ABOUT ME

Well so far I had pretty exiting life. Growing up in a communist country where I wasnt even able to have a passport now I'm just taking the most of it. I really enjoy my lifestyle and the freedom of living in different countries. I cant see myself staying in one place I want to have a nomadic life forever:) Until November 2012 together with my boyfriend Bryan we were based in Dunedin (NZ) where we were studying me Photography and Bryan Environmental Management. Between December'12 and July'13 we will be traveling around the world so no couch available but we might be living in Queenstown next year so give us a shout:)

PHILOSOPHY

Hakuna Matata!(Swahili phrase: "There are no worries")
Mark Twain:
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

So pretty much I'm trying to live life & enjoy every second of it, take any chance I have on my path, explore everything what I can explore, take the risks and most of all runaway from any rutine even if its amazing. Life is too short to do the same thing all the time:)Explore. Dream. Discover!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list them all but I always loved world or tribal music from different parts of the world. I adore all Putumuyo music! and anything what sounds ethnic.
The movie would be definetly Amelie, Frida, Baraka and all the independent international cinema as well as art movies and environmental documentaries. I recently watched HOME three times in a row! Its stunning and extremely inspiring!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left my beloved home country-POLAND and started to explore the world:)I dont only travel but Im also trying to live in different countries to experience other cultures and hang around with local people:)Every place I have been so far have something unique to offer and they are very different from each other. Definitely my trip to India was eye opening experience and I look at many things differently after I returned. My aim is to combine my travells with not only taking but also giving something back to the local communities.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/Share....I guess anything to do with Poland (language, cooking etc...)
Digital & analog photography:) Bryan knows a lot about wildlife esp. native New Zealand wildlife so if you are into native birds or trees ask him:)
As we both travelled a bit we are happy to give some advice etc. about other places esp. Bryan about parts of South America and Africa where he lived and travelled for a year. When it comes to learning OMG there is so much I want to learn! But at the moment my priority is to learn Spanish, how to sail as well as improve my photography skills so one day I can take the photo that will change the world:) My dream is to go to Tokelau Island and photograph the local people there. Documenting their life is important to me as one day their beautiful island wont exist anymore due to the global warming:(
