ABOUT ME

Susan Sontag once said "I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list." I think that's a pretty accurate statement for me, since if given the chance, I would not pass up a single corner of this planet. Traveling is not just a travel bug. It is simply an insatiable passion that unfortunately is often at odds with a legal career. Often, but not always. Whenever opportunities present themselves to travel I do my best not to pass them up.

Aside for that I love photography, rock climbing and host a volunteer Polish language radio show out of Vancouver.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experiences were on a recent backpacking trip through the Middle East and Eastern Europe. CS truly proved to be one of the highlights of the whole excursion. I met some amazing people, experienced some crazy things, slept in VERY varied accommodations ranging from the most basic to really luxurious, but most importantly will have memories (and hopefully friends) that will stay with me forever.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One???? How can you pick one? I packed my bag and traveled every opportunity I was given, even when I couldn't afford to do so, even when I was unemployed and even when I should have been working or studying. In return I have had the chance to go hang gliding in Rio, white water rafting down the Zambezi, jumped out of a plane in Zambia, volunteered at an orphanage in Kenya, gone climbing in Thailand, scuba diving in Malaysia and Egypt, hiked to the base of Mt. Everest in Tibet and the list goes on...
