About Me

An adventerous young guy with a fierce love for foreign languages, good books and pierogi ruskie!
Born and living in the beautiful city of Kraków, where I might be hosting you one day
I love discovering new things and I believe travelling and meeting new people are the best ways to do that
Not to forget about literature, films and art in general. These things can open a whole new world for you which is amazing
I'm a volunteer in Erasmus Student Network organisation and thanks to this I'm used to hanging out with people from various cultural background

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Probabably for the same reason you are here and that is to experience life at its best.
To meet new, inspiring people, travel a bit and make some cheerful memories for my old days.

Music, Movies, and Books

Just a few of them:
Bands: Arcade Fire, The Cure, Pink Floyd, Alt-J, Glass Animals, Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, The XX, Cigarettes after Sex and many more, according to my current mood.
Film: Forrest Gump is my favourite film since I can remember.
Books: When I think about the ones that have really touched me, these come to my mind: The little prince; Tove Jansson's novels; Lewis and Tolkien's works; The Egyptian; Animal Farm, Ferdydurke; Of mice and men; East of Eden; A world apart; Wind, sand and stars; Chew your nails every day; Walden; A Treatise on Shelling Beans: Gospel, Lord of the flies; The Karamazow brothers, many poems and at this point you probably stopped reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would say that the hitchhiking trip around Europe I went on last summer was perhaps the most amazing thing for me. Thank you Couchsurfing for this experience!
Other achievements may include crossing the Arctic Cicle, having made pierogi ruskie nobody died of or trekking alone in the mountains for a week .
