Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP58820) and 2 other sources
Michał Marcin Krówczyński, a 30-year-old math teacher from Kraków, Poland, was last seen on January 17, 2019, in San Diego, California. He had traveled to the U.S. for a vacation and was due to fly to Phoenix, Arizona, on January 18. However, Michał never boarded his flight, and no one has heard from him since. His last known location was near Bird Rock in La Jolla, where he posted a photo on social media just before disappearing. There are concerns that Michał may have had an accident in the rocky coastal area, potentially falling into a crevice or becoming incapacitated.

Friends and family, both in the U.S. and Poland, have expressed deep concern, urging local residents to search the area around Bird Rock, in case he is trapped or his belongings, such as a phone or backpack, are found. Despite search efforts, no substantial clues have emerged. The San Diego Police Department is leading the investigation, and Michał's disappearance remains a mystery.
