Hey!

The name's Dawid. Yeah, with "w", but it's still /v/ in Polish, but there's a twist: you read it as /DAH-vid/. Thanks! I'm a Polish guy who once studied French Language and Literature at the uni, and after couple of years and graduation, decided to take a course in Chinese. I've even gone to China for one year. And I have to admit, that was amazing!

More about me? I'm a person who doesn't like to make problems. Yeah, I have enough of 'em in my own life, so I don't need the new ones. I may be shy at the beginning, but if you give me a chance for a chat, I am sure you may like me. And chat until the sunrise. Or until I fall asleep sitting, what happened a couple of times.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to find some wonderful friends from around the world and the countries I go. Recently, I've been living in a dorm, so there was no chance to take a guest, but I hope it will change soon! Never hesitate to send me a message: maybe I cannot host you, but we still can hang out!

Interests

Many things, to be honest.

- Recently, my productive power is located in my attempts to learn Chinese.
- I like Asian cultures.
- Languages (if you are a linguist: feel free to talk about linguistics with me, I love it! Especially about the languages I haven't learned yet).
- Manga, anime: I'm not an "otaku" or whatever the big fans call themselves, but I still like to watch some series from time to time. Or read a manga.
- Theater- I used to act in some amateur theaters, but unfortunately, as the time passes, so are people in such groups. But I'd still want to do something!

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh, there would be much to say.

Music? I think hard rock or heavy metal. Especially classics.

Movies? I really don't know, maybe "The perks of being a wallflower"? Why? Because it reminds me the '90s.

Books? I really don't have one that I particularly like. But I think I like the fantasy genre.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Volunteering in Emmaus Community in Lyon, France.
- Hitchhiking for the first time from Poland to Croatia and back!
- Being a tutor during a winter camp in Yunnan province in China, and then a 10-days hitchhiking trip across whole province. It was AMAZING.

Teach, Learn, Share

There's not much, but I can always try to teach you one of the languages I know!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- Languages, especially linguistic description of Polish language,
- Stories from my trips,
- Discussions about the culture.
