CURRENT MISSION Be a good person, a good dad, a good husband, a good civil servant, a good descendant, a good ancestor. ABOUT ME I love connection. With people, the natural world, culture, history, the built environment. I'm passionate about growing things. I also enjoy listening to music and reading. I enjoy being around other people, especially my family. I value community, simplicity, spirituality, justice, and living a deeply happy life. I try to live it in such a way that helps the people around me to thrive and allows all the people who come after me to thrive too.
I like to run and do yoga. My goal is to participate in a 24 hour running event. Currently my life is occupied with grad school, research, and work. I love novelty. New places, new people, new experiences. There are many lifetimes of things to do in the world and I hope to fill up mine.
** All great literature is one of two stories,... a man goes on a journey or a stranger comes to town." -Leo Tolstoy- My life right now: Travel as much as I can. I am a continuous student of the universe and never ending researcher on the human condition. Always interested in meeting fellow travelers. I love hiking, sight-seeing a new city, and experiencing the life of the local people. When traveling I love volunteering in Workaways and have done so at seven great organizations in Thailand, Vietnam, Morocco, South Korea, Laos, and Nepal. Worked jobs as an English teacher, hostel and hotel reception, bartender, and in a buddhist commune.
If I’m not open to host, feel free to hit me up for recommendations on things to do in MKE! ***If you're requesting a couch, please read through the info about "my home" as I have some special considerations. I only respond to messages where this was done since I believe CS is about seeking connections people who are a good fit for your travel adventures. I prefer to open my home to those who want to spend time exchanging stories and sharing experiences. ABOUT ME I love learning about other cultures and seeing first-hand what life is like in different areas. The world is a big beautiful place and I wish I could spend all my time exploring it. I'm a humor-loving lady who has a save-the-world complex. I tend to over-hyphenate often but not really, just checking to see if you're actually reading my profile. I'm pretty busy trying to do everything that interests me, so you'll find me either in a state of go-go-go or taking a much needed relaxing break. PHILOSOPHY Not too much, not too little--life is about balance and compromise. And you should always be up for learning, improving, and growing as a person because let's face it, nobody knows everything so it's best to work out the solution together. "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration" "We get high on all types of drug, when all you really need is love"

Jak Walter Maliszewski Polish-American Milwaukee, Wisconsin INSTAGRAM - Jak.walter (travel photos and animal photography) Sorry, not facebook or twitter. Animal lover, conservationist, and avid traveler. I've worked with animals and been a part of research all over the world. I teach about animal behavior, conservation, and wildlife. I really enjoy being outdoors, being active, and seeing new animals around the world. Also an artist who works in illustrations, digital paintings, and design. Love painting and drawing. Photography is a big part of my life. I create wildlife photography as well as nude-nature portraits. Equally parts funny and serious, I enjoy good banter and conversation about current events. Lgbt friendly, I believe in equality and treating everyone with respect. I hold no discrimination or prejudice against people and hope to only meet people who feel the same way.
Photographer, outdoor guide, teacher, and writer. Kind, empathetic, curious, artsy, and great sense of humor.
Entrepreneur with a curious mind and a passion for building things, learning constantly, and meeting interesting people. I’m into technology, good food, spontaneous adventures, and experiences that turn into great stories. I value open-minded people, positive energy, and a life that feels a little unpredictable. I’d rather collect stories than things, and I’d rather take the risk than spend my life wondering “what if?”
Caffeinated Man, Cooks and Eats Tasty Food. Has Passport Will Eat! That is a haiku.. A few other notes: Vaccinated! If you wouldn’t mind in your couch surfing request please provide the time you are arriving and leaving. Thanks !
I'm an adventurous and open-minded person, always looking to learn and grow. I have a wide range of interests, and I love trying new things! Life is a playground. I follow the vibes where they take me and do my best to always pay it forward. The world is a beautiful, scary, amazing place, and we can make it better together. When the universe brings us together and our energies align, our shared experience shines through us to illuminate our humanity. We are all mirrors to each other. I would love to get to know you! ^^Wrote this awhile ago now but it still rings true. I've been traveling full-time since August 2024 (yes, with the kiddo 😊 - this is why I'm not hosting at the moment). I love life, and I love people. Let's go exploring!
CURRENT MISSION To see the world and have great traveling experiences ABOUT ME I enjoy traveling and have been to many countries. I have summer and Christmas holidays off, therefore, I have the time to go and explore the world. I teach at a technical college, and also work at a homeless shelter. PHILOSOPHY Traveling and meeting diverse people is the ultimate experience! Always treat everyone with the greatest respect, and never consider yourself above (or for that matter) below anyone else!
I live for connection and cherish the bonds I quickly develop with people. Through Couchsurfing, I made friends around the world 10 years ago, and I'm still in touch with many of them today. There's something about staying in someone's home that breaks through the awkward, boring small talk and lets you dive right into sharing stories, laughs, and finding commonalities. These days I keep busy as the owner of a Milwaukee game store called The Mana Vault -- you'll love it if you're into Magic: The Gathering or Pokémon! I can't promise I'll have time to hang out during your stay, but I'd love to if our schedules line up. When I'm not working and growing our gaming community, you can find me on long walks with Gobi, my 2-year-old Boston Terrier; cooking vegan meals; or seeking out live EDM and jazz shows. I also appreciate a good cocktail and 420 fun. New experiences are great, but I'm just as happy doing nothing as long as I'm in good company -- a good conversation is worth more to me than anything else. También me gusta aprender y hablar español!
Ahora mismo estoy viviendo en el norte de Tenerife, cerca de las montañas de Anaga. Disfruto del mar, el ejercicio (tanto deportes en aire libre como en un gimnasio), tranquilidad como yoga o un buen libro, y para equilibrar todo con una buena fiesta en el finde semana. Puedo bailar por muchas horas seguidas a varios géneros de musica. Estoy enseñando ingles y español en un colegio publico y a través de clases particulares para buscarme la vida. En los últimos 7 años, he empezado a viajar mucho, tratando de quedar en cada lugar para mas tiempo con la meta de conocer a los lugareños donde estoy. Currently I'm living close to the mountains of Anaga in the north of Tenerife. I enjoy spending time by the ocean, exercising (outdoor sports as well as in the gym), tranquility like yoga or good book, and to balance everything off a good party on the weekend. I can dance for hours to many different genres of music. I'm teaching English and Spanish in a public school and through private lessons to get by. In the last seven years, I have began to travel a lot, trying to stay in each place for enough time with the overall goal to get to know those that inhabit it.
