CURRENT MISSION To teach and to LEARN ABOUT ME After not so much travelling I decided to... come to China and teach English. Didn't know I would learn so many things myself, including finding out about couchsurfing. :) Right now I'm back in Poland, teach English (love it) and try to travel as much as possible.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING In China I've hosted a couple of people and showed some other ones around too. I've been hosted once too but hope it's going to change and I will get to know many more hosts while travelling! I'll try to host you when you visit Poznań, or at least we could hang out together. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Super positive! Through CS I've met really amazing people with interesting stories.
Music, Movies, and Books
Any music, movies, books that move me. Music: Post rock, electronic, multiinstrumentalist, acoustic, ambient, folk, jazz, Icelandic, poetic, singer-songwriter, music about something...

Movies: psychological, drama, good comedy, drama-comedy (Amelie, Last Tango in Paris, They shoot horses, don't they?, Cabaret, Piano, Breathless, American Beauty, Chocolat, Blue Valentine, Paris je t'aime, Into the Wild; Kim Ki Duk, Lars von trier, Woody Allen, the Coen Brothers, Krzysztof Kieślowski...) Books: psychological, making me think, making me feel (Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Steinbeck, Capote, Remarque, Murakami, Exupery, Cortazar, Plath, Dickinson, Ryszard Kapuściński...)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I worked with children in China, who, guess what?, turned out to be just the same like everywhere else in the world (samely inspiring).
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to learn about you.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can teach you how to cook and bake - or I can cook for you, or bake. And even better - exchange our cuisine experience. ;) We could also go for a nice, long walk with my dog Cola, and talk about travelling, teaching techniques, people, movies and whatever you like.
My Interests
People (that would include films, music, books, food, travelling and all that stuff, right?)
