About Me

I'm a wanderer and wonderer, in love with the world outside and inside. Awe rather than irony. Wilderness rather than cities. Always ready to make big spontaneous decisions, go with the flow, meet people, taste the new and the unexpected!

I believe in basic human rights, tolerance, gender equality, sharing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel, host and learn. People I met through CS were some of the most amazing human beings I've seen, challenging who I am and how I see the world.

Interests

Everything is interesting if the teacher loves his subject! I'm fascinated by the brain and its underlying mechanics, how it processes abstract structures and art, how it's influenced by psychedelics and how things like religion or morality emerge out of it.

On the other hand, spirituality, art of living, things beyond the dictionary of science, whatever you wanna call this profound sense of oneness you experience sometimes, is very important to me.

Staring, observing, trying to encompass. Being challenged. Painting, drawing, writing. Conversations.

Music, Movies, and Books

Nicolas Jaar, Philip Glass, Autechre, Biosphere, Terry Riley, Sufjan Stevens, some jazz here, some rap there, lots of world music

I love dream-like logic of Lynch, piercing imagery of Koyanisqaatsi and Samsara, breadth of Yourcenar and, sometimes, cold intricacies of Nabokov. But I don't enjoy much talking about the art itself, rather how it intersects with your life and changes it, how it leads to other people, other worlds, things forever lost and those yet to discover.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you don't like to come empty-handed, you can bring a piece of your home - smell of tea, a movie, a pebble, anything really.

I can offer you a different perspective, conversations, we could try to discover some hidden gems of Warsaw together, watch a movie, share a drink. Or I can let you be alone. We have different motivations, our moods vary and the last thing I want from you is fake cheerfulness. Just communicate your needs and don't wear a mask.

I'm not really a party person, I definitely prefer abandoned train stations (combining these would work well I guess).

Please let me know in your request why you think you'd like to be my guest.
