Hi good people over there! I'm Paweł and I come from Świdnica, a small and quite charming town 60 km from Wrocław. I moved to Wrocław more than a decade ago to study there. I studied sociology and a bit of philosophy. I really like Wrocław and I keep re-discovering it all the time. Also the city constantly evolves and provides massive amount of great cultural events. It's hard to be bored here.
I like the vibe of big cities, especially my beloved Berlin and - recently - Bangkok where I spent some days and fell in love with this mega-city. But I enjoy travels to nature as well, like forests and mountains or more tropical surroundings.
I like meeting new people, speding some enjoyable time together and improving my understanding of the world by hearing their stories.
In my free time I chill with friends, read books (literature or humanities), watch movies and lately - train kick-boxing.

Music, Movies, and Books

In your request for hosting please write the title of your favorite book.
Widely understood rock and metal music, e.g bands like: David Bowie, Lou Reed, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Sisters of Mercy, Joy Division, The Cure, Bauhaus, Tool, Rage Against The Machine and many others. Plus some heavier playing groups like Metallica (albums from 80's), Morbid Angel, Deicide, Rotting Christ, Inquisition, Moonspell, Mgła, Xasthur and many others.
Sometimes I enjoy listening to some desert blues, good techno, free jazz and different sorts of experimental (or just weird:) music. Especially when it's being played live!

I like some movies by Ingmar Bergman, Lars von Trier, Francis Ford Coppola, David Lynch, Michael Haneke or Pier Paolo Passolini, and some other classic directors.
But I like also some less known pieces like 'The Brand Upon the Brain!' by Guy Maddin; 'Damnation' by Bela Tarr; 'Tetsuo' by Shin'ya Tsukamoto.
Generally dark, nihilistic, intelectual, sometimes experimental movies.
Cyber-punk as well.

Some of memorable books I read could be: 'The Trial', 'The Castle' and some other pieces by F. Kafka; 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' by G. G. Marquez; 'The Red and the Black' by Stendhal; 'The Brothers Karamazow' by F. Dostoevsky; some texts of Charles Bukowski, David Foster Wallace
