My name is Paweł and I am an 21-year-old student.

I live in Thorn in Poland. I'm studying programming in Mikolaj Kopernik University. Nice to meet you :).

I'm interested in music. I'm playing guitar since 2011 and I'm learning to sing for about 2 years. There was a time when I used to play a piano. I also played a lot of gigs. I play mainly some rock/blues music. If someone wants to hear one of our songs you can find the songs in "Share" column, It is also important to mention that i love music festivals. Each year I participate in Woodstock festival - one of the biggest Polish events.

Another part of me is fascinated in medieval history. I belong to the group where we reconstruct the history of medieval. We're participating in medieval tournaments, playing some old music , setting full camps with armament, munition, tents and moreover. Personally i love to feel this unique atmosphere. :) :) :)

I love traveling and can not imagine life without them. See you!

Last year I was on Erasmus program in Spain. I lived in Vic in Catalonia. I studied there as well. It was great adventure. I met a lot of people and traveled a lot in Catalonia. I learned a little bit of Catalan and I improved my spanish.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We decide with my friend to meet some amazing people, to show them how it looks to live in Poland. Other thing is that we want to explore world in a new, unknown way. :)

Couchsurfing also allows to travel more spontaneously than normal. You don't know where to go but you know that you'll be somewhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was a skateboarder i used to ignore my limits. Once, when i went to the new skatepark in our city (it was last day of holiday) I decided top jump from 4-5 stairs (I've never done it before). I gave myself 100 attempts. About 50 attempt i strained my ankle, what's more when i was in 76 attempt i twisted it :C. That's my "crazy" story. As a consolation, I didn't have to go to school next day.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am truly open minded. I can cook for you. I do not mess. I can help with cleaning, washing, iron and other household duties :). We can play together on instruments. We can travel together.

And if you have some animals it wont be problem for me :). I have two friends who are brothers and have about 16 cats at home. I love them. Probably I'm a little bit allergic to cats but that's not a big deal.
