Overview

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a mixture of good social vibe that is available in every hostel with a chance to meet real locals, check how they live, get to know them better etc.
Couchsurfing fully represents the idea of social travelling. This is what I like about it.
Interests
TRAVELLING - weekends away flying low cost airlines!, shooting short movies with my gopro camera :) [EDIT* I lost my gopro in Tajikistan so now I can only shoot them with my mobile ;) ]
INFRASTRUCTURAL INVESTMENTS IN POLAND - This might sound silly, but I like to see how my country changes every day, so I try to follow major infrastructure investments (such as highways, railways, bike paths and roads)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1. I went to Poveglia Island in the Venice Lagoon—also known as the most haunted island in the world (you can google it) Ok, I didn't stay there overnight, but still, it was worth seeing as it is incredibly fascinating that there still can be uninhabited island in such a crowded place like Venice.
2. I also spend a night on the beach on Hormoz Island in Iran - swimming in the sea, drinking local alcohol (which is illegal in Iran!) and having fun!
3. I hiked magnificent Ala-Kul lake in Kyrgyzstan (6 times already ;)
4. I had a chance to see the beauty and magic of Syria. Three times so far. Can't wait to go back.
5. I've been to Socotra (Yemen) - ABSOLUTE PARADISE
Teach, Learn, Share
In exchange for a couch I can:
- do your dishes (I don't mind, it's pretty relaxing)
- prepare a Polish dinner! (or Italian or Lebanese)
- teach you some Polish
What I Can Share with Hosts
My sense of humor.
My working in tourism life experience.
My knowledge of Polish (well, if you mix the second thing on this list with some hours of Polish lessons you might actually start talking like a pro!
Krówki (any guesses on what 'krowki' might be?)
