A story of our upbringing and its effect on our lives

I’m going to make a lot of enemies with this blog post. But I’m not ashamed of my life story. I come from Poland. I was born in a communist country so knowing that I’m mid-thirties you can figure out that we’re relatively new to the democracy. What we’re also really new to is change. […]

Rubbish, rubbish everywhere

Before I’ll take you through beautiful Colombia in the next day or two, I’ll take you through the damage we do to Colombia. Yes, that is you and me as much as Colombians themselves. We produce an enormous amount of rubbish and we just can’t stop. Let me start with a statement – in many […]
