Hi there,
My name is Ignacy, and I am originally from Gdynia, Poland. I am currently studying Biology at Edinburgh Uni in the UK.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that this is a great way to meet new people and share different ideas. At the same time, I was always interested in doing it but never really tried till now.

Interests

• meditation
• hiking
• backpacking
• buddhist
• biology
• economics
• nature

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy the 70s music - Bowie, Led zeppelin, Eagles, Queen are some of my favourites. Louis Armstrong is very high on my list as well. As for the movies, I like Zorba the Greek and all David Attenborough nature series. From the recent ones I found Swedish Border as well as Avengers endgame quite interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The day after I turned eighteen, I decided to backpack the Balkans alone for a month. I was also a scout for 5 years and spent almost every summer having great adventures outdoors - a lot of hitchhiking, camping without tents, and outdoor games lasting for even 4 days ( they usually started by waking you up at 2 AM and giving you just a few seconds to pack all the necessary stuff ).

Teach, Learn, Share

I would really like to develop my basic conversational German and Spanish. I am interested in all kinds of conversations on topics ranging from philosophy to stem cells.

What I Can Share with Hosts
