This year I did more of some things and less of others… and it has made all the difference. This has been a year of letting go of control. A year of learning to deeply trust in the wisdom of what is unfolding for me, what is unfolding for all of us. Here's a list… Continue reading My Top 10 Wellness Practices of 2020

Look up, look deep and tell me what you see
I'm fixing up my résumé, and it's not for the first or the last time. I also realize that what I want to write is not necessarily what I should write. They tell me that I'm meant to list, yet again, my education and work experiences. I want to write the whole truth. I want… Continue reading Look up, look deep and tell me what you see

Arms raised to me
Now. Raising one hand, marvel at the mechanisms, the magic, the life-force creation here around, in soil, sun and sand. Raise the other hand and the spirit slips through my fingers, its natural rhythm is in flight with the flocks, in tune with trance of trickling of the stream, with the whistle of the wind.… Continue reading Arms raised to me

24 photos for the 24th of March, 2015
I decided to document my day in photos, with a bit of commentary. Just an ordinary-miracle kind of day, here in Fort-Liberté, Haïti. Beautiful sun, shared laughs and plenty of sweetness 😉 Wake up to blue skies and my room, as seen through the mosquito netting. My first thought is to see my plants.… Continue reading 24 photos for the 24th of March, 2015
Północny wschód na pieszo: Wspinaczka na Fort Capois i szczyt Sarazin
Słuchając historii o Péralte oraz historii walki o Haitańską niepodległość, ruszyliśmy ponownie szlakiem, pozostawiając jego północną górską bazę oraz miejsce jego zgonu. Nasza podróż powrotna przebiegła bez specjalnych atrakcji może poza przystankiem na pyszne pomarańcze otrzymane od pobliskiego rolnika. Świetna i bardzo przydatna przekąska!

Startups4Charity: services modernes offerts gratuitement aux ONG
Un jour un group de jeunes polonais à Varsovie se sont posé une question importante : "Qu'est-ce que les Startups font pour participer au développement ? Est-ce qu’elles pourraient collaborer avec les ONG ?". C’est ainsi qu’est né le projet de Startups4Charity.
