About Me

hey there!🤙🏼

my nights? well, they're all about mixing it up with the locals 🌃, sharing stories, and occasionally diving headfirst into some wild escapades 😄

when i'm not wandering through majestic mountain trails ⛰️🏔️ or cruising along the sun-kissed coastlines 🏖️, you'd probably find me catching some waves or swimming in whatever body of water's close by 🏊‍♂️💦

▶️ travel experience

globetrotting 🌍🌎🌏 began with cycling trips 🚲 around poland and germany and school exchange programs 🏫🔄. i'm into short city tours and long adventures camping by lakes and rivers 🏕️🏞️

lived with buds from canada, hungary, italy, france, germany, and finland, opening my mind to diverse cultures.

during the pandemic, i moved to portugal, living solo on an island in the atlantic. a total game-changer! 🌊🏝️

for summer 2022 i tried to catch some waves and soak up the sun along the west coast, from cali to canada 🏖️🌊🏄‍♂️

'23-24 out of warsaw to Singapore, diving into the city's vibe and finding new adventures 🏙️🎉. let's see where the journey takes me next!
