Description

I am a dreamer, my dreams motivate me. When I was in junior school I watched the Crocodile Dundee movie and since that, I knew that one day I'll travel to Australia. Now I have finally my flight ticket and I am ready to start my journey. What will be later? Nobody knows but I've got feeling in my guts that it will be incredible.

What else ...

Great childhood and adulthood...
As a child, I traveled with my parents to know Poland more. Every year I visit the Lower Silesia mountains and the Baltic Sea.
As an adult, I traveled across Europe and visited Italy, France, Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Malta, Greece, and even more. I am grateful I live in the middle of Europe because there are so many different cultures around. Every country has its own unique history a chance to visit Italy, Greece, Malta, France, and some more countries.

Backpacker's dream...
I always wanted to see what does world looks like. Reading a book about other people's experiences is not enough. I spontaneously bought a one-way ticket to Perth and started preparation. Viza, insurance, and all needed vaccinations. Lots of work but totally worth it because now I am that person who travels with backpack. I live in my dream now :)

Best memories...
The first pistachio ice cream I ate while sitting in the sun in Pistoia
Taste of fig I bought from an elderly Italian woman on the market.
Sandwich with pie and pickles I ate during sunrise on the top of Śnieżnik (a beautiful pick in Lower Silesia)
Yes, I travel to eat ;)
