About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live a life changing a place monthly. Be a digital nomad.

ABOUT ME

Open-minded, tolerant, polite, genuine, sociable person. I want to explore the world and visit new places as much as it's possible. But the key is to travel qualitatively, not quantitatively.

Absorb everything! Surroundings, people, situations. Take life and happiness as much as we can. Delight in the beauty of nature, observe little wonders and human faces.

I am also a travel blogger cause I want to inspire people to immerse themself in a world, nature and to travel in a non-standard way. (https://podrozewnaturze.pl)

PHILOSOPHY

cosmopolitanism
respect animal rights
be eco, save the Earth
travelling, exploring the world and deep understanding is a homage to the Earth

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The idea of CS - incredible.

I wish to meet new, fascinating people from all over the world. Everyone has different experience, other world-view and awareness. It's defined by the place of living, mobility, culture etc. Every acquaintance makes our life richer, so just do it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Felt into the Grande Canale in Venezia by the accident. But it was funny for many people. Especially for these in gondolas.
Hitchhike expedition through Europe from Warsaw to the edge of Spain with many stops in incredible places (cuddling the monkey in Gibraltar and being bitten by hungry monkey :D).
To see a scenery strikingly similar to 'The Old Man and the See' on Aegean Sea: old fisherman casting a net for fishing on modest boat at sunrise. Touching.
Dangerous and picturesque motorbike Ha Giang loop in northern Vietnam - solo, with any motorbike skills.
Adopting cats. (Please, don't buy - adopt!).

There are so many awesome moments, things, people and miracles of nature! I experienced a lot and gonna discover more.

Teach, Learn, Share

Every person know something what I don't know. Also I know something, what would be new for you.

Teach: blogging, digital marketing, public speeches, Oxford debates, international relations, startups, management, Eastern studies, holistically: Ukraine, Russia, Poland (politics, economics, history, cuisine, culture, languages), lifestyle minimalism.

Learn: Ace up your sleeve :) I am open for absorbing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My energy, peace and some delicacies, gift from Poland :)
Sharing experiences. Rich, professional knowledge from different areas.
And in the future - accommodation and fun in Warsaw and showing you the great summertime atmosphere on Vistula's River beaches and barges.
