Overview
About Me
Hi,
by day I'm trying to save the World - I'm an environmental campaigner and PhD student. Off the duty - trying to enjoy my life and use my time best way I know. That is: hanging out with friends, doing sports (climbing, skitouring) and exploring nature.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love the town I live in - Warsaw and enjoy showing ppl around. Don't have much time now - doing PhD as well - but still, meeting new people would be nice. I have a comfy couch in my living room and a terrace where one can enjoy the beautiful Warsaw views.
Interests
I love dancing, I dance a lot with my friends in Warsaw clubs and outdoors. I do a lot of sports - that's what people say. Nowadays, it's mostly sport climbing. I also ski and do skitouring. I am really keen on environment - which is also my job. Apart from that I like architecture and politics. I'm involved in a campaign on road safety in Warsaw.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music - being a dancer - anything that gets me going. Ranging from hip hop to dance, rock, pop and soul.
Movies - I like European 'artistic' cinema, but don't mind Hollywood pictures. All-time favourite show - The Wire. Fav comedy - The Office.
Books - I read a lot about social change and campaigning. Currently catching up on Naomi Klein.
Favourite podcast - 'Making Obama' and 'The Knowledge Project'.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My life is quite eventful and full of adventures, but if I was to name one thing? I guess living by my passion. That's probably the most amazing thing I've done.
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach public speaking and campaigning. I used to teach dancing and skiing. I share books I own. I would love to learn Spanish one day.
