ABOUT ME
I finished international relations at Warsaw University (I did also one semester in St. Petersburg in Russia). I worked for some time in an international trade, but that didn`t really worked for me. And now I will probably start my work as a volunteer abroad, or start a PhD studies, or look for a new job or for something else... Meanwhile, I`m learning to pass an exam to receive the Warsaw guide license, so I may practice on You while You are around.
Update. I work in aviation industry now, 9 to 5, so I prefer visits on weekends.
PHILOSOPHY
Don`t panic!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed in Ukraine, Scotland, Finland, China, Vietnam & Georgia.
I hosted 4 times. So far, almost entirely positive experiences. It’s just such a great way to meet people.
Interests
I like to think of myself as a person with numerous interests. So if You have something that fascinates and inspires You, I`m always eager for a discussion. But to name just a few things that I find most interesting.
Traveling for sure. Yes I know, it is very unique, so few people especially on CS like to travel, right? Nevertheless it is one the thing that I really enjoy. When I travel I`m always trying to go beyond making dozens of monotonous photos of some picturesque objects that can be found on the internet anyway. The thing that I like the most about traveling, is learning about the diversity of the World. So I like to learn as much as possible about places where I travel.
And that is how we came to my other hobby, history and contemporary international relations, about which I can talk for hours. I believe that a good knowledge of those subjects, gives You broader perspective on the World and helps You to understand more things about other countries and other peoples.
And from nerdy hobbies, Aviation! For some reason I find the difference between TU-22 and TU22M to be a good topic for an hour-long discussion. Since some time, this hobby is also my job :)
Languages, I love to learn foreign languages and about foreign languages. I find all those peculiarities to be a fascinating subject. Currently I'm learning French. I would also like to learn German one day.

Music, Movies, and Books
I adore films by Stanley Kubrick. If it comes to books, definitely M.Kundera and E.Remarque as a whole, but the single book that I read the most amount of times is Catch 22 by J. Heller.
And a lot of various music of almost all kinds.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One would diminish all the rest:)
Teach, Learn, Share
I like to play strategic games like chess and go. I`ve been playing chess for long time, so maybe You will learn something from me. But when it comes to Go, I`m completely green, so I`m looking forward to learn from You.
Food! I`m always willing to teach, learn, and share :)
And of course I like to share each other's experiences about travels. And I have a few of my own.
