CURRENT MISSION

I want to go on a mountain-top with a radio and good batteries and play a joyous tune and free the human race from suffering! Hahaha. No. My current mission: to survive.

I'm into micro-trips. Like: take a metro and go to the last stop, meet a person there, go with them to have a pint in their favourite local place, talk, do something extraordinary or cook some comfort food, watch a movie, go to sleep, drink tea in the morning, take a metro again, go home.

ABOUT ME

I'm smiling a lot. It's the best way to hide my fear and loathing in London.
I'm always late.
My English is so Polish.

PHILOSOPHY

The universe is a cruel, uncaring void.
The key to being happy isn't a search of meaning, it's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you'll be dead!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was really happy to show people some genuine Polish mess called Katowice. I still can do it, even in exile. After 5 pints I'm some kind of Polish mess.

I'm too lazy to travel. So I came to London. The whole world is already there.
