About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to live just a plain good life- good to others and to our-own-selfs

ABOUT ME

Barbara - I am Californian born and raised, with some Polish roots - have been living in Europe the past 15+ years, loving city streets until recently, now I live a (relatively) simple life in the countryside, loving it and exploring with 2 little sons :)
Tom - Polish, have lived quite a nomadic life, now I own and run a local radio station ;)

We are:
interested, open, crazy about being on the move and meeting all kinds of people & places, love nice conversations sitting on the side of a dirt road or on a tiny hidden city plaza.
+ we now travel with our two little sons :) or without ;) two little men who are very interested in the world!

PHILOSOPHY

simplicity, honesty
