Greetings!

I'm Jacob - Pole who recently graduated from high school and want to get most from his life.

MY CURRENT GOAL

I was helping hitchhikers as soon as I got my driving license so currently I preparing to become hitchhiker myself. For the first time in my life. Quite exiting to be honest.

I love to learn about cultures around the world but till recently I hadn't have good opportunity to deep dive into them. Now when im old enough to travel by myself, I'm determined to visit as much of Europe (and after that also other parts of world) as possible and learn how life looks there.

ABOUT ME

I'm generally really talkative person, but I can stay silent if needed to (and with proper person even silence can be pleasant). I'm also fully open for new experiences and always glad to learn something new - no matter if I'm host or traveller.

I believe that by learning more about other cultures I will be able to get to know more about myself and (maybe) find place in which I will finally

Oh, and I'm soon to be student on one of Polish technology universities (IT department).

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really open minded when it comes down to music. I enjoy pretty much everything - starting on heavy metal, through some acoustic songs, to old school rap.
However Jonwayne's music have special place in my heart. It helped me when I had rough time in life.

I'm not picky with films either, but I prefer older productions. (Although I have no problem in aprieciating good cinema independently of production year)

Although not being an avid reader Im big fan of Dmitry Glukhovsky's work (and most books of other authors but taking place in his universe). There is something in this post-apocaliptict climat that really grabs me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year I organised 5-person trip in polish mountains - Bieszczady.
We walked over 150 kilometers and saw probably most beautiful pieces of nature in the world. (imho :P)
