PHILOSOPHY

Ab alio expectes, alteri quod feceris

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to host and to be hosted!

When it comes to hosting: please, please, please! If you intend to send me a Couchsurfing request, may I kindly ask you just for two things:
1) since copy-paste requests absolutely do not fit into my vision about this community, instead of "Hello Maciej" at the beginning of the message, please place the phrase: "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!". This way I am sure you have at least made the effort to read my profile ;-) and if this made you smile, you can be sure we both share Monty Python's sense of humor
2) it would be great if you make the request a bit personalized (i.e. write why you want to stay with me)
...otherwise please expect a decline or no answer at all.

Interests

Music! A world without music would be just monophonic.. but fortunately it is multidimensional
Photography - it's another indisputable passion: you can find some artifacts of it at: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mrydzy/

Music, Movies, and Books

For listing all the music it won't be enough space. Let's just mention
- Antimatter
- Anathema
- Porcupine Tree
but there are many, many more...
The ones we can listen together to, are listed under https://www.discogs.com/user/maciej.rydzy/collection?sort=artist&sort_order=asc&limit=250

Movies which I will certainly get back to:
- The Straight Story by David Lynch
- Godfather by F.F. Coppola

About books list I'm still thinking of one. There's so many of them!
[update] recently could not stop reading "Shantaram" by Gregory David Roberts - it's totally addictive
