My name is Nick, and I’m currently looking for a new couch-experience. I'm studying International Relations at Jagiellonian University in Kraków (but I'm colloquially always saying that I'm a Political Scientist student). Since I got really interested in our socio-political environment, social sciences became a part of my daily routine and a great object of interest.

There is definitely something special in getting to know someone you just met, someone who has a different history, experience and maybe culture. In fact, we all are so different, and this is the most thrilling thing to share thoughts and emotions with others. I also like reading all sort of literature (which might be obvious, but really crucial to keep yourself up to new ideas and extend thinking horizon), watching movies, studying history, geography, sociology and learning about different cultures and peoples around the world(I believe it is something that can make us, people, more close to each other, and more open to something we afraid of, that we do not know, and thus consider as a danger). I guess, I’m a sort of person who is interested in everything, which is good, but then you cannot really focus, on one specific thing.

Quote, that correlate with my lifestyle the most:

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.
It matters that you don't just give up.”
― Stephen Hawking

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to learn people, learn new culture, travel, and develop myself. I'm curious about everything and everyone and thus see Couch as a powerful tool that can redistribute some "new quality" among people.

Crazy ideas, big words, positive emotions and tons of other things. No matter how much I can offer, I do this candidly from my heart. Actually, you should decide on your own, at the end of the day everyone who comes, comes for some reason...we all teach each other something.
