COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As I write, a feeling of gratitude wells up in me. Tomek, a stranger less than 24 hours ago, hosted me in the town of Lublin, my first CS experience. Thanks to this community I am meeting generous, open-minded and genuinely interesting people. Couchsurfing is social living, a way of life that embraces the other, the great fun and inspiration that comes from being around interesting people and the unexpected turns that your life takes from encounters with your surf mates.

Interests

From the very geeky (data visualization, poetry, reportage) to the popular (squash, running, newspapers, fooling around on the dancefloor). But more geeky things! I'm also a wanna-be trumpet player and sailplane pilot.

Music, Movies, and Books

It's not about typing out my list of favourites, but finding in coversation the scenes, harmonies and words that we'll enjoy together!
