Tips for trips!

Hey guys.
It's been a while since my last post. Things been crazy recently. I just moved to my new apartment. And I love it. But do not have to much time for anything. Just work, study, interviews..
In this post I want to give you a few tips for trips.
When I'm asking someone if he/she like travel and if they do, they often say that they really love that, but they can't afford that. I really don't like this answer. It's not a real reason. If someone say that, that person is lying.

There are a few tips from me for the really cheap trip:

1st. You have to decided where do you want to go, how long for, who are u going with?
2nd. Start schearching some hosts on couchsurfing. Write to a few peole and of course check if they have a good referens.
3td. Find some map in your house or just print some from internet.
4th. Try to find the best route to your destination. And try to define how much time it will take.
5th. If you already have done the sections 1-4 go to section 6 :D
6th.   Packed the most important and needed things. the best solution would be if you had a big backbag. It's convenient.
7th. Ask some friend to give you and friend who are going with you(and if) a lift for the closest petrol station on motorway.
8th. And here we are. Your hitchhiking adventure is starting. Remeber if someone looks suspicios for you, JUST DON'T GET IN!
9th. When you get to your destination call to your host friend and ask him if he would pick you up from some place where you are. (Of course you have took his/her number earlier and you said what time about you would be there)
10th. Have a nice trip!!
As you can see you don't need money for bus, airplane or any other transport and for hotel. Of course it would be great if you had some money just in case or for some food or soomething (Of course you can bring some food with you if you don't have to spent too much money. But I rather revive that ).
This kind of trip is good for about 3 - 4 days.

If you have any questions, ask me. I would be grateful to answer! I could

to Amsterdam by Hitch-hiking

Hi everyone. I've been pretty busy last days but I found a few minutes for my blog. Today I want to tell you about my spontanious trip to Amsterdam. 
January this year I met my friend who I hadn't seen for a long time. I met her in Breslau in Poland. We were sitting drinking beer when she said 'Let's do something fun!'- 'For exapmle what?' I asked.
'Go to Amsterdam!'
So we decided that we were going to amsterdam next day. I packed the most needed stuff and about 7am next day me and my friend were standing on a petrol station on highway. We decided to go by hitch-hiking. We didn't have money for train or something like that and of course it was more fun!! those days were really cold, the winter this year was severe but it didin't stop us. We got to Amsterdam pretty quick as we were goin by hitch-hiking, we got there in 12 hours. we had 1000 kilometers to go.
To be honest I had thought it would be more scary or something but it wasn't at all. If we saw that someone could be suspicious we just didn't get in. Anyway when we got there we had only few euros in packet so we couldn't go to hotel so we found a person on Couch Surfing so we didn't have to pay for sleeping, it was really nice guy, now he's going to visit us because we still have contact with him. We were in Amsterday only for few days. We couldn't afford for longer. Fortunatley in Amsterdam wasn't so cold as in Poland. So we had really good time there. I have to say that it was really suprising for me.. I always imagined Amsterday a little bit diffrent, but I loved this place and I will go there again for sure. To be honest I could even live there.
Again, it's only general description of that but like I said, don't have to much time right now.
I will show you guys some photos form Amsterdam later because I don't have any on this computer.

Have a nice day!

First trip

Last night I couldn't sleep at all and I was thinking a lot. And I reminded about one funny story.
I used to hate walking in the mountains and one day when I was about 13 I was on my holidays in Zakopane in Poland. And my older cousin with her boyfriend were there and they took me to trip to Tatras (Tatry). Weather was pretty variable. In one moment it was raining and few minutes later the sun was shining. Anyway so when we got to 'The Eye of the Sea' (Morskie Oko) I was really tired. But the view was amazing. I had never seen anything so beautiful before. I was so thankful I could be there. And then my cousin said that we were going on to 'valley of five ponds' (Dolina pieciu stawow). But I said I wasn't going. I couldn't. I was exhausted. And thinks about going higher made me sick. I told them to had left me there and I would wait for them. Of course they didn't agree, they couldn't left me alone in the mountains. So I had to go. They said that I wouldn't regret. And when we got there I didn't believe what I was seeing. It was breathtaking. And then they asked me 'And what? Do you regret you came here?' of course I couldn't admit they were right so I said 'Yes, I do. There is nothing special.' And I was pretending I was mad at them. But in the depths of my soul.. I was so thankful to them that they'd took me there.

Since this day I love mountains! My cousin and her boyfriend still don't know that I actually loved that trip.

The man of my life

Hey, its me again. Of course its me, how else would it be?
So I want to tell you a story. I'm not even sure how I feel about that right now. I've got really mixed feelings. I used to write about that on my other blog, but then I had different perspective on that. It was fully of pain.
The story is about the men of my life. A few years ago there was a man really really handsome and I just knew him by sight. But fate so willed that we had a chance to get to know each other. And I can say it had been the best time of my life so far, every single word spoken by him, every smile, kiss. Of course then I didn't know that it would bring me so many sleepless nights, tears.. But it was really worth. For really long time I couldn't think soberly. I mean I couldn't date any other man because I always compared them to this one.. But what changed? Some day early this year I met him and we hadn't been spoken pretty long he told me something that I wasn't expected. He told me that he's expecting a child, a daughter.. I was surprised by my reaction, I took it really well and I'm happy about that. In some way it made me free. Finally I can look at him without desire in my eyes. Talk to him just about life like a good old friends.
And a few weeks ago he get married. I'm really happy for him, I really am.
It's a very general outline of this story. But from all things happening around me this one is the truest and deepest.
Maybe someday I will write something more about that, some details. Actually I started writing a book about  and our first meeting is described  in great detail. But unfortunately I've got only a few chapters. And I haven't been writing for months. Maybe someday I will back to this book and finally finish it and share with you.

Welcome to my world

Welcome to my world. World of happiness, sadness, money, glory. Just life.
I live.. somewhere in the world of course. There are a lot of places I belong to. I think for now it doesn't matter where I'm writing from. Right? Every single post could be write from different part of the world.
Now a little bit of me. I'm rather happy optimistic person. Of course have some problems too. but who doesn't? Can you admit right now that you don't have any problems, even a little one?
I love to travel and I'm moving quite often. We can say that I  live out of a suitcase. Anyway my life situation require me to do that. And I like that. Of course sometimes I miss a quiet, arranged life. I've got that one place I'm happy to comeback. This is my place. And it always makes me smile. This is where I grew up. And this place had the biggest influence of me, of who I am now..

What about you guys? Do you like travel? Meet new people, cultures.. Share your story with me.
