Tennis has given me an opportunity to travel the world and see many wonderful places. It has even provided me with a chance for a scholarship to one of the colleges in the US and let me live among wonderful people of Texas. As a player and later as a coach on both junior and professional circuits, I battled on many sites across the globe, I've been to many clubs and venues, and have met wonderful people all around. Success in a tennis match is one thing, but winning new friends for life and seeing amazing places is simply priceless — something I'd never trade for anything else. When I travel from point A to B I get as close to being free I possibly can, and that feeling transcends what I do professionally, who I am, and where I'm from. It's pure magic being able to move around, stick your nose out of your door, city, country, or even continent. I hope I never stop wandering.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing seems to me like going back to the very roots of traveling — you are dependent on your social skills, your ability to communicate with others, on how well you are able to adjust to a new situation. Also, you simply trust other people, someone you've never met before... and it works! All this brings back faith in human kind, doesn't it?

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
I once traveled on a Greyhound Bus from Birmingham, AL to Calgary, AB. It took me 66 hours, it was 2,500 miles long, but I've never regretted a single second nor a single inch of that Trip.
