Hi!! I'm Pawel and I'm 25. I've quit my previous job in IT for the Au Pair program. I am currently in Bay Area, fulfilling myself as a male nanny :))
I love new challenges, meet new things, people and activities. I'm crazy about sports and there are plenty of them in my life (soccer, basketball, volleyball, running, gym, mountain hiking, etc.) I LOVE RIVALING
One of my passions is also traveling. I have hitchhiked Poland, Croatia, Greece, Switzerland, Portugal, Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
As I mentioned earlier I love competition, and combined with a passion for computer games has resulted in many hours spent in CS, LOL, etc. (but this is the past).
In my opinion, traveling is like an adventure game, with each minute as I hitchhike I get more and more drawn in repeatedly making decisions I may later regret, but it's all for the plot!
I'm also keen on astrophisics, quantum physics. I am no professor in this field, this topic is just super interesting for me and I'm excited about that there is still so much to discover in the world around us.
I love learning new sports. Recently I got into snowboarding, longboarding and surfing (which I'm crazy about and I want to improve my skills).
Some people finds me funny, IDK, but I can cook :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this app is great, I was using it before with my experienced travel companion ( s/o to Wiktoria <3).
I'm here to meet interesting people, exchange my views, culture and have a cool time :D
I believe that this form of travel and a direct clash with local people gives the best travel experience.
