Warsaw time - The human Experience


This weekend I spend in Warsaw in place called 'Salezjański Ośrodek Misyjny' which is the place where young people are prepared for being volonteers in the poorest countries of our planet. I've spent there 3 wonderful days with my friends. I still don't know the details but probably I will spend my "last summer" in another country working with children or homeless people. I'll let ou know :) 

On Sunday I met my friends from Moldova - Emilia, Iulia and Sasza. I made an appointment with them and another friend Zosia. Because other friends were presenting their film we went to see it. 

It's called "The human exeprience" and it's about two brother for light in the dark world". They are trying to be homless in New York, then they go to Peru where they help abandoned children. Their last adventure is in Ghana in the leper colony.  

I absolutely think this film is worth seeing. If you' re interested of this documentary just see  the trailer: 




Have a good Monday!

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

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!

The cathedral island in Poznań

The Cathedral Island in polish is called "Ostrów Tumski" - ostrów in old polish means island and tum means the cathedral. Last Satruday I was with my group there to explore this delightful place. In this area lived dukes, kings, artists and normal people. If you really want to do a tour in Ostrów Tumski you need to have more or less 4 hours. In this encalve there are located monuments like Archaeological Reserve called Genius Loci, psaltery, St. Mary Church, Archcathedral  Basilica and Archibishop Palace. Unquestionably, person who left the most important imprint on this territory is duke Mieszko I. He decided to create a sovereign state and so he adopted Christianity. I was very suprised when I discovered that in Ostrów Tumski was a palace of Mieszko and Dobrawa. This palace symbolised the power of Mieszko I. What's more, in the palace of the duke there was a first polish chapel from the iniciative of his christian wife Dobrawa. From the palace site was erected  St. Ma
