About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Professional: Finding methods of measuring information toxicity in the social space.
Private: Help people prepare for the Great Jubilee of 2033

ABOUT ME

Much of Ryszard's professional information, including papers and activities is on the webpage: www.stocki.org.

Klaudia is a pedagogue by profession but now she is a happy mother and housewife working at home. We have 7 adult children who live on their own.

PHILOSOPHY

We are absolutely convinced that all people are good but some of them do not know about it, others do not have time to show it to others, still others think that if they reveal it, others will not respect them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We were hosts many a time in the past. Recently the interest in couchsurfing slightly decreased. We would like to be guests some day. Unfortunately some attempts failed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As a student in summers, Ryszard worked for the Summer School of Polish Language and Culture. After the school ended he hosted several people in his parents' flat. We are coming back to this with our house.

Interests

In free time we try to dance tango, take pictures (mainly portraits) or ride my bike. In summer we kayak, and in free time hike.
We love reading historical books, diaries. Meeting new people is also a great fun. We do not have enough time for all of it.
