Am I really that which other men tell of?
Or am I only what I myself know of myself?
Restless and longing and sick, like a bird in a cage,
Struggling for breath, as though hands were compressing my throat,
Yearning for colors, for flowers, for the voices of birds,
Thirsting for words of kindness, for neighborliness,
Tossing in expectations of great events,
Powerlessly trembling for friends at an infinite distance,
Weary and empty at praying, at thinking, at making,
Faint, and ready to say farewell to it all.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

The best way of living a life is travelling. The best way of travelling is to meet locals and live a part of your life with them. I see treasure in meeting, seeing, smelling, feeling, tasting, talking, eating, drinking, partying with new people, unknown cultures at unknown seas, lakes, mountains, rivers and deserts. Couchsurfing seems to be the best option to get to this treasure as close as possible.

Books - I don't have a website for that :D I've been reading mostly political books lately (eg. Timothy Snyder, Naomi Klein, Jan Sowa). I have quite a collection of theology and religion-related books. When it comes to fiction I admit I haven't had much time lately for that, but I'd give some names - Eco, Konwicki, Wilde, Keret, Orwell.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I made a speech from a platform during this year's Equality Parade in Warsaw. The feeling of freedom mixed with an enormous stress and a view of hundreds of people cheering and listening to what I had to say - that was glamourous.

教，学，和分享

As much as possible. With and from open, accepting, smart and funny people.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

While travelling I can see a few ways to return the favour to the hosts. I could bring cheap cigarettes (not too eager), pay in sweets/food brought from home (quite eager) or pay in alcohol we'd dring together (very eager). I'd also cook something for the hosts at the spot.
