About Me

I deeply believe in "Small steps lead to big results" philosophy. I would never be in Georgia, Montenegro and Morocco, and I would never see Haghpat Monastery, waterfalls in Bosnia and Beni Mellal in Morocco, if I would not decide to do really, really small cartrip around few Poland cities in November 2013. Since then, I visited 27 countries and saw - I don't know? - over 180 places worth to see and meet many, many inspiring people from around the world; mainly from Couchsurfing in fact. ;) Still hope it's just a beginning, and for sure not an ending!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share a flat and to meet extraordinary you. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:

Sociology (i. a. Ariely, Cialdini),
Psychology (i. a. Kahneman, Carr, Duhigg, de Bono),
Economy (Taleb)
Fantasy (Sapkowski, Pratchett - Night Watch!)

The Most Important for me:

- "So good they can't ignore you" by Cal Newport. Because "follow your passion" is a bad advice.
- "Whatever you think, think the opposite" by Paul Arden. Because I want to stay open minded.

- "Blood Red Snow" by G. Koschorrek. Grief and sorrow of war - it is impossible for me to read this book without crying upon Koschorrek and his brothers in arms fate. You won't think war is fun ever again...

Movies:

House of Cards, The Tudors, Game of Thrones, Inception and Band of Brothers. That's random order. And yes, I know, there's only one movie on that list.

Music:

There are many, many genres I listen to, but Godsmack made who I'm today. Part of.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Few times I've gathered some groups of totally different characters and we've spent great nights together in bars, by the fire, in cartrips and more. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

- How to drink vodka and still look like sober (warning! >Look< only; 2018: I don't drink anymore btw)

- How to be sober and act like drunk (useful when you're the driver in friends company)

- How to fake French/Russian/Irish accents (at least, I think I do it well)

- I can share with you my knowledge about Photoshop, Illustrator and drawing

- I can bore you with stories about cars

- Aaand probably much more, but I've not found out what may be interesting for you :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories about my trips around world and cartrips around Europe (warning: some of them may be boring, as I said before I'm a petrolhead :D), two beds, shower with cold/hot water and liquor cabinet :D
