About Me

Ok, I have to admit, that most of the information below is not up-to-date ;P I'm not a student anymore, I'm not a dancer neither. I still do try a lot of new things though. Recently I learnt a lot about photography and plants, I'm still in love with urbanism, good food, good drinks and perfect coffee. I work in aviation at the moment.

CURRENT MISSION

I'm still trying to get to know myself. All the time searching for new adventures, useful knowledge, interesting people and most of all - my way to live a life... :)

ABOUT ME

I'm open-minded, easygoing and spontaneous guy. I'm a student, but this isn't my main occupation ;) During my studies I've worked as an animateur, master of ceremonies, dance teacher, waiter. I have also worked in chocolate factory and right now I'm working in air traffic agency.

I love eating, cooking, dancing, listening to good music and most of all hanging out with my friends :)

Interests

My biggest and strongest passion is dancing. I dance in Ganesz Crest, a dance formation from Pabianice. We are dancing hip hop style mostly, but my favorite is house. I also fancy riding a bike, playing squash and absolutely snowboarding! I like playing board games with my friends... No! I just like spending time with them ;) No matter if we play a game, drink beer or just talk for all night! :D And I love mountains!
Right now I'm learning how to play harmonics, singing in choir and doing CrossFit. Knowing myself I'm quite sure it's a matter of days and I'll find a new activities ;)
I have many interests and this is a little problem, because I want to try almost everything, know about everything and for this I need much more time than I have ;) But my life goes on and I'm still learning new things and discovering my new interests, beautiful places, remarkable people...

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading books and I always regret that I have so little time for them. When I was younger my favorite book was "Hobbit", but I also really enjoyed Harry Potter - and I still like those books!
I read about all what interests me. I can read "Przesunąć Horyzont" by Martyna Wojciechowska once and once again and I will never get bored by it. It is a book about polish woman who reached the summit of Mount Everest after breaking her backbone. I also recommend you to read books of Kinga Choszcz. She hitch-hiked around the world and than through Africa, which was her last journey. Unfortunately she died from malaria...
All above was written many years ago. Right now I'm reading authors such as Kerouac, Bukowski, many books about travelling, self-development, biographies of inspiring people or just any book that seems interesting to me.

I also like good movies. There are many I like. In this moment I can list The Godfather, The Shawshank Redemption, Gladiator, The Last of the Mohicans, Requiem for a Dream or Awakenings, but this is only a few of many. Sometimes I just want to sit down with a bottle of beer and watch something light and entertaining. I also love good series, such as Game of Thrones, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, The Tudors, Prison Break or True Blood.

Music? I listen to everything which suites me at the moment. I like rock and alternative music, but I can listen to anything which sounds nice - sometimes pop, sometimes rap and sometimes I just play some dance music and jump all around the room ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing omlette with feta, ham, tomatoes and thyme ;)
It's a hard question. For me the most beautiful place in the world are Bieszczady Mountains in Poland - a place like no other... So I think every time I go there and spend a few days just walking from shelter to shelter is doing something amazing :)
