giewont tatra mountains poland

Giewont – the most popular polish peak

Giewont is 1894 m high and has characteristic profile of – as legend says – sleeping knight. It is located close to Zakopane city what makes it very popular and crowded. I suggest not to go there during summer weekend unless you want to wait 3 hours in queue to the peak :)

Sleeping outside the hut or weekend in Tatras

Kayaking in Warsaw on Świder River

Świder is small river close to Warsaw. Although Mazovia Province is flat region, Świder is very attractive river and it can be exciting on some parts. I was kayaking on this river three times and every time it was different.

Sandefjord in 24h

It’s easy to find very cheap flight to Norway but Norway is very expensive. So what is solution? Go to 24h trip, take food with you and not sleep. That’s what I did with friends 4 years ago.

Barcelona by night

I came to Spain to make skydive over Castellón de la Plana but in the meantime I visited Barcelona. I came to this city at 9 pm. Next day at 9 am I had a train to Castellón and I decided not to sleep and see how Barcelona looks at night. It turned out, it looks a little different that I had imagined.
