About me

About me
Full of passion for adventures, travel, people and a love of life, I have lived in a few places around the world including New York City, Manchester and now finally I call Krakow home for the meantime.

An ex-ballroom dancer, real estate salesperson, I am always evolving and changing sometimes surprising even myself.

I love meeting new people and showing them around my city, so if you're in Krakow drop me a line!

Why Krakow?
Krakow is a city I have always had a passion for. Having been born in Poland but brought up in the US, I always heard of the legends, the beauty, the history of this fascinating city and promised myself that I would one day call it home.

The city is ever evolving, ever changing and there is always something to do here from music festivals to art exhibitions to the opening of a new bar or restaurant so getting bored is not an option.

On top of all of this Krakow is beautiful and international while still staying quaint.

Milk Bar Miła

Communist style canteen

"Milk Bar Miła" in Krakow is a canteen from communist times. Today locales like this are disappearing. The prices are dirt cheap; be sure to have change!

Dong-A

Big, tasty, and inexpensive

"Dong-A" in Krakow is a Chinese/Asian restaurant with some huge, inexpensive portions! For Polish Asian cuisine standards, I find it very satisfying!

Beef Burger Bar

Fresh burgers and fries

"Beef Burger Bar" in Krakow makes the patties fresh! The portions are very large; I always have a hard time finishing mine. Great fries too.

Zielone Tarasy

Rooftop w/ healthy affordable eats

"Zielone Tarasy" in Krakow gives off the appearance of an expensive place. Not so - the portions are even very large! Just beware of the green shakes!

Smakolyki

Food at student prices and with class

"Smakolyki" in Krakow is on my way to work. I was pleasantly surprised when I first visited this restaurant - both for the live music and student specials.

Zakrzowek

Quarry oasis in the city center

"Zakrzowek" in Krakow made me think I was somewhere in the Adriatic Sea. There are some paths around the lake and a hiking/biking trail in a nearby park...
