About Me

Motto:
My goal is to be a smile-millionaire. Make a million smiles appear on people's faces because of me.

I'm person who like spend time on creative way. I like to do something, what will be a great story to told somebody.
On the other hand I like maps. It can be sounds strange, but I like watching various types of maps from pretty normal google maps, through artistic map or maps showing some interesting stats, to maps of fantastic worlds or also maps created only for a jokes ;)
Ok, time for other facts of me. My life revolves around games. Especially making games. When I was 12 I knew that I want to create video games in the future and now I'm doing that. I think that games are a field of art with the most promising opportunities to influence people's emotions. And I want to create games, which make people happier.
I like also play board games, I try to learn play on guitar, I like to dance and sing, but people like it when I sing, only if they're drunk :D I like rollerblading, hitchhiking, and I love to lost in wikipedia's articles.

A few years ago I also started my youtube channel with movies about some curiosities… and I release only one episode, with many others stucked in WIP phase. Anyway, maybe someone will like it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I believe that the best part of traveling is meeting new people. People can give us incredibly many new ideas, new views of the world and new adventures.
Couchsurfing sounds like an ideal way of traveling for me, so I want to try.

Music, Movies, and Books

music - I listen to a very wide range of genres, so easier for me is to count what I didn't like... ok I cannot count. If I can't listen to some kind of music, then I try to drink more and listen to it again. If it doesn't work... ah, you know that :P Usually, I prefer more powerful genres like rock, punk, metal, etc.

FIlms - sci-fi, fantasy, comedy, musicals, action films. It's hard to watch horror with me because, in this kind of movie, I would like to comment on everything :D

Books - I like to read something that expands my knowledge about the world, like biography, popular science, or specialistic book (like Walter Isaacson's "Innovators" and "Steve Jobs"; or Y. N. Harari's "Homo Deus" and "21 Lessons for 21st Century"; or Bill Gates's "How to avoid a climate disaster").
On the other hand, my favorite genres of fiction books are sci-fi and fantasy (like Lem's or Philip K. Dick's novels, or the Witcher series).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I traveled around Europe by hitchhiking three times (2500km to Edinburgh, 4200km around the Western EU, and 5500 km around the Baltic Sea)
- I drove alone by car from Katowice (Poland) to Athens (Greece) and back. It’s around 2000km just on one way… and during 1500km of them I had to brake by gears, due to broken brakes.
- I created an animation that was shown at the Cannes Film Festival.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to create something cool like game (not only video game!), short movie or music video.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Firstly, I can spend time with you and try to be as good an interlocutor as I can. Also, I have a long playlist of well-known songs with subtitles to sing easier.
