About Me

We're a couple of adventurers, actively trying to make our world a better place with different pro-social projects, aiming to share awareness and the concept of universal consciousness. Our passions are: music, visual culture, yoga, activism, traveling, cooking, new experiences and meeting new people. Katie is a perfumer and art historian, with a passion for culture animation. I'm a student of School of Ideas, dedicated to designing innovation in terms of social and cultural change, and our main goal right now is combining interesting music events with charity and social work through our project Synergy Collective. In our spare time, we love to travel , dig for new music, dance to good tunes, experience and learn new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because of my deep need for exploration, travel, movement, meeting new people, experiencing new things, cultures and in order to share some happy moments with the folks on the way. It took me a while to have a place of my own, ready for accommodating new friends, but I finally have a place to call home so here I am, very glad to welcome the community of fellow surfers : )

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to find new and exciting music, the genre is not important when the music is good. My tastes are very broad: from soul, funk, disco and afrobeat, to psychedelic rock and folk, electronic music, ambient, house, new wave, synth, occasional techno and all in between.
In terms of the books I'm lately reading a lot of reportages, anthropological and philosophical books, science and nature, but I also love prose.
About the movies: I was studying Film Sciences and New media, so I've seen almost everything - my tastes are also quite broad. I love the classics like Fellini, Antonioni, Godard, French New Wave, Polanski, Hass, but I'm also into Paul Thomas Anderson, Wes Anderson, Luca Guadagnino, some new exciting movies. I always stay in the loop and try to explore.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Katie and I successfully organized 5 glorious fundraiser parties and concerts, combining our love for good music and helping others. We did it in order to support different foundations helping refugees, victims of racism/xenophobia/inequality, as well as protecting women rights because we felt that current political and social situation in Poland demanded quick and positive change. They were all great success, the purpose of other 2 was community work and building bridges between people of all nations, genders, sexualities and viewpoints.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be happy to share some good and exciting music, movies, I'm told that I'm also a good chef so I'll be happy to prep something for my hosts and guests. We love to explore so we can go on a tour, both in the place of our visit and when you'll come by to visit our homeland :) my personal favorites are the mountains and the seaside where I was born.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm told that I can cook very good so I'll be happy to prep some meals for my hosts and enchant them with long conversations about life, arts, culture and all in between. I'm also crazy about collecting new music so I'll be happy to share my archive with you, best if while dancing.
