About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To fully appreciate how lucky I am

ABOUT ME


This is what I've heard from one of my close friends recently:

"How do you do it? You are smart and stupid at the same time"Eva

Jun'08 | Londoner's invasion
An amazing group of Londoners have come to Poland. The most fantastic people I had the opportunity to meet in London appeared again in my life. Aga, Goska, Fernanda, Davina, Fabio, Ania, Rogerio and their friends made my weekend wild :) Thank you guys.

Mar'08 | And back to Krakow for some time
Due to health problems I'm back in Krakow for some time :) But my suitcase is ready and can't wait for another journey.

Feb'08 | Just moved in to London :)
It's a part of a huge revolution in my life. Currently tuning in to London, searching of lost time.

Too much to experience, too little time. So I live fast, sleep short, drink way too much coffee.

I lived and worked in Krakow. As an IT consultant (storage/backup/virtualization) I travelled across the country and touched people's IT systems while talking to them (to people mostly).

Doing my best to go to kick-boxing trainings twice a week. Love motion - fell in love with motion-design - with use of AfterEffects I'm fooling around with so called 2.5D animation.

Dreaming of travel, meeting new people, cultures.
Trying to explore myself and find out who I really am.

PHILOSOPHY


"See Lainy, this is all we need. A couple of smokes, a cup of coffee, and a little bit of conversation. You and me and five bucks."- Reality Bites
Appreciating moments.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done


Experienced so called "lucid dreaming" (or maybe even OOBE) - which changed the way I look at the world, people, life, love & death.

I'm capable to find joy in small things - I'm wondering if I could teach how to do that :))
