About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep myself healthy and happy

ABOUT ME
Currently I work as software developer in IT company in Lublin, Poland.
My future husband Robert shares my fate of unfulfilled archaeologist and newbe IT specialist.

We both like to travel by ourselves, we prefer to choose how to travel, where to sleep and what to see so we don't use travel agencies and organized trips. We love to visit places that connecting us to out archeological and historical interests, especiallly castles and ancient ruins.

Robert is particularly fond of nature, mountains, peaceful distant isolated places and islands.
I am more into crowded and loudy cities :) but mostly into people and love getting to know new places by sharing stories,
enjoying company of people with different way of thinking, ideas, customs, history.
I'd love to go to some local meeting, concert, party.

Yet we've managed to somehow deal with our different preferences and we're making every trip unforgetable. We both like to feel that we're in move and hate sitting in one place!

As Robert loves to sit behind wheel, nothing relax me better than looking at the moving landscapes through the car window...

PHILOSOPHY

The next day will not look like the past one. In other case, that's okay, sometimes you have to get rest.

I step aside for a while but soon I will be able to share my place with you guys again, bit patience please ;)

-love digging (archaeological stuff),
-love watching horrors B and not romantic commedies,
-love playing with languages and not learning any to an advance level (lazyness;),
-drawing and not writing,
-I am collecting coins from different countries, so if you haven't got bored earlier and reached this part of my writing - it would be nice to swap...
