    Travelling

  • Description

    Since February 2024, I've been on the road again, traveling alone on my Suzuki DR motorbike through Africa. The plan is to get overland as far as Nepal and even further. Last time, it took me four years to get to Japan all the way from Morocco.

    It's all about freedom. I live my life and enjoy it. But sometimes, I just need to stop somewhere, stay put, unpack, make days look similar, surround myself with people, and have proper conversations, something longer than small talk. I need to do things, have some responsibilities. Believe me, you miss it all after some time.

    I find the idea of Workaway just brilliant. It addresses everything I just mentioned. I love it.

    My first job was as a newspaper boy at age 12, and I spent all my earnings on ice cream. During my studies, I would go to the USA for summer jobs. I washed cars, cleaned houses, worked as a waiter, painted fences, pressure-washed driveways, and walked dogs. I used the money to fund my studies in Vienna, Austria, and Delhi, India, and to travel overland from Poland to India on a three-month epic journey.

    Now, I’m a film producer by profession. I mostly create TV commercials, branded content, and short documentaries. I oversee projects and people, manage finances, solve problems, and make things happen—because the show must go on.

    When I work, I put my heart into it. I’ve found my own way to balance work and life. I work for a few years, then travel for a few years, just to miss my job and get back into the crazy ride all over again.

    I’m adventurous, love trying new things, and I’m a fast learner. I’m a positive spirit and always strive to contribute my best. I hope we’ll meet soon.

  • More details about your skills

    I'm a film producer by profession. This means I'm a project manager, making things happen, dealing with people, money, and problems. In my life, I work for a few years and then I travel for a few years. When I travel, I keep my life simple. I stay with people and contribute however I can: I've done housesitting, taken care of pets, houses, and gardens, cooked, helped on farms and in guesthouses, and even volunteered at a Buddhist monastery in Korea.
