About Me

I am not that good when it comes to writing about myself, so i'll try to introduce you some facts and feelings in a simple way.

- I work as a Java Software Engineer and i love this job. I dreamed about being computer specialist in anyway since i was 8 y/o and i got my first PC. The dream came true. ;)

- I am socially aware and I hope I will be remembered as a helpful and empathic person by people who know me.

- I am a socialist, but definitely not radical in any way.

- I love meeting new people because of their stories and experience.

- When I am outside my city i enjoy looong walks.

- I am very shy when i meet new people for the first time, but after a little chat i
become an extravert. ;)

- I am learning Swedish, cause i would like to move there one day.

- I want to speak fluently in at least 4 foreign languages before i 'll be 35.

- I am a realist.

- I love visiting old cemeteries when I am on a city trips abroad.

- Lack of travel makes me miserable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friends have met many fantastic people and traveled all around the world using the couchsurfing. I was always too shy to try that and now's the time to change it!

Interests

My main interests are:
- politics - especially left side of political scene
- history - in general
- new technologies - a must for software developer
- ethnic and folk music - because it allows me to travel to the all corners of the Earth while I'm sitting on the couch
- computer games - my favourite way to waste my free time
- urban exploration - i love the thrill that visiting the abandoned places gives me

...and last but not least...

- travel - because it allows me to feed my heart, mind and soul :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:

My music taste is quite an eclectic one. I listen to many different genres: techno, drum and bass, folk/ethnic music, progressive rock/metal, industrial, indie rock, electronic dance music, disco, pop and many more.

If you want to know the details visit my Last.FM profile. Maybe it's not so up-to-date these days, but gives a general view of my preferences. :)

Movies:

When it comes to film it's hard to tell if there's one genre I like. The ones that give me the most satisfaction when watching them are the ones with complex characters and lots of plot twists. If you want to know more about which movies specifically i liked or disliked visit my Filmweb profile:

Books:

I enjoy all kinds of non-fiction literature: biographies, political and historical stuff, popular science. My little problem is - I started reading a lot quite recently. Because of that I appreciate every recommendation. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have climbed to the top of abandoned lighthouse, even though i am sooo afraid of heights. I really can't believe i did it...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you computer programming and Polish language. Also if you'll be interested I can introduce you to the world of geocaching/opencaching and urban exploration. :)

I would love to learn new languages and know more about your local history, culture and... food! :D
