ABOUT ME

Hi Guys:) My name is Szymon, I come from Poland. It's hard describing yourself but I will try to do this in a few sentences. Relating on my friends opinions I'm an outgoing, talkative and helpful person. I enjoy meeting new people and exchanging experiences. I am open-minded and curious of how people from various cultures see things. I spend my free time on hanging out with my friends, learning foreign languages, running, reading and travelling of course. For living I work as an IT specialist in a multinational company.

I live Wrocław, Poland - the European Capital of Culture 2016

PHILOSOPHY

Seize the moment. Theres is no past, nor future. Only now matters.
“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the most essential and actually the only way to explore and undestand is to meet and stay with the local people. What I also love about travelling is the opportunity to try the local cuisine. I will be grateful if you show me where to eat well or if you don't mind we can cook together (I can do it quite well)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a spontaneous one-week trip to Italy without pre-booked accommodation. It was a short travelling experience in which I met a lot of cool people from 6 countries. That journey helped me to learn some new things about myself + I learned how to survive on very little budget ;)
