Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Backpacking for a month in Japan (July 2010) without cellphone, laptop, or japanese language skill. Survived. Climbed up Mt. Fuji by myself, amazed by the beauty of nature when I saw the sunrise on the top of Fuji-san.

3 months solo backpacking around europe in 2013 was priceless moments that I would never forget
