Interested in Beauty, wherever it is present, and - obviously, regarding my professional occupation - literature, languages - especially from cultures still underrepresented in the European perception

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As it should be: to get to know people, to spend time with them, to learn and to teach - but nothing specific: the most miraculous things happened to me when I did not expect them, same goes for meeting people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being the "mediator" between a host and a friend and becoming their child's godfather in the end

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: German; Polish (for non-polish speakers since I learned the language myself); cooking my three favourite dishes

Learn: Maybe jokes? I wish I knew some "international" jokes I could tell in every suitable and non-suitable situation; languages; empathy (which has to be renewed all the time, otherwise it might rust)

Share: Laughter, meals and hope

What I Can Share with Hosts

Our modest space in an 1.5 room-flat, you could sleep on an inflatable mattress...

Share: Look previous question
