I get many couchsurfing requests so sometimes I will decline without further responding. I apologise in advance for that.

I opened my home to strangers again after the pandemic as we all have to get on with life and stop being afraid.
Reading my profile is greatly appreciated. It's very easy to tell a copy and paste request that was sent to many hosts.

I'm Polish by birth and Australian by choice. Living in Taiwan now. Taiwan is great and wonderful and a great secret to be still discovered by the world. My other fascination is Japan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like travelling and I'm curious about people and cultures. Having people come from the world to me is the best next thing.

Interests

• photography
• film making
• anthropology
• skepticism
• the meaning of life
• zhuangzi and others like him
• tinkering with stuff that can be repaired

Music, Movies, and Books

The Cat Empire, Patrick Wolf and much much more. I'm really more interested in what kind of music you listen to. Bring your music with you.

Movies? Miyazaki's movies. Spirited Away is an absolute favourite.

Books? Anything by Philip K. Dick but also Wild Sheep Chase and Wind-up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami.
Orphan of Asia was both amazing and really sad.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gave up on academia and my old life in general and moved across the world to Taiwan.
