Hi there! I became passionate with exploring cultures and meeting new people since I have completed my cultural exchange year in the USA. After that I visited the States couple times in order to explore as much States as possible and visit my friends! Moreover, later I started to work at the national flag-carrier airline, which also allowed me to visit new countries and immerse myself in new cultures. In 2017 I have graduated from Nazarbayev University (Astana, Kazakhstan) with a B.A. in Political Science and International Relations. Before studying PolSci, I used to be a medical student who planned to study biochemistry and apply for M.D. I love natural sciences, and I love humanitarian and social science stuff as well! Currently I am working at “Air Astana” Kazakhstani National Flag-carrier airline as a Government Affairs Officer. My professional background is 2 years at American Councils for International Education and 1.5 years at the European Union project “Enhancing Criminal Justice in Kazakhstan”. I am an open person, who can easily get in touch with people of different ages/backgrounds/experiences etc. Mostly, this is because I'm a nerd who is interested in everything, and loves sharing his knowledge and constantly learning new stuff! And I am always open for any adventures and activities. Starting from hiking, relaxing on a beach or visiting a museum and ending up with partying at bars/night clubs, and taking long walks around places!

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
Love the idea of hosting and couch-surfing. Was hosted by a lovely host family for a year and fully enjoyed my time there.
Muzyka, filmy i książki
Music - no specific genre. mostly hip-hop and pop, but I also listen to indie, rock, classical and other stuff as well. Movies - again, no specific genre, just everything good and popular. I love some movies even from 1930s. My main goal is to watch everything on the IMDB Top-250 list. But I also try not to miss new releases. I especially love movies that are based on some history and historical events, such as WWI, WWII, the Cold War, any other wars, Holocaust etc. I just love history and politics! Also, I love various TV series, including Sherlock, Elementary, THE WALKING DEAD, Mentalist, Air-crash Investigation and Mayday by National Geographic and my favorite - HOUSE M.D. I love it! Books - surprise surprise, but no specific genre :) I love Russian and French Classics, and especially I am a big fan of anti-utopias (dystopias), such as George Orwell's "1984", Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World", Alan Moore's "V for Vendetta", Yevgeny Zamyatin's "We", Anthony Burgess' "A Clockwork Orange" and "The Hunger Games"! And I love reading some scientific articles about infectious diseases, chemistry, civil aircrafts, airlines, history etc.!
