I am biochemistry researcher living in Chicago and trying to see a bit of the world.

Update: just quit my job and doing a road trip around US!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, one of the best parts of travelling is meeting local people and getting to know the country with their help.
I would be glad to do the same for any of You visiting Warsaw by showing You around.

Interests

I am the type of person who gets fixated on one thing and then leaves it, but there are a few hobbies in which I am persistent. The longest would be probably climbing. I train it for few years now, but I am not very good at it (my best climb is 7a+). I also like trekking, I try to visit mountains at least few times a year (they are quite far away from where I live). Recently I am trying to get into mountaineering. I was training last winter in Tatry (highest mountains in Poland).
