Born in Warsaw but raised in Spain I have been lucky enough to live for the past years together with my wife in Gdańsk.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling is something my family got me into since very young and the experiences I have collected thanks to it ensured me in the belief that is something I want to make a big part of my life.
Apart from the beautiful sights and amazing places there are to visit, the essence of travel lies in the people that fill those spots.
As couchsurfing has a way of combining the thrill you get from visiting a new place with meeting new, local people that, from my experience, are so willing to welcome, show around and share their culture and local experiences with the visitors, avoiding at the same time the hassle of mass-tourism.

Interests

Sports make a great part of my day. As much as I would love to try/do them all, at the moment I'm hooked on rope climbing and bouldering. I also enjoy running on the warmer days, as it also allows me to discover the places I'm at.

Devoted football fan. I have been trying myself at cooking the past years so I am very keen on that, also enjoying making food for others.

I love listening to music and that is how I fill my day while not with others although one of my regrets (or goals!) is that I didn't get to learn to play any instrument properly. If so, guitar would have been my choice.

When trying to relax after a long day it is very probable I'll find myself watching/re-watching some series (big fan of Scrubs, The Office, Breaking bad, Sherlock, How I met your mother, etc.)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossing Europe by hitchhiking

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always keen on learning either is it is knowledge or skills. As I have said before, learning to play the guitar is a goal for me as well as learning new languages, Italian as the latest. Otherwise I always feel up to exchanging stories and experiences :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

We live in a flat in the city center at which we can offer our comfortable living-room couch .
We don't get to host often as we are not always available due to work or travelling but I am hopeful we can help our visitors to get to know and enjoy the city as much as possible!
