Saturday’s knowledge struggle…

Dear all, after I wake up today I decided to continue working on my English version of the blog. It turns out that to get proper plug ins through WordPress you have to spend some money. So in order to avoid that I forced my brain cells to think more. Some YouTube movies and I am almost done, blog will be available soon in English. Original post was posted in Polish, so now everyone should understand my polish “mumbo dżumbo”. I am proud of myself doing all this, that means that my brain still works and can learn something new.

About today, after I got my brain tired with technical issues I got in to more pleasurable activities at the gym. Additional to that the weather is just spoiling us here, blue sky and 31 degrees Celsius. That’s the Saturday I love! I am sending some warmth to Poland, I saw that Vistula river is flooding banks in beloved Krakow!

Alexandria, VA

So today was my day off, that’s why me and my roommate who many of you probably know already, decided for a little trip. About 30 minutes south from Washington DC with blue metro line and here we are Alexandria. Beautiful city with small buildings in colonial style, on the main street “King Street” filled with shops and restaurants you can let yourself loose. City that is dating it’s beginning in 1669. That’s for USA a very good historical result I must say. From metro station to the Potomac waterfront you can take a free trolley. On your way you can stop staring at all those beautiful houses and shops, everywhere something interesting. we spent there at least one hour walking around and taking photos. Before coming back we have to had lunch cause we were starving, and of course we end up eating nothing else but…. burgers. After return to Washington I went for pizza with my best friend, my roommate flake on us, can’t blame him. And that was a really good decision, little pizzeria on 14th street “Etto”, and oh boy what a surprise was waiting to happen. We were sitting on the outside and were about to finish our dinner and than two black Suburbans pulled over in front of the restaurant, and oh boy there he was Jake Gyllenhaal himself with some friends. They came inside and took a nice corner table, unfortunately my paparazzi skills failed this time. But that was a really nice surprise at the end of a beautiful day.

Travel small and travel big…

It turns out that that I am in love with traveling, I assume that I am not the only one that feels that way. Lately I was trying to remember  all my adventures. There was not to many of them but I was always looking forward to every single one. I will try to write about most of them in my posts. First trip that will forever stay in my mind and heart, will the the one from year 2000, passport in my hand, ticked for my first ever airplane flight… wow… Excited, scared, how it will be…. My first time abroad, and where? … USA. 20 years old boy fly alone to America. Till today I remember my strong heart beating before entering the plane, it was Boeing 767 Polish Airlines LOT. Window seat, seatbelt fasten, awaiting take off, engines to full, thrust and huge smile on my face! That’s how I remember that first trip. Arrival to Newark airport, than connecting flight was a piece of cake, that’s how this young boy fall in love with traveling. First amazing vacation spent in USA, road trip to Florida, everything with my closest family. Than another two trips to USA in 2001 and 2003. That’s how my all adventures started. In 2003 after coming back from USA I went to UK for 3 months, and than upon returns started my college and work. And where to work if you like travel, yes I got my opportunity in Sheraton Krakow Hotel in Krakow. Until 2011 there was a big break in my traveling schedule, mostly because my career took over and I was concentrated on that. In 2011 many things has changed including my status of being single. Love comes as a surprise and I had amazing to years of happiness and travel. During that time I have visited so many local places like Turawskie Lake, Kudłacze shelter up high in the mountains, Kazimierz Dolny, Wrocław, Międzyzdroje, Poznań, Szczecin, and places further away like Berlin, Paris, and southern Spain from Valencia to Gibraltar. In my mind only best memories from that time. In the meantime there was also a short birthday trip to London with my sister, we had a blast. After that all got complicated, life got complicated, had to make a decision about leaving my home country, my eyes looked at USA. In 2014 I have returned to USA, this time it was Steamboat Springs in Colorado, a ski resort high in the mountains. That gave me some experience and directed my path towards Washington DC. And that’s where I am until today. But of course this is not the end, oh no not me, as USA has so many places to visit, my list started to growing again. During my two years here I have visited Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Miami, Las Vegas and Punta Cana on Dominican Republic. I can promise you one thing, it is not yet over…!
