Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I can mostly participate by promoting a real cultural exchange between me and all my future hosters as I am travelling for my projects a lot. But I can also meet anyone who is around JKT if I'm not busy!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been couchsurfing for 2 years. I made lots of friends, especially in Asia where I stayed nearly one month in 2013. Everything is so much fun when you are with the others.
I also got some experiences in collocations and it all went well. But it is also important to set limits and talking a lot so the other one can better understand your way of living. :)

Zainteresowania

** Sports (or what I used to do)**
- Martial arts (esp. Tae Kwon Do);
- Ice figure skating (been practicing this one for +10 years);
- Basket Ball (love to watch and play);
- Running
- Gym

** Activities **
- High interested in psychology, self-development and sociology books. If I had to keep only one author, it would be Tony Robbins. I am a total fan of his books. I also love the French author Laurent Gounelle, particularly his best-seller "The Man Who Wanted To Be Happy".

- Also like general fictional books, Haruki Murakami is my favorite author in this and I love the serie "1Q84".

- I am a professional photographer documenting ethnic groups in Indonesia.

- I have a growing desire to learn any cultures related with Southeast Asia. Needless to say I love to travel. I got the chance to meet people from Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Philippines and I got overwhelmed by their kindness, warmth and way of living.

- Love to social networking with the others (that's why I am here!). At the moment, as I am actively traveling, I do not get the chance to spend a lot of time on social networks but am still active because I work for an electronic music label "Abora Recordings". You can follow us on Facebook here: www.facebook.com/AboraRecordings

- I happen to listen to some "commercial" artists as well like the British group Coldplay, or Bruno Mars or more recently Ellie Goulding.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Will put an amazing list soon, need to think about that! :)

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

I think most of the things have been said above. If ever I forgot something, I will write it here. :)

But in a general way, I love cultural exchange, languages (which is something I really enjoy), curiosity, and the way of life in general.
Therefore I am willing to learn ANY kinds of new languages, aside of French and English of course.

So many things, and I think that everything i wrote above state it. I have a reall enjoyable personality, very cheerful, really out-going, always positive thinking.

If you host me, you will not regret it and will beg me to go back to your place as soon as possible, haha!
