I was born and grew up in eastern Poland but I've always liked travelling. In the age of 15 I decided to leave normal school and I became a self-taught learner. I'd been sailing since I was nine-years-old and for a few years I worked on tall ships as a boatswain.
I'd opened up a café once, but then I went bankrupt on it so I ran away back to the sea [:-P] to make a research on traditional boatbuilding in the Caribbean and now I'm trying to write a book on the topic. I also study persian philology in Krakow, doing some traditional carpentry in the meantime.
Easy-going, energetic and constantly looking for the new things to learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think my answer is not very original nor relevatory: I believe CS gives us great opportunity to meet interesting people and to get to know other cultures and to share ours, and that it's wonderful solution for the low-cost travellers.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I breathed deep with the fresh air.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Plenty of interesting stories, that's for sure. I can share my sceptic approach to the world and all the ideas that go with it. I can also help with some home-repair stuff if necessary, I like it :-)
