About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working on my Ph.D. and other scientific projects on new media.

ABOUT ME

I am a Ph.D. Student in the field of culture studies (University of Lodz, Poland), I travel a lot and I am a very open-minded and warm-hearted person. Well, a little bit of a geek too :) Regardless of my nerdy nature and geek chic fashion choices, I adore meeting new people, seeing new things and experiencing new places. Life is an adventure :)

PHILOSOPHY

In general, live and let live. In detail, I admire David Hume and the modern philosophy of mind.

Geeky things, of course. Videogames, science-fiction, fantasy, movies, art, history, culture... and analytic philosophy (no really, it's fascinating).
