About Me

I will get bachelor degree in Photography and Multimedia at Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław next year. I have also master degree in Chemistry. So, I'm chemist and artist in one person :)
I have been in Georgia, Israel, Ukraine, Albania and many others countries as volunteer.
In free time I like walking in the mountains and play guitar.
In my opinion smiling people are more beautiful so I'm trying to smile in every second!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music are: Jazz, Soul, R'n'B.
My favorite writers are: Erlend Loe, Ignacy Karpowicz

I like the most Gregory Porter who sings vocal jazz. I saw him for the first time few years ago at the concert in Kraków. I listened his album “Be good” before that event but I was not so impressed. But! When I heard him live I fell in love with his music. His warm and deep voice moved me to a magic place.
My favorite song from album “Be good” is “Real Good Hands” which was recorded in 2012. It is written by Gregory like most of the track from this album. On it are played instruments such as: alto saxophone, bass, drums, piano , tenor saxophone and trumpet. On youtube we can find few covers of it. The narrator of the song is the man who is in love with a woman. This song is confession to parents his future wife. He is assuring of great love for their daughter and that he is a good man. He is singing that they are living her in real good hands.
I like this song so much because it’s touching and soothing. I can relax during listening and forgot about everything. I love moments when Gregory is singing with soft and quiet voice.
This track reminds me the day when I was sitting in the first row at the concert and falling love with Gregory’s Porter music. I always listen his albums when I’m sad or nervous. It helps me calm down and relax. So “Real Good Hands” and others songs reminds me also every sad moments in my life. But I think that every sad experience is a good experience. That’s the reason I don’t feel depressed during listening Gregory Porter.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I slept in the desert with bedouins under the open sky.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook for you polish food "pierogi" (to be honest: I can make the best pierogi ever!). I like sing even that I can't sing nice - so we can sing together.
