Overview
About Me
I finished university in 2003 and decided to go for a gap year. But I liked it so much that I can't stop. It's so great to travel through the world meeting amazing people. Why should I stop? :) Of course now and then I do stop. Either to work or when I feel homesick.
Before I joined CS I had traveled for long time and I always met someone on my way who offered me a cup of tea or a bed, but I never used the internet to help it happen. My friends who used this website before told me it's a great way to meet interesting people and convinced me to try it. So I decided to give it a go and I hope that with help of this website I keep meeting local people far more oftern than before.
I like history, geography, politics and many more. I love traveling and meeting new people and learning from them. Trying new thing or different approaches to the things I know already. I just want to learn the whole world :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's a great way to meet new people and learn more about the culture of different countries. Paraphrasing Forrest Gump: "CS is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." And that's the best about this project, coz through this website I can meet people and see places which probably I wouldn't have a chance to meet or see.

Music, Movies, and Books
I do like good films, books and music. But what is good? I don't know. If I had to pick one kind of music it would be good old good rock, the favorite writer Ryszard Kapuscinski and a movie.... I haven't seen a good movie for a long time. The last great one I saw was "Requiem for a dream".
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The first time when I got on a train alone, went to the other side of my country, spend two weeks trekking in the mountains and went back home safely. I was very proud of myself. And that's how the whole traveling thing kicked off. Many more interesting stories happened since then but I'll tell you about them when you pay me a visit or decide to host me :)
Teach, Learn, Share
What can I learn from you guys? Everything! I'm open to learn new stuff and keen to look at the thinks I already know from a new perpective. What can I teach You? I don't have any special skills, but I have seen many places and things and I lived a wee bit (but I'm not that old :) ) so I guess I know some stuff so I can give an advice or two :)
