About Me

Hi there!
I am searching for truth and beauty. I am fascinated by creation of a nature, impressed by a complexity of human mind, admire an art and architecture. I see the world colorful however I notice meaningful stains of gray that leads to "headaches".
I graduated technical university. The field of studies covered wireless communication and the design of microwave devices. I work in the profession and I am happy about that because I like what I do. I belong to group of happy people that their work is simultanoeusly their hobby.
I am Polish and I feel closely associated with my nation and its history.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started travelling abroad in 2017. Since then my life changed quite much because I had an opportunity to get to know European culture for oneself. I have been using well known accomodation portal and usually I stayed in hostels. I see this really beneficial however most of the people I met in certain country were also from abroad - in other words I met only other travelers. I would like to take an advantage of couchsurfing as a source of people from a contry where I go. I hope it is going to help me understand people living in a region I visit and give me more widespread insight into reality of their life.
Basically, I'd like to use couchsurfing to just meet with people and by the way have an accommodation (despite I always do my bookings in hostels far before my coming).

Interests

I am amateur ice hockey player. I love this sport because it is the most paceful team game in the world. I find it technically difficult and physically demanding.
Fortunately, I live by the sea thus I have quick access to windsurfing. Probably I will learn it till my retiring... Another technically advanced sport...
Playing juicy jam-shred riffs is the best thing you can do in couple of minutes of spare time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I started with the Beatles and then I slowly turned to progressive rock. I dream about understanding jazz but as far I think that I have to "grow up".
Sometimes I listen to pop music. I find some artist really talented (like Sia) while other songs have got just a good beat.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking alone in the forest in the night? Accompanied by boars? Not fair enough idea, though.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First of all, I can share my time, exchange opinions, wide-understood experience, smile and happiness. I put emphasis on finding out cultural similarities and differences. My past travels show that there is significant chance to keep in touch with people I met for months.
