About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hitch hiking to Gorillas in a gorilla costume!

ABOUT ME

I live in Warsaw with my wife and two kids. I write for several magazines and teach English. I try to travel as much as I can in my free time... I am particularly interested in ex Soviet countries. Really want to go to New Zealand and the Pacific region in the future though.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Any questions about hitching anywhere.. send me an sms "I'm stuck in a field in Norway, where is the road to Nigeria".. I'll try to help ;)

I've hosted hundreds of people on various hospitality platforms, currently I can't host but I'd be happy to show you around - I think I'm relatively experienced at doing that, so should be able to show you the best bits!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I knew a lot of CSers before they were actually in CS, a lot of us moved over from the HC scene but I have to say that I've been pretty quiet in recent years. Beware though... I'm making a comeback!!!!

Interests

Music (psychedelic rock, garage, stoner metal, heavy metal and hard rock), Hitch hiking, conservation, fundraising, beer, writing, trains, hiking in mountains, reading biographies and historical stuff.
