Projects

The guiding pays the rent. These are the rest.

Stand-up comedy

Performing in Kraków, in more than one language.

Konrad has taken the microphone in Kraków and in Taipei: in pubs, in university halls, and on at least one election night. Ask him when the next set is, or check the socials in the footer.

Language teaching

Teaching languages, in more than one country.

Classrooms in Poland and in Taiwan, private groups, and a session explaining Polish Christmas to Taiwanese teenagers. Write with what you need and in which direction, and he will tell you whether it is a fit.

Academic research

Work that happens away from the walking tours.

The quietest of the three. Libraries and seminar rooms, on both sides of the world, on the questions that do not fit inside a two-hour walk. Ask him about it over a beer and set aside the evening.

Community initiatives

Two things Konrad runs in Kraków that are less about work and more about getting people in the same room.

  • Krak me up Comedy logo, a green dragon holding a microphone

    Krak me up Comedy

    Konrad's comedy project in Kraków, under a logo of a dragon holding a microphone, which tells you roughly what to expect. Ask him what is coming up.

  • Chinese-Polish Gatherings logo

    Chinese-Polish Gatherings

    Getting Polish and Chinese speakers into the same room, and letting them find out how much they have in common. Ask Konrad about it.
