Overview
About Me
I was born in Poland at the tender age of zero.
I'm chill and I enjoy cringe-worthy moments.
I brew a decent cup of coffee #aeropress.
I have a dog.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've hosted several dozen CouchSurfers. I'm on good terms with those who've survived.
I tend to take long breaks from hosting, but I'm back in the game now.
Oh, I've only surfed five times myself.
CS is fun. It's also a never-ending experiment that just keeps on providing me with interesting life lessons.
Interests
Either too many or too few — I get confused.
I read a lot, mostly non-fiction.
I like good food but will eat anything.
I went back to university to study psychology (update: I'm taking time off from that.)
I enjoy words. And sentences. That wasn't a sentence.

Music, Movies, and Books
I really like the Coen brothers, Gaspar Noe, and Paul Thomas Anderson. Movies that have impressed me the most in the last few years include "Enter the Void", "2001: A Space Odyssey", "There Will Be Blood", "Adaptation", and "Fargo." I enjoy eye-candy long-form cinematography (i.e., Ron Fricke and Godfrey Reggio for the win.)
Here's what I listen to — http://www.last.fm/user/DylanCashWaits
I mostly read non-fiction. I'm a fan of Steven Pinker, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, Barbara Ehrenreich, David Sedaris, and David Foster Wallace (to name a few.)
I like to think of myself as a stand-up kind of guy (bad pun intended) — I like Ricky Gervais, Jimmy Carr, Louis CK, Anthony Jeselnik, Flight of the Conchords, Myq Kaplan, Daniel Tosh, Amy Schumer, and Reggie Watts. Does Karl Pilkington count as a comedian?
Huge podcast fan, btw.
OK, now get schwifty.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I came up with an idea for a dramedy series and wrote screenplays for the first three episodes. Despite an exec's excitement, it never got produced. Still, I'm quite proud of this.
I once caught a shoplifter.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can wiggle my ears. It's my only God-given talent. I lie. It's an acquired skill.
I can show you around town (if you feel like company), or I can let you run wild on your own.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Anything but the last scoop of peanut butter cup ice cream.
