About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Staying in touch with the international community while earning money for the next 3-month trip outside Europe.

INFO for guests/couchsurfers
I'm always excited about hosting/hanging out with travelers coming to Warsaw so feel free to text me! Sometimes you just need to be patient, because I'm quite a busy guy and may not respond immediately ;) If you're looking for a place to sleep I can offer you my couch, but be sure to contact me at least one week before coming. Also bear in mind that I don't live in Warsaw and it takes around 45 mins to get to the center of Warsaw from my house.

ABOUT ME
I'm 20 and I' m still looking for my place in this world. I was born and raised in Poland, I live with my parents in Legionowo, but I study and spend most of my time in Warsaw. As a child I was fascinated and tried my hand at sport, music, science and philosophy. I only stuck with science for longer, but the rest is very important for me and I still try find some time for them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Thanks to this website I've met few amazing people and I want to meet more.

Interests

I found that the best way to combine my passion for science and technology is chemistry. I'm not sure if I want to pursue my career in academic research, but for this moment I really enjoy working in lab. I've spent around 2 years working as an intern in a research group in Warsaw and this year I plan to find some more time to get involved in new, exciting projects, maybe work on my own project.

Recently I got attracted to programming and computer science. I've started to learn Python, because in my opinion computers are going to play even more significant role in our life and at some point coding will be as crucial as speaking English. I'm also looking for some ways to use computers in my chemical research.

Sports: I can't imagine winter without snowboard or ski, I also enjoy ice skating. I used to play basketball in a primary school, since then sport is very important for me, so I still try to find time for it, mainly gym or swimming.
