PHILOSOPHY

A young man without power or money is completely free. He has nothing, but he also has everything. He can travel, he can drift. He can make new acquaintances every day, and try to soak up the infinite variety of life. He can seduce and be seduced, start an enterprise and abandon it, join an army or flee a nation, fight to preserve an existing system or plot a revolution. He can reinvent himself daily, according to the discoveries he makes about the world and himself. But if he prospers through the choices he makes, if he acquires a wife, children, wealth, land, and power, his options gradually and inevitably diminish. Responsibility and commitment limit his moves. - Mark Bowden, the Atlantic, May 2002

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i couchsurfed a bit in argentina this summer and now i want to give back to the community. so feel free to stop by my couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since I'm new here, I don't have any experiences yet. But a few years ago, my parents let a homelesss couple and their baby stay on our couch for a few weeks. They were really nice, but when they left, they took a keyboard, our van, and a lot of money with them. I'm sure couchsurfing will be a better experience.

Zainteresowania

1. playing piano or guitar (I travel w/ a backpacker's guitar) and singing my heart out in a stairwell or alleyway or anywhere that echoes.
2. Using my Nikon D40 or my point-and-shoot Canon to document the universe around me.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)
