Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

To show travellers what's best in Warsaw so they have the best memories.
To get some local help and see the places I visit from the perspective of locals. (Although I haven't couch-surfed yet)

Interessi

Sailing - I've been a skipper on many inland and sea cruises. I am a certified VHF radio operator,
I dance zouk, kizomba, salsa and bachata.

Musica, film e libri

It all depends on the mood and purpose. For example if I am exhausted and I don't to watch "heavy" movie, I'd go for a silly comedy like "Road Trip". Otherwise I'd enjoy something more sophisticated like Woody Allen. I always enjoy watching "The Big Lebowsky" :-)
When it comes to reading, I like crime novels, spy novels and psychology books. Sometimes I seek inspiration in books like "In praise of Slow" or "Affluenza".
I recognize music for different purposes: to listen, for dance, to bedroom and to elevator :-) I listen to U2, RHCP and many other various artists ranging from 60s to now. I also like polish alternative rock. Recently I like to calm down in the rythms of kizomba and zouk. I prefer 80's for partying. Blues and pop/rock ballads are good in bed ;-)

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

- bungee jumped once
- paraglided solo

Insegna, impara, condividi

1. What to see in Poland:
- if you want to hike in quiet, remote place with interesting history, go to Bieszczady. I recommend to stay in Wetlina or Ustrzyki Górne
- Wrocław and Toruń are the best towns to get in touch with interesting architecture and enjoy clubbing. Krakow and Gdansk are overhyped.
2. Bike as a means of transport in visited cities: I've seen it first in Vienna, that so many people ride bikes. There are public bikes to rent for free. Imagine that you are independent of trams or buses and still you can easily move from one place to another. Then how about bringing your own bike with you when visiting any city? I tried it in Budapest and in Croatia - works perfect. Walking the whole cities can be exhausting, and with a bike you get some exercise and a chance to see more.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa
