Owl Mountains!

Oh yeah! I definitely needed a break from this autumnal, overwhelming atmosphere. With my lovely family we spent a nice weekend in Góry Sowie (Owl Mountains) in the Central Sudetes. Well, I've never been there before so I was rather curious about this trip. I have to admit that I really enjoyed time with my brothers, my sis and my parents. 



What interesting did we do? Frankly speaking, we played board games, we watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, we ate a lot of piergoi ruskie and kluski śląskie and of course we did a lot of walks in the forests. We visited grodno Castle and the complexes of Project Reise (it is an underground structure which was an project of Nazi Germany). 
And on Sunday we went to the top-most peak of the Owl Mountains called Great Owl. The landscape was breathtaking because of hoar frost which is not so common. I was feeling like in that movie "Frozen" or like in the kingdom of The Snow Queen (from the fairytale of Andersen). 
Once we had to come back to our house by night and I was genuinely scared of wild boars. Happily, we haven't met any of that animals. 



Going to the Owl Mountains was a wonderful opportunity to talk with my sister, play cards with my brothers and eat breakfast with my parents. I was really lucky that I could spend the Independence Day in so nice circumstances.

Antonio Gaudi. Architectural genius.

A.Gaudi The best thing in Barcelona is definitely ... architecture. I really love nature, beautiful views, culture of Spain. Generally speaking, I have never EVER seen a place with so many marvelous buildings. I think it's all because of modernisme and one of the most illustious architects of Barcelona is Antonio Gaudi. Gaudí devoted his life entirely to his profession, so as a consequence we can now admire his buildings which are artworks.  Sagrada Família Apparently, the first artwork we wanted to see was Sagrada Familia. Despite the fact that Sagrada is incomplete it's UNESCO World Heritage. Well, I am not surprised why. the basilica is just awsome. You look at it's facade and you go into raptures. We decided not to enter inside because of a huge queue.(Next time maybe we will enter :)) Park Guell The next stop was also worth seeing. We decided to go there by foot so it took us a lot of time, but I really appreciate strolling throught new citi

Eh

Hi everybody!  How's life?  I am just sitting with my sis in the train going back to Poznań. I was in Warsaw, cause I had to prepare my presentation about my mission in Zambia. I spent there more than 2 mounths so now it was time to share my experience with others who are preparing themselves to go for a mission.  Well, recently it's the worst time of my life. I really don't want to share with you any detail cause it doesn't matter. There are a lot of factors that influence my state of mind, my thoughts, my behaviour. I even don't have neither power nor idea about what I should write here with you. In my primary school we used to say "Life is brutal and full of zasadzkas" and we used to laugh a lot about this sentace. Now I really don't feel like laughing at all. But still life is life and you have to live it even when it's tough. In spite of my negative post I hope it will get better.  Have a nice Sunday.  D.

Let's escape!

Last weekend my friend Artur had birthday so we decided to have fun in escape room! Do you know what is that? Well, in Poznań escape rooms are becoming more and more popular. Nowadays there are 57 escape rooms only in my city! It's so marvelous that everytime I go there I'am very excited. So what is it? Escape room is a logical game, where you have to use your shrewdness, maths skills and be very observant. You are locked in a small room and you have only one hour to escape. You have to find hidden clues, objects, resolve some riddles. Every room has its own story: you can be locked in prison, in psychiatric hospital, in Hogwarts or in the spooky house and you have to do your best to set yourself free. So on Saturday we went to ... the house of vampire. I was so so anxious and panicked because I prefer escape rooms which are not so eerie! Even though the female part of the team was schreeching a lot (I was the first one to scream) I found this game very funny and entertaining!
