Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed twice in Germany and once in Finland. Now I'd also like to be at this second side of couchsurfing :)

The other thing is that I'd like to share travel experience, exchange thoughts about travelling and get to know new people.

I"d also like to spend some time with travellers and practise my english or german as well :)

Interests

I'm interested in cars and automotive industry ever since I can remember. In my free time I Iike swimming and mountain biking. I also love to travel (especially city breaks are my favourite), meeting people from different cultures and see the world.
I really like changing some old parts of furniture and give them a new life - upcycling best :)

On subjects like cars, motorsport, travelling, mountains, adventures, planes, some kinds of sport, etc. I can talk endlessly :p But I love to learn new things and broaden my knowledge on different grounds.

I'm of the opinion that every place, city and coutrny has its own soul, you just have to discover :) #neverstopexploring

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen almost everything; it can be pop, metal or even disco or coutry music. But rock is what I like the most.

I like watching action and thriller films, but sometimes also comedies.

The same is with books - thrillers are my favourite (James Patterson; John Grisham, Jo Nesbo, Chris Carter, Camilla Läckberg, etc.)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well... there are a few things that I'm proud of or they were just very new for me, etc. But I think hitchhiking from Poznań to Budapest in about 22 hours was just amazing!

One day I'd like to build the vehicle that I designed during my master thesis :)

I can share with you my free time. You definitely won't feel alone in the city of Poznań.
