About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life goes by and I don't wanna waste it for boredom

ABOUT ME

Born and grown up in Cracow, Southern Poland - the city of Polish Kings. One of the biggest and the best place in Poland. I'm studying at AGH Academy of Science and Technology in Cracow. I consider myself as a little bit crazy and unpredictable person but I'm optimistic, friendly and open-minded guy.
I used to be Human Resources Manager and then the President of the local ESN section (Erasmus Student Network) at my University. Now getting more involved on the higher level what brings me much fun and satisfaction. If you're going to study on my Uni maybe I'll be your mentor!

I love music, hanging out with my friends, playing football, working for my student organization and traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Every life is a story - Try to make yours best seller!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cannot host anyone cause I live in a very small apartment far from the centre what I really regret. One day it will be changed! Just surfing by now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

On October 2010 I went to Alicante with a bunch of friends and we stayed there with Erasmus guys for 2 nights. By CS I contacted with Wendy from France and Milla from Finland. These was so great experience that I decided to travel with CS more often!
March 2011 - I went to Paris and stayed with Sasha for a cuple of days with a bunch of friends.
November 2011 - Madrid and hosted by Mylene from France - another great traveler!
Later on used to hang out in Cracow.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: A lot of! Generally the classics of the cinematography. Let's mention The Shawshank Redemption, The Godfather, Tim Burton's. From TV series not that many but for sure HIMYM, South Park and The Big Bang Theory.

Music: Many various, I prefer certain songs than following the bands but for sure I admire much The Beatles, Kings of Leon, Crystal Castles, The Kills, Mumford and Sons, The Coldplay, also sountracks from movies (everything made by Danny Elfman, hmmm Hans Zimmer's, and of course from Disney's movies!), Arctic Monkeys, Florence & The Machine, Nirvana, MGMT, Oasis, Beirut, RHCP, Jónsi, Adele, Kasabian, others.

Books: I like 'The Master and Margarita' by Mikhail Bulgakov, earlier I read 'Ferdydurke' by Witold Gombrowicz. I enjoyed also 'Crime and Punishment' by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Recently I've been reading boring technical books a lot for exams at my Uni. Actually I'm more into some books about power of self-motivation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During holidays in 2010 I was traveling across the Balkans. I joined my friends who went earlier in Burgas, Bulgaria and then we went through Greece, Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and finally back home.
