ABOUT ME
I'm a self-confident, outgoing person with a wacky sense of humour (quite sarcastic, with a big dose of self-deprecation ;).
I graduated from International Business at the University of Economics in Wroclaw, and now I'm working as an analyst in an international company. I had also finished music high school with a professional title of a musician, specialist of cello, before I went to the University. I used to hold positions in different NGOs, I'm currently a member of the management board of the Chorda Auxit Foundation for Promoting Music Culture.
I do many things in life, I'm a quite busy and hard-working person, but I know how to have fun :).
I love to eat. You can surely try some truly Polish cuisine with me. I cook, I used to work in various restaurants for quite a long time as well. Being a good cook and coming from a country with good cuisine would be considered an asset, when you're trying to surf with me ;). I love to drink as well - so bringing a wine or spirit typical for your country is ESSENTIAL :))).
Usually there are a lot of different foods in my fridge, so if you're vegetarian, ayurvedic, diabetic or anything, it's not a problem. If you have some special diet, let me know before coming, I'll go to the supermarket and/or veg market and make supplies. I'm currently on a low-carbohydrate diet, thus there's no sugar at my house, but I may organise some for you.
I'm a Catholic, but the only difference in cuisine is that I don't eat meat on Fridays. Also, I go to church every Sunday, and it's absolutely not possible for me to host you during Christmas and Easter along with Good Week. If you came during Lent we wouldn't have much fun, because I'm quite strict about no partying during that time :) (March 1 - April 17, 2017).
I don't care if you're an "infidel". If you think it may be wrong for you to be hosted by a Catholic, it's entirely your problem.
I simply LOVE music. You have to bring music from your country to be hosted by me :D.
btw. yes, I speak all those languages. This is not a joke. It's the Moravian variant of Czech :)
PHILOSOPHY
Laissez-faire, traditional Catholic, solipsist (egocentric! ;). I don't mind people with different points of view, but I do not like if someone is trying to convince me to anything by force or people who get offended or easily upset by my views. I love to exchange opinions, though :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'd rather surf than host. I have a couch, but I'm a bit too busy sometimes... However, I'm always ready to have a conversation about hosting and I've already hosted some people :))).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once hit a herd of wild vietnamese pigs while driving a car. One of the pigs flew ca 5 metres to the other end of the road. This was quite disturbing, especially that I had fur and blood all over the front of my car... :P
Well I also had a scientific monograph published at the age of 24 :). The title is "Free market and the socialism of the 21st century", and it's about the economic policies of Chile and Venezuela.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some Polish. I can tell you much about Polish culture, history, society, and especially economy. I can teach you to cook Polish food. I'd be happy to enjoy a political and economic conversation, exchanging views ultimately helps everybody to learn something :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Interesting conversation on many different topics :). And whatever foodstuff or drink you may want from Poland.
