About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to get my stuff done

ABOUT ME

I am a Pole but I have not stolen a single thing in my life. Not even a German car, duh! Neither do I wear socks with sandals.

I love Sweden but detest herring, monarchy and safe cars.

I am a geek but I prefer sports, dancing and talking to people to sitting in solitary confinment.

I am a designer but you would not see me dead in Ray-Bahn glasses or at the concert of some obnoxious band.

I am a teacher but I want to learn from you.

Looks like I am a walking failure in all walks of life.

PHILOSOPHY

"Rogozyn, why are you sitting here in the darkness" Quote from Dostoyevsky's "Idiot" - often mistranslated

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS restores my faith in humanity. There has not been a host or surfer whom I had not learned from something new. There has not been a time I could call lost or boring during my CS journeys.
