About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To stay hungry and foolish!

ABOUT ME

I'm a computer science student with a huge passion for travelling, flying (active flying, you know, the left seat), photography and food. I co-founded a web multimedia agency and I also work as a freelance technical translator.

PHILOSOPHY

I hate clichè, and I feel like everything I'd put in this box would be one, but anyway, I will stay with my favourite - "Life is not about the amount of breaths we take, it's the moments that take our breath away".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now it's not possible for me to offer a couch, but as a guest, I'm always doing my best to behave in a way that will make the visit pleasant, interesting, full of laughter and gained experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

There was a few, highly positive. I'm planning on staying on that track.

Interests

Well, first, I love my job (both web development and software localization). I have a thing for flying - I'm working on getting my PPL licence soon. I consider myself a photographer, but still at a beginner level. Feel free to check out my work via the URL provided below my personal details!
I also love food, and when I travel, local cuisine is always something I'd prefer over any museum or historical landmark.
I'm a runner. Almost every day, running is my both mental and physical exercise.

Music, Movies, and Books

As for books and movies - I'd enjoy every book or movie that is interesting, innovative in some way and doesn't include vampires. My favorite writers are Arthur C. Clarke and Isaac Asimov, my most beloved movies were directed by Steven Spielberg, Lars von Trier, Quentin Tarantino or Stanley Kubrick.
And in my iPod, you will find mostly classic rock, jazz and classical music, and Simon & Garfunkel, The Beatles and Mike Oldfield has been with me since childhood. I love Muse. In the summertime, I enjoy exploring new bands and interprets throughout many european music festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That moment when I held the yoke and flied a Cessna all by myself for the first time was something that I can hardly put down in words and would never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love knowledge and learning new stuff. I'd always enjoy a conversation after which all the participants feel intelectually enriched and satisfied. I can probably teach you a thing or two about flying and technology in general, and on the other hand, I would like to learn more about art or political science.
