About Me

CURRENT MISSION

nothing in particular

ABOUT ME

Personally I am very keen on traveling and discovering different cultures and therefore can easily connect with other like-minded people.

I am not very keen on night clubs and discos but I can certainly point you to some on your visit.

While traveling I like to take my time to explore places. You may even say I am slow but I like to savour the process of discovery.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As your visitor I will respect your privacy, your schedules and your home. Through your introduction I will appreciate a deeper insight into your world.
I promise you the same once you will be my visitor. I speak several languages, especially I am fluent in Japanese and in English. I know the history and culture of my country quite well and will be proud to show it to you. Hopefully you will share some of my passions: music (classical, jazz, pop and modern), photography, electronic gadgetry and many others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

none yet. My place is small (hey, it's the capital!) but cozy and perfectly located for city exploration.

Interests

Active translator/interpreter of Japanese/Polish/English - trilingual. Besides those three I understand basic German and can converse in Russian. Languages were always misterious for me and I enjoyed and still enjoy learning them.

My jobs have taken me to a number of countries and I always am looking forward to getting to know new cultures and peoples. Had it not been for the love of languages I'd never visit so many amazing places I had a privilege of seeing.

My other passions are photography and music and I enjoy company of people that, like myself, will spend time enjoying nature and relax while actively listening to interesting music. My TV is usually switched off although I do occasionally watch DVDs or BlueRays.
