CURRENT MISSION

spreading love, joy and kindness through presence, movement and unconditional laughter,

ABOUT ME

Being present in each moment and rejoicing wonderful ocean of peace I can find inside me. Dancing makes me feel I'm alive. Loving to mix different langauges. . When travelling I like to taste what could be an incredibly ordinary live somewhere else and write about it beacuse what people consider "ordinary" often appears to be magical to me. I am happy to be father of 2 wonderful pre-school daughters.

PHILOSOPHY

First, trust and thanksgiving to the Great Spirit for the wonder of being alive and having so many wonderful experience.
I say that time is my friend, I avoid haste and try to be active and relaxed at the same time...
I am more into "I dance, therfore I live" than "I think therefore I live" recently

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host and surf - that is the basics as the ground and the breath. I attended few CS meetings in Lodz, Warsaw, Szczecin and Brussels. I spread the idea whereever I can. I have hosted different couchsurefers and am grateful to be hosted by some of the community members.
I had some break in last years when I became father and we could not host with my partner but now I'm happy to be back :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoyed "Into the Wild" or Woody Allen's "Cassandra's Dream" or wonderful love story movies from India ("Lunchbox") or Bhutan (Bhutan Noir) but I am not a movie freak, I like some completative movies (Great Silence, Baraka) or good stories but I am sometimes to absorbed by real life stories and experiences that I do not need much movie stimulation.
From books I like stories and legends, reportage (Kapuscinski, Terzani, Marquez) and essays.
I like a lot Hrabal, and enjoyed last summer Zadie smith "White Teeth" Orhan Pamuk' s "Snow" or Geography of Happiness
Music: folk, jazz, rock, classical, ballads. I like Nick Cave, Dead Can Dance, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Antony and the Johnsons, Sigur Ros, Pink Martini, Manu Chao and Belarussian accordeon rock band called Gurzuf. From Polish music: Dikanda, Jacek Kleyff, my friend Pawel Czekalski, Antonina Krzyszton. Oh, nearly forgot to mention that I love to listen Leonard Cohen and was very happy to see him performing in Poland, october 2010.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Overcoming my fear and jumping from the cliff to the sea once in Ibiza?
Playing drums or singing loud folk songs in public trams?
Sleeping on sandy beaches?
Meditating in shopping malls?
Being able sometimes to distinguish what I feel from what I think?

A night time somewhere at Total station in France. I look for drivers to bring me where I want. A black mercedes van comes and two young guys in t-shirts walk out. They laugh and open the rear doors of the car. I feel cold "Sorri, we not taking living people" a guy says and knock in the coffin.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can lead a meditation for you, Laughter Yoga session, even an individual one, however works easier if there are more of us, teach you Contakids if you are a parent and have a kid available - that is a playful partnering and movement technique.
Or just share presence and listen.
