About Me

CURRENT MISSION

why not to learn Chinese?

ABOUT ME

I was born to travel round the world!
I try to be unternehmungslustig, as Germans say.
I try to hitch-hike at least once a month (in order not to forget how to do it).
like a hobo!

PHILOSOPHY

Time spent in train is no waisted
When I visit all more or less 200 countries, then I will finally have time to think about where to go next!
I would like to travel so much, that I could every evening tell my children another story about another place in another country about people of another culture.

Be unternehmungslustig!
I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list!

'Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

With every moment I would like to engage in the project even more. I am a guest from time to time and have the prime possibility to host people - my door is open to you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

*couchsurfed in Europe, Africa, Asia, America
*hosted in Warsaw, Poland
*shared a flat with a few CSers
*spread the word of CouchSurfing!

Interests

what I will be doing all the next week?
recently sailing became my passion. it was quite a surprise as i'd not had any slightest experience still few months ago and than just started it. it's fantastic!
culture: movies, books, people, sightseeing, history (economic, political..)
politics, history of cities
I play snooker, love tennis, would like to go jogging more often or live in Australia/Miami and run there on the beach. I am definitely up for every kind of sport.
hitch-hiking because now it's the only way of travelling I can afford on my own;
economics

I like the moment of spending a night looking for cheap flight tickets and buying it. Then backpacking.
I collect my used train tickets as a sign of friendship with PKP (Polish State Railways) and to count at sime time how much money I spent to make PKP even much better
A thing I am always looking for when travelling are local cookbooks. If I am buying these as souvenirs for myself, at least they are somewhat useful :)
My dreams:
*to have a sauna
*to have a yacht
My bigger dream: to have a sauna, you can attach to yacht!
(to put it frankly, it's not very serious, because I don't dream very much to own something special)

Music, Movies, and Books

My dream on a stereo set partly came true. So I am again beginning to listen to music. Although I am not a dedicated fan, I don't even have a mp3 player, but I like some classic songs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

All my life is amazing. I can mention many things but it's like boasting so come and stop by, let's talk and judge yourself.
OK. From some funny stuff I can mention moving out of home when I was 12 or self cheap-budget no-accomodation abroad go-ahead trip when I was 17. And I (used to) cook on my own

Teach, Learn, Share

We can cook together or I can tell you where the good hitchhiking spots are in Warsaw.
