Overview
About Me
I'm currently postponing getting a regular full-time job and I'm teaching English in Thailand instead. One of the best decisions of my life so far.
I love to talk (very excitedly) about useless (or not) facts mostly about languages and cultures. You can talk to me about anything except for maybe cars and the technicalities of sport.
I want to live to see what happens next. Always sincerely hoping that the next thing happening is going to be another interesting journey.
I cannot really stay in one place even if I'm trying to. Some people are thrill-seekers but since I'm a chicken I'm a knowledge and connection seeker.
I appreciate open-minded people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
People know their city more than any paper guide and they're more fun to be around with. Nothing broadens your horizons like meeting new people (you probably wouldn't meet without cs).

Music, Movies, and Books
I like music that makes me feel something. I listed to Radiohead, Crystal Castles, The Dumplings, trash music i enjoy and lots of other stuff. Anyways you can look it all up on my Spotify

I love story-telling movies. Documentaries (but even more mockumentaries), dramas or artistic films are my thing. Jim Jarmusch is one example.
I think the same applies to the books I like. Recently I've mostly been reading for uni so not so much for fun before that I was really into Vonnegut though. I'm really into queer theory and that's what I researched before I quit the uni for a while.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I talked to a pretty person in a bar. That's probably the scariest thing I've ever done.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some Polish. I'd be glad to tell you about Slavic mythology, Scandinavian cultures and all sorts of things that I like. If you want I can send you a postcard from Gdańsk the next time I'm there. Also I cook pretty well (not chef level though) so I can make you something you'd like.
I have quite a lot travel tips to share.
