CURRENT MISSION

Catching the moment

ABOUT ME

I am a student of journalism and communication in Poznan, Poland. My passion is photography (photography and photographing), I would like to do something with it in the future.

PHILOSOPHY

"There is still that singular perfection, and it’s perfect in part because it seemed, at the time, so clearly to promise more. Now she knows: That was the moment, right then. There has been no other.” (Michael Cunningham, "The Hours"

"It is so that, feelings are moving the same way plates that form the Earth do. When they move, the continents collide with each other - creating violent tides, volcanoes, tsunamis, earthquakes. So - feelings are also variable. Their waves, violent outbursts and changes make little disasters, which sometimes have positive effects, as if not caring for the definition".
(my thougts inspired by Erich Emmanuel Schmitt)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting, being hosted.. Love to do both of them.
CS helps to meet facinating people and ensures me that the world is not so evil (as is seems to be).

Interests

Travelling (I would like to see places, that are not trampled by tourists, but rather are hidden and you
must find them. Or maybe there is a mystery in them?)

Meeting people

Photographing and photography

Art (almost all kind)

Literature (epics & poems)

Music (world, ethno, spritual, jazz, punk-rock, rock)
