About Me

In statu nascendi - the best description.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To create a little gap through which people could enter into a world where I live - and vice versa.

Interests

I am involved mainly in philosophy. I am preparing a book about cryptotheological dimension of Hannah Arendt's secularism. For me it is not only academic work, but essentially a lifestyle. I mean that reading, writing, thinking and living are inseparable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived?

What I Can Share with Hosts

All I can share, I think, is what is deposited in my experiences. And those are vast. I came from a small village in the southeastern part of Poland (in the lands of former Galizien or Galicja), where I could see how traditional peasant culture was perishing, not having been aware that what I saw were the last echoes of archaic times. Then I moved to Warsaw, the capital city, to study, where I met the ethos of Central and East European intelligentsia. Not to mention other currents... As a result, my provenance obliges me to complexity. I try to intiate connections betwen different parts of me, hoping to participate into something new, something that the future would desire (or, is desiring, unconsciously).
