There is easily visible correlation - more friends, more crazy and amazing things happen in my life!

PHILOSOPHY

Each time when you face the fear or you're afraid of doing sth, just do it, dare yourself to do it - it's the only way to become better person and finally... feel happy!

"One love to give, one life to live, I'm gon' give it on!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's a great opportunity to meet many valuable, interesting and open-minded personalities from all over the world. I want to be a part of this project, I want to CouchSurf and host people if it's only possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a plenty of people at my place in Lisbon, Portugal, Poznan, Poland and The Hague, the Netherlands.

I've already CouchSurfed many places, including: Madrid, La Laguna in Tenerife, Eindhoven, Belgrade and in Porto. All of these experiences were totally different, but at the same the had one thing in common - I REALLY ENJOYED THEM.

I've met a plenty of fantastic people this way and still wanna some more!
