CURRENT MISSION

to enjoy and share Warsaw as I'm back!

ABOUT ME

- I just cannot focus on doing single thing. That refers to my studying/working/sport/aestethic sense
- just want to have friends on each continent.
- sometimes I DO TALK TO MUCH
- even though I love political/beliefs/religious discussion I hate to be too radical, when someone might feel hurt

PHILOSOPHY

Pfff, do you reallly wanna to hear this? I mean.. basically I'm really into existentialists (Kier-ke-gaard!) because I believe that's no matter what goal you have, the most important is to focus on it and start to work hard on it. That's waaay better that loosing your life with hesitating about direction you should follow.
Also, I'm a catholic and I TRY to behave like one.

And now for real:
I don't trust people aiming at having an explanation for everything. In my case being an open-minded person is strongly associated with an empathy. I am trying to develop an ability to understand (or at least trying to do so) and follow others' man thoughts, no matter what kind of beliefs, origin, political views the person have. Each of us have it's unique story and there are many ways of revealing it.. I guess that's why I'm so into ethnography - it simply makes it easier to meet others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not that much, I mean I love travelling and had the experience with asking people for place to sleep "live" (Bike trips to Romania&Bulgaria in 2008, to Norway in 2010 etc).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

a) yellowish deserts of Morocco seen from the frozen peak of Toubkal (4167m).. and lovely slide down on a plastic bag below my Arsch from there ;)
b) double-experience of wandering through ruins in Palmira, Syria and the rays of sum that caught us in the middle of tetrapylon.

Teach, Learn, Share

what I can teach you:
- basics of mirror-cam & digital photography, some hints
- blogging & Internet - how to create a blog, tools & skills needed and how to learn them,
- prepare you to visit the regions I've been too
- discuss an evolution of ethnography since beginning to nowadays (I think it's useful to know how people used to conceive other's and how did it change)
- fixing your bike
