About Me

CURRENT MISSION

During summer: London-Paris-Andorra-Barcelona-Monaco-Switzerland-Austria-Balaton-Budapest-Poland. I also want to hitchhike a boat!

ABOUT ME

After asking around:

"The most unorganised person on this university."

"Creative, with millions of ideas. Cheerful, maybe a little fucked up... but in a positive way! Hungry for adventures."

"Write some lies there. Tell them, that you are sociable, open-minded, that you don't stink, you are not a rapist and that you have no connections with mafia. And for God sake, don't tell them you played Brick-Jenga with me, cause they will ask you what it is!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only searching for a host so far. During my first journey we finally found a host in Norway, but my friend got sick and we couldn't use it. That was very disappointing.

Interests

Writing stories, long walks, reading books (especially fantasy), travelling, computer games. But most of the time, dreaming and thinking.

  • writing
  • books
  • boating
  • reading

  • socializing

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: high-fantasy and generally fantasy. But currently I'm filling the gaps in my knowledge of the history of the world (especially Europe and 20th century). Foreign writers: Tolkien, Tad Williams, probably some others but can't think of anything awesome now. Polish writers: Sapkowski, Ćwiek, Pilipiuk, I've also tried one book of Kapuściński and liked it a lot.

Lots of genders: Foo Fighters, The Beatles, Queen, Two Steps From Hell, Mumford and Sons, Gogol Bordello, but mostly single songs of loads of random bands.

Movies: Sherlock Holmes, The Lord of The Rings, Matrix, Fight Club, Eurotrip, Forest Gump, The Avengers, Wall Street: Money never sleeps, Into the storm, King's speech.

I'm a big fan of The Simpsons and Scrubs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That would be things which changed my way of thinking. Writing my first story and starting to travel. Why? Because they were the first ideas, which seemed extremely stupid before I made them real. Travelling - seems impossible till you try it. So does the parachute jump (done it!).

That would be two achievements I'm very proud of, and I can't overrate the way they influenced my life - they made me live it.

On those two achievements I base the belief, that impossible in nothing (no advertising :D).

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting travelers. I can listen for hours when I meet people, who share my hunger for adventures, especially those who are more experienced than me.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Greece, Luxembourg, Netherlands
