People, who know me call me Oli.
I like having fun, visiting new places and living in the moment (seize the day and everything that goes with it).
I love music and I can't go without it. Songs I listen to in the morning set up my mood for the day and I think music has great influence on life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the best way to get to know the culture is by getting to know the people, who represent it, who carry it inside as part of who they are.
And this is basically what I'd like to do. No matter if it's by being a host or a guest, because the experience gained is for everybody.

Interests

I like reading books, meeting up with friends, watching TV series (Suits is my current favourite).
I like being outside, walking around places I don't really know. Getting lost few times on the way just to find my way out.
I like going to live gigs, really experiencing the music.
I've recently taken up pole dancing (also called pole fitness) and I love it!

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, when it comes to music it's pretty much everything, because it can go from rock to folk through electro and house. I'll name 5 bands/artists I've listened to recently: Damien Rice, James Blake, Disclosure, The Black Keys, Jamie N Commons

As for movies, I think I prefer to watch TV series than movies. Although Deadpool was quite funny.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to the US of A for a year with no friends or family there.
I'll add one more thing - sailing on Adriatic Sea

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe karma does exist (at least at some level), so I live by that rule as to don't do things you wouldn't like being done to you.
I believe in radical honesty. You don't like something - speak up. Otherwise no one will ever know. White lies, half truths, rationalizations and lies by omission are not the way anyone should follow.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Polish culture, although my cooking skills are not top notch. Laughter, some good stories and a good time in general.
