Overview
About Me
ciao🤙🏼
straight outta krakow, poland 🇵🇱
a spicy foods lover🌶️ and a certified juggling ninja🤹🏼🥷🏻
you'd probably find me catching some waves or swimming in whatever water is close by 🏊♂️
---------------
when i grew up my friends and family told me i'm too nerdy. i decided to challenge myself to get out of comfort zone every day a bit. i joined this app and started great journey with amazing people around.
i made the following list after meeting tons of travelers who inspired me👀
rather than fixed plan it's more an idea-list to share, a package of accomplishments to show my younger self what's possible and memories tracker for old me to look when I'm bored working on some project which takes too long of spacetime 📃
in case there is someone willing to help or join on the way feel free to hit me up📞

▶️ life log
globetrotting 🌍🌎🌏 began with cycling trips 🚲 around poland and germany. i was very shy, uncomfortable with moving out and speaking to other humans. but then my neighbor took me out for cycling trips and my exploration has begun
all sprinkled by good people from work, scouting ⚜️ and school exchanges 🏫🔄 which I'm grateful to experience
by the end of high school I lived with buds from canada, hungary, italy, france, germany, and finland, opening my mind to diverse cultures🧠
in 2018 discovered couchsurfing. i worked as a tourist guide and started working towards exploring the world with great people on the way
during the pandemic ('20-'21) i moved to portugal, living solo on an island in the middle of atlantic. a total game-changer and humbling experience when everyone is far bcs of covid 🌊🏝️
back to poland to work my life out, go uni, work night jobs, starting some hustles and coding in between
for summer '22 i went to catch some waves and soak up the sun along the west coast, from cali to canada 🏖️🌊🏄♂️. meanwhile working on robotic project and starting my own business. both failed successfully💀. for living i worked on local ranch training horses somehow not being trampled 🐴
'22-' 23 back to warsaw. adventuring into tech with polish and turkish friends. coding and working hard to get scholarships and save money from business to move to asia
'23-24 out to singapore and se asia. i went for an exchange at ntu designing chips💾, exploring the jungle nightlife📷🐍, pottery and attending cooking masterclass👨🏼🍳. all with training aquathlon and startup work to sustain myself. it was a big change when diving into the city's vibe and finding new adventures 🏙️🎉
2025 update:
half of 20's gone. i learned a lot🔥💀
back to Poland to start up my life with coding, training and time with fam after a few years of staying apart. looking for a great crew ready for sail through storms, dive in murky waters and climb unknown summits 🚂⚒️
humbly awaiting what today will bring
