About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn to love people around

ABOUT ME

I would describe myself as a friendly and open-minded person. I like to talk about different topics, exchanging different points of view.
I'm always trying to find alternative way of everything. I don't like that much the way of life which the system offers me.
I love to travel, especially to the wild, natural and non-touristic places. As I don't have a lot of money I really enjoy to travel in the cheapest possible way. I am not afraid of hitch-hiking, sleeping in strange places like (crashed air plane, abandoned houses, caves etc.) and even dumpster-diving :)
I'm not a party person. I don't like spending time in pubs, clubs etc. Instead of meeting friend in pub, I prefer to take tent, frying pan and go with him to the forest and make pancakes on the bonfire. I like to do non ordinary, sometimes crazy things. Swimming in the fountain in the city center is not to much for me.

As I have bad memory, I always carry my camera, so I can collect beautiful moments and landscapes of my trips. You can see my photos here: http://www.blaszczakphoto.com

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Few years ago I spent my New Year's Eve in the polish mountains and I slept in a tent. It was a freaking frosty night. It wasn't so bad, I wasn't alone. There was 3 people with me and our tent was destined for only 2 people. During the night we had our feet outside (especially me, because I am quite tall). Despite of the frost we decided to make a campfire and we did it.

What an excellent event! ;)
