CURRENT MISSION

I've found the key to universal harmony! Presently I'm busy looking for the keyhole...

ABOUT ME

I used to think of myself as a musician. And even though other titles might be used as well, I've been realizing lately that I should never NOT think of me that way again.
I also tend to get personal when it comes to truth. (Ask a long line of former bosses, etc.) Ironically, I do so, because I believe Truth is not personal, but universal. Seeing it (or not) is of course, always, a personal choice.
I never studied cooking, but I'm afraid (somehow most people aren't...) it will always remain an inalienable part of my everyday life.
I hate sentences (or entire paragraphs) starting with "I".
So I stop right here.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an open book.
A thick one, but nonetheless open.

I believe that any action, word or thought we choose to have must be replicable in front of anyone at any time and at almost any cost. Not only is it right, but it makes life so much more enjoyable and, frankly, easier. Truth is one and it's available for free to anyone.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Enormously gratifying!
Met fantastic people (both hosts and other co-surfers) and I do believe couch-surfing overrides any other communication (etc.) "revolutions" of recent years. Facebook, Twitter and the like must really bow to the miracle that CS-ing is! Bringing humanity back to its roots, undivided by unnecessary opportunities to avoid it in the interest of technology (ok, CS.org notwithstanding...)

Big thank you to those who believe in the idea and uphold its ways! Yes, there are many who are in it for the wrong reasons, but I think the system has its own ways to fix that.

Zainteresowania

The short answer is "too many".
Submitting the long answer will perhaps clog The Internet for a moment or two.
If I must compromise, then I should say:

any process of creation, be it art or not
human interaction
art as an experience (and only THEN as a product/process)
languages
the process of aging
cooking
balancing inner and outer peace
prejudices / profiling
truth
woody allen
frisbee
magic (not circus magic, but the real "tangible" one...)
conversations as a living process (meaning, having its own free will, etc.)
understanding the essence of evil and whether it really exists as an original force in the first place or not
humor and almost everything about it
anything sea related
backgammon
minimalism (not as art, but as in giving up stuff you don't need. ok, also as art.)

Ô±Õ½Õ¿Õ¸Ö‚Õ¡Õ®Õ¡Õ·Õ¸Ö‚Õ¶Õ¹

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Flew a plane once (OK, not alone. My copilot was a veteran from the 1967 war in Palestine/Israel)

Sleeping in my car for a month. (the same car I drove from NYC to Moscow, Russia with.)

Utah.

Breaking up (and breaking down...) on my birthday trip to Jerusalem.

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

Well, as it happens I am a teacher, so I tend to be sensitive to those moments in life in which learning could be taking place. And I enjoy participating on either side of the "fence". Religiously so.

Particular skills I can readily contribute (and love doing so):

music (both teaching and performing)
languages (this is just endless, but really I'd like to learn more Arabic, improve my Greek, and of course teach any of the languages I use freely and also delve into linguistics...nerdy, i know)
cooking (like everything else - there are rules, particular traditions and then there is braking them...)
challenging prejudices (including the challenge of rejecting the commonly American notion that they are all bad and must be abhorred)
