Hi, my name is Mateusz and I'm from Kraków. This is my hometown, so I know it quite well. ;)
At that moment, unfortunately, I can't host anybody in my house (just sometimes), but it would be pure pleasure to share my knowledge about my city and Poland at all; our culture, history and so on.

More about me...
I am totally passionate about music. Generally, all genres. Let's start from folk, through hardcore/punk and end on psytrance... or synth... or dark electro... or... dub... or... yeah ;) Right now, I am trying to learn russian, so I am diggin deep into russian scene. Vladimir Vysotsky, Bulat Okudżawa, Auktyon, Grupa Nol - it's absolutely classic. I am looking for more. :)
Also, I am bass and guitar player.

What is more, I am really interested in history - especially East Europe and Middle-West Asia. I really appreciate ability to share knowledge and history from different sides of the world.
Personally, I can manage some 'tour' around Nowa Huta (working class city, built by soviets; nowadays part of Kraków) and other, non touristic districts. For free, of course. Or rather, for another interesting stories from your country. :)
Please, keep in mind, it's always pure pleasure to show and talk about my hometown! Never hesistate to ask. :)

Also, I have to admit - I am a vegan, so if you are too, I can show you the best spots to eat in Kraków.

Well... if you would like to know something more - once again - don't hesistate to send me a message.
You all are always welcome.
