About Me

ABOUT ME
I am IT guy by day, and writer by night. Soon to finish my first novel ^^

I used to run two startups, been a part of professional sailing team, study in China for a year, freelance as a copywriter and run creative workshops for advertising agencies.

As cliché as it may sound, love meeting new people, and it's usually through relations that I experience new places.

Big fan of Kitesurfing, skiing and other extreme sports.
Countries I've visited so far:

PHILOSOPHY

"It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used CS while I was travelling through SEA, and once I settled in Warsaw I host a few people here, and hang out with some other :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing! Every time when i do it, surfing or hosting. When you travel and do CS it is like being in those places more, at least two times! And every time you are left with some crazy story of a person that you have just met.

Interests

I'm interested in everything which draws me in and makes me forgot about whole world. Usually those are an interesting people and stories that they tell, travelling and discovering new places, hanging out with my friends and extreme sports.

Lately it is changing civilization, Venus Project, meditation and entrepreneurship cause I'm opening a new start up with a friend.
