I'm a graphic designer and art director. I used to study cultural anthropology in Warsaw and graphic design at Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. Currently I design for a London based startup www.ralloo.com that will help people achieve their dreams. In my free time I learn to play piano, chill on one of my bikes, read lots of books, trying to write and sometimes I cook thai food :) Check out my website www.tenelement.pl to see what i do professionally. I use to have my own graphic design studio for 5 years. I'm a couchsurfing member since 2007.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people. The reason to travel for me is to share experiences, tell and listen to stories. I love to share my passion with others and getting to know what they love to do.

Interests

Couple of months ago i started to learn to play piano, so my most current passion is contemporary piano music. I love reading books. I like to design and i'm interested in all things connected with design issues. I maniacally ride on one of my bikes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We bought a 350$ toyota previa with 1million miles on the counter and travelled the whole east coast of USA. It was great and fantastic things have happened. We didn't have a plan, just to drive and see what happends. During that trip i've surfed on a strange island while the hurican was starting; met friends from poland on some other island in north carolina,, i was lost in apallachian mountains... Hope i will have opportunity to tell this story :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
