Hi!

I haven't been using couchsurfing for 4 years. Now I'm back and I'm traveling by bike from my hometown to Greece :)

I'm easygoing and open-minded guy. I get excited by doing new things. Mostly rather listener than talker, but it depends on my mood and energy as well. I've started appreciate and be thankful for small things and moments with people that happen in life. I believe it is a way to be happy!

My big dream is travelling by bike around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great chance for people like me to travel, to get into contact with new people.

Interests

My interests are based on photography, travel and sports - especially football.

My favourite style of photography is minimalism, but I also take other photographs. I would like to start doing model shoots in the near future.

I have travelled in various ways - by car, train, bus, hitchhiking, walking and cycling. With that last way I want to travel worldwidely.

In the past I played football and futsal, nowadays I play rarely, but I still enjoy playing, watching and talking about it.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC
I listen very variety music. I am open to many musical genres. I'm constantly discovering new music. electronic, experimental, indie rock, alternative, rock, funk, r&b, ambient etc.

MOVIES
Recent years I used to be a movie freak, I've watched a lot of them, but still haven't seen a few classic movies... Definetely the most I like drama and prefer non-english movies from all around the world. My fav film is called "The Fall" (2006).

BOOKS
I am not a big reader so far. I read the most popular science and travel literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I couldn't decide on just one, so I wrote out a few!

When I was 19 I went on my first solo trip to Northern Italy. An unforgettable experience! By the way, I started using Couchsurfing right then!

During the erasmus, I ran a half marathon in Huelva. I was not well prepared, already after 5km I lost most of my energy and I had to slow down 🥵 but I finished the run with a very good and satisfying result 😁

I went three times for an erasmus programmes in different places to Spain.

In 2022 I cycled my country, Poland, from the south to the Baltic Sea. From the middle of the trip I struggled with pain in my knee, but I couldn't give up and happily fulfilled one of my smaller dreams.

In 2022, I organized a plan with detailed hours around the United States, and even after two weeks of traveling, the hours matched those in the plan. I couldn't believe that there was no changes of plan, many people were impressed. Me and my friends drove more than 10,000 km in a month and visited 11 National Parks and other incredible places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I take pictures, although I don't have much technical knowledge, I can show you how to take good pictures or make some foto session. This is probably the most frequent skill I share with others :)

I can teach you some polish words. It's always fun to hear people trying say something in polish 😀

And...
One of my longtime skills is brownie baking. I have a whole recipe in my head, if you have the taste for it, I can bake it very quickly!
