ABOUT ME

Urban nomad and not-so-closet basket case.

Not very good at coloring inside the lines but I play well with others.

PHILOSOPHY

There's no such thing as too late.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined CS in 2007 while traveling through Europe, met up with wonderful CSers in Dublin, Paris, Budapest.. When I returned to the States I became more involved in local groups, events, hosting and logistics.

As to be expected, all of this keeps leading to more new, wonderful people, chats, cocktails and much, much mayhem.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed my way across America, parts of Europe and Central America attending gatherings, meeting up with other travelers and locals along the way.

All of my residences have served as caravansaries for waylaid (and wayward) travelers, even before this site existed. That being said, CS provides a most amazing forum for meeting truly outstanding human beings in a relatively secure environment.

Simply check my friends list for just some of the amazing people I've met through this project.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I'm amazed I've managed to live this long!

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

I have so much left to learn - like how to whistle, sail and walk in heels.

As for sharing, well, care to share a meal, pint, hike, anecdote, constructive argument, joke, art project, day in the park, or..?
