Passionate about life and its many adventures, I'm a man who loves capturing the beauty of the world through my camera, skiing, and riding the waves while kitesurfing. Currently music is a new journey for me as I learn to play the saxophone🎷

I love diving into local cuisines and savoring fine wines, enjoying the unique flavors each region has to offer. Learning new languages makes my travels even richer, helping me connect more deeply with people and their cultures. And as an academic teacher, I'm passionate about inspiring and shaping young minds.

My ultimate goal? Launching a YouTube channel focused on Europe’s amazing cultural heritage. I reckon storytelling is a brilliant way to unite people and help us understand our shared past. For me, travelling is all about discovering beauty, and I want my channel to inspire others to explore. Let’s link up, share our stories, and maybe create some new ones along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On Couchsurfing, connecting with locals and experiencing the true essence of a place is what I love most. Shakespeare got it right with, "what is the city, if not the people?" Sharing local cuisine with great company is pure magic. Couchsurfers are the best ambassadors, showing off the genuine and beautiful aspects of their country. This is the real essence of traveling, not being stuck in an all-inclusive resort away from the locals. As a photography enthusiast, I love finding rooftop bars where I can capture the city’s skyline and raise a toast to the new friendships and memories made.

Music, Movies, and Books

🎬🌆 My all-time favorite movie is "Midnight in Paris", a film that perfectly captures the enchanting beauty of the City of Light. Speaking of enchanting, I admire the character of Harvey Specter ("Suits") – his confidence, sharp wit, and impeccable taste in fashion inspire me to strive for the best in every aspect of life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

🌋⛷️Volcanic skiing adventure:
In 2018, I experienced the ultimate adrenaline rush by skiing down the slopes of Mount Etna, an active volcano in Sicily. Little did I know that I was just a day ahead of its eruption! Talk about living life on the edge!
🖼️💰Art heist author:
I've published a book about the fascinating world of art theft, unraveling the mysteries and intrigue behind the scenes. Don't worry, though – it's not an autobiography! 🤣

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m all about sharing knowledge. As a teacher, I love a good chat, but I get even more out of listening. I’m always up for learning from others and sharing my own stories. Whether it’s photography, sports, fashion, or music, I can talk about almost anything. Traveling lets me pick up new languages from locals, and I’m always making new friends. Let’s create memories and epic (insta)stories together! Who knows, maybe I’ll even convince you to visit Poland! 🛋️🌏
