Talkative, open-minded guy, hungry for adventures, making new friends and TRAVELING! Living in Środa Wielkopolska, POLAND Graduated from Poznan University of Technology in 2017 and working as a production specialist since then. Sounds like a pretty normal and routine life, huh? Well guess what - I quit my job after working there for a year and now I'm planning at least a half-year trip around South-East Asia with my gf!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I've been travelling around Europe and USA. I've stayed mostly at hotels, hostels etc and I thought that these are best places to stay when you're travelling. Last summer I realised how wrong I was. I stayed in Croatia at a native house so I had a chance to get to know much more about croatian culture, habits and cuisine (which is unbelievable by the way!). Since that moment I decided to try staying at local people's houses to know more about them, their culture and their countries.
Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes to music I'd have to say that I don't have some favourite kind of it. I'm listening to music everyday and there are many songs that I just love. But if someone asked me about my favourite band I woudn't need much time to consideration - Red Hot Chili Peppers. Since I don't have much spare time, I don't watch many movies but if I had to choose my favourite one it would be The Green Mile with Tom Hanks for sure.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
1. Spent 3 months in USA 2. Took a criuse to Bahamas Islands 3. Went for a 3-week-long Balkan trip by hitch-hiking with my girlfriend! We visited Hungary, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Albania!
Teach, Learn, Share
It's funny to teach foreigners Polish language. People say that polish is the third most difficult language to learn after Chinese and Hungarian but I always give it a try when I'm abroad :) I can talk about automotive for hours!
What I Can Share With Hosts
Bunch of great attitude, openness and my experience that I gained during all of my journeys.
My Interests
I'm really keen on athletics. I was training running for 6 years so that is the reason of it. I was a sprinter and I run 110 meters hurdles which is very tricky sport because it combines both speed and technique. Besides I was studying Management and Production Engineering for the last 5 years and I find it extremely interesting, especially my laboratory studies.
