About Me

I am a person who walks his own path of life. I generally have positive attitude towards life. I'm also a risk taker. From time to time I like to get shot of adrenaline and some degree of anxiety to wake myself up from every day routine. I always try to remember to be the best version of myself and to stay happy at the same time.

My philosophy is to treat others like I would like to be treated. Live my life and let other people live theirs. With respect and no harm.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because the idea of this website is just GREAT! I love it.

Interests

I have wide-ranging interests. And to be honest, I don't think it's very good. Recently I have tried to narrow it down to few things I like the most:

Psychology, sociology, human behavior.
Economy, business, entrepreneurship and everything related to money.
Filmmaking (more theory than practice but still)
Foods, nutrition, bit of cooking.

Apart of that I really enjoy doing things like:

Mountain hiking and climbing
Riding my bicycle like crazy.
Freediving
Skiing

I also enjoy listening good stories from smart people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Mostly rock and electro. But I'm kinda open to everything.
Rock: Classic, alternative, little bit of punk.
Electronic: House, ambient, trip hop, goa trance, to name a few.

Books:
I'll mention few I liked. "Godfather" by Mario Puzo, "The Storyteller" by Jodi Picoult, "The Kite Runner" and "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini. And I also read bunch of psychology and economy/business books.

Films:
When I look at my movie ratings I see on the top of it: 'Into the Wild', 'Fight Club', 'American Beauty', 'Inception' and 'Seven Pounds'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years after high school, I took my saved money and went for hitchhiking trip from Poland to India. 14 countries on the way. I named it 'Silkroad Journey', because I've tried to follow the ancient route from Europe to Far East with the same name. After India I ended up in Australia where I've worked little bit and then (after 9 months) I came back to my country. I described everything on my personal blog and facebook fanpage.
