ABOUT ME

I moved to New York almost three years ago from Poland. I grew up there, though I was raised by an Anglophile who sent me to England for the first time (for a trip) when I was twelve. I got hooked. Eventually I ended up moving to Exeter for a while and I picked up the accent.

I wouldn't change living in New York for anything (at least for now) though I Love getting out of the city.

I could be a professional coffee drinker and I have a weakness for hats. Recently I finally found the courage to put my own work out there which is an exciting and motivating step.

PHILOSOPHY

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate ?

“What would you be like if there's nobody else in the world ?Who would you be if the only opinion that mattered was yours ?Because if you want to be truly happy you must be that person. You must search inside yourself for is uniquely you. When you find it, polish it until it becomes your style. Is no good being pig farmer for 30 years looking back and saying “I was meant to be a ballet dancer. By that time pigs are your style.

Quentin Crisp

To look life in a face, always, to look life in a face, and to know it, for what it is.
To know it, to love it,, and then to put it away.
Always the years between us, always the years, always the love, always the hours.

"The Hours"

"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better."

Samuel Beckett

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted several people with my flatmates when I lived in Poland. I couch-surfed in New Orleans,DC,Boston,San Francisco, New England, Puerto Rico, Montreal and a few places in North California. Made some great friendships through CS!

Recently I had a lovely opportunity to repay the favour to a few hosts (now friends) with whom I stayed with when I was travelling.

Seeing coffee plantations in Puerto Rico last year was pretty incredible.

Few years ago I rode a motor bike with a bunch of friends to Czech Republic.

I'm always amazed about the curiosity and restlessness that we all, travelers that is, posses. That hunger for an experience, whatever it may be. And we're here too and it works. Theoretically it shouldn't but it does, doesn't it?
