Overview
About Me
I like going to the movies a lot. I love those small local theaters where the rooms are filled with the smell of popcorn and one can still stumble upon some old Woody Allen's movie filmed in black-and-white.
I do a lot of volunteering too. I worked with people from all the walks of life, now mostly with children.
"Life is a combination of magic and pasta."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Well, someday I'll have kids and I want to have some good stories to tell them.
Interests
I like old American movies and sitcoms.
I am really into coffee. I had a chance to meet and learn a bit from Master Barista of Poland, Agnieszka Rojewska and for a while worked as a barista myself in Edinburgh, Scotland.
But still it's more of an interest than an actual expertise.
And I work pretty hard on my Spanish now, listening for hours to the Spanish radio and reading some simple books, I am proud of my recently brought-to-an-end struggle with Hemingway's "Old Man and the Sea". I can't wait till I make it to Marquez.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a huge fan of popular culture. I love those cool movies from the 80s, like Back to the Future or E.T.
I am this rare kind of a person that would always go for Goodfellas over the Godfather. I am a huge fan of Federico Fellini and Woody Allen too.
My perfect movie would be probably a combination of Annie Hall and Amarcord with the Big Lebowski and Forrest Gump. ^^
