CURRENT MISSION

Exploring Russia, where it starts (and sometimes ends)

ABOUT ME

A big deal of couriosity is why I like (and use) CS, so for that it is why I like living in a big city and traveling to on my own to countries on my own. You never know what will come up.

I enjoy spontanous people and the ones who are not afraid of saying a word at a time, where no one else would.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting the people I dont know yet, who live a lifstyle I dont know yet. I want to see and experience, how you live, how you work, how you think and what you think.

So I guess I am quite open

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Warsaw: Meetings and a lot of guests in our house.

I had a marvellous CS experience in Russia, Georgia, Ukraine and Armenia. It was a crazy mix of Syrians, Iranians, Armenians with some polish and german backpackers singing, eating and drinking.

I enjoyed meeting plenty of locals there, too, and I hope this is going to happen again soon, wherever it might be.

Interests

Anything about history, but in a sense of stories being told.

Otherwise I seek contact with many kinds of art, at the moment foremost contemporary classical music, but every good idea is welcome.

Also I am into cooking, but maybe even more in the products than in the preparation.

Living in Poland and having travelled around quite a bit in that region I find the Central/Eastern European Region tremendously interesting. History seems to be alive everywhere you go.

Right now I am learning Russian I hope it will bring me closer to understanding the region and meeting people from all over Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

I guess I am relatively interested in international relations issues.

Music, Movies, and Books

Opera and concerts, but I am open to whatever comes up.

My favourite book changes everytime I am reading a good one, so right now it is David Foster Wallace who is a great observer but at the same time he is incredibely funny

Teach, Learn, Share

Company and cooking (but cooking for others always means good company, right?)
