About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being a good boy

ABOUT ME

I am a happy person that enjoy life and traveling. Welcome!

PHILOSOPHY

Lots philosophies! I love to think about what life is all about. I do it as often as I can. it is even better to think about personal philosophies together :)

Make other people feel good. It will make your world a better place.

Happiness is not a destination, but a way to travel.

"the Gods envy our mortality; because each minute could be our last."

To live without regrets has two components: a bit of courage and a lot of morals. We regret what we did not do. But we will certainly regret what we did knowing it was wrong.

"Stay with the good energies"

If you travel too fast, you are gonna miss what made you travel.

Consciousness has a short expiration date :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to host and visit many people and meet them in a way that they experience that the world is full of good people. Full of friends that we just need to get to know.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

What I enjoy the most is to meet people and really get to know them. Sometimes these meetings changes our entire lifes :) It is equally good when you have a guest staying over or if you are the guest. Meetings like these show ways to live that we could not imagine!

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy fantasy books and emotional movies. I have recently discovered that music is a really nice thing, it really brings out a lot of feelings from us. So if you have any music that you enjoy that would be just great. Because honsetly, I know nothing about music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once in a tram in Poland I saw an old lady that was looking at a little baby, she was so happy and calm. I saw how her wise eyes where glittering with hope and satisfaction of the life she had lived. The baby looked at me and clapped her hands, I looked at the old lady and smiled.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot to learn... I would like to learn and see more ways of perceiving the world. It is always so great to listen to and learn from what people feel has made them into who they are. Teach... maybe, I know how to open a coconut and how to build an igloo :)
