About Me

Hey, I am Ivo, 26 years old guy from Poland, I used to traveled a lot back in the days, after a few years where I focused mainly on work and similar foolishness, the soul of the traveler woke up in me again :) Currently want to visit Germany again and Italy for first time before autumn :)

Also, I am currently working as Sales and Support Specialist (I know, it sounds a bit boring) in Cracow based company :) Still trying to finish my studies about International Cultures (I know, it takes me a long time).
I lived in many cities and a few countries but for the nearest time I can say that I live in Krakow so feel invited :)

Also, planning to do the first tattoo and try skydiving soon

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was quite active member of Couchsurfing during my high school/studies (well, I used to travel much more than now :() and I have a really, really good memories from Couchsurfing adventures :) (unfortunately, I often forgot about references, which is a bit visible in my profile, such mistakes, not wow wow). I would like to focus more on travel again, I hope that couchsurfing and people here are still just as awesome as they used to be ;)

Interests

Well, my studies was related to art and culture so yeah, art and cultures of the world for sure, besides that, many many types of things like books, music, movies, sports, travelling and a looooooot more :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - mainly jazz, rock but I would say that I have pretty varied musical taste
Books - favourite book? Hard to say but I really, really love "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and all books from Terry Pratchett and John Boyne
Movies - well, it's hard to say aswell but I think it would be "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" or "Shawshank Redemption". Or "Fight Club". Or any Wes Anderson movie. Or "Green book", I saw it in last month and it's awesome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won a chess tournament in high school. And seriously, I hope that maybe someday they will write about amazing things I've done in Wikipedia, for now nothing really spectatular :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share information about my country and my culture, also I can teach you some fancy polish words and meals ;) and I would love to learn the same from my hosts and guests :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversations, crazy stories from travels, interesting things from my culture/country, also a hand-made dinner/supper and tea/coffee/beer for sure ;)!
