Huh, you sounds like a pretty average-sized guy (after I converted it into Amerikkkan, lol).
If you're aiming to bulk up, I think you should intake 2500 - 3000 calories. You don't lift weights every day, do you? If not, then you should stay closer to 2500 rather than 3000. Get your protein through lean meats and legumes such as lentils. Complex carbs are also good for a bulking diet, but don't overdo it if your activity doesn't match up with your intake (only you can properly determine that).
I also can't stress enough the importance of eating your vegetables. I know those don't seem condusive to a weight gain diet, but the B vitamins will really help you have energy. The fat from dairy products will help you not only bulk up, but also provide calcium and vitamin D.
Most importantly, though, give your muscles a day to rest after each visit to the gym.
