My mum says that I was born a traveller because when I was in her womb she travelled. But I know that my obsession (which is what I call it now) goes much deeper than the stories my mum tells me. Both my parents born and raised in Poland were travellers when they were my age. My dad travelled on his bike (motorcylce) all over eastern europe. Although their travels were more of a means of obligation rather than leisure, I definately consider myself being born into a family that strongly supports discovering the world, and for that I am grateful. My first trip to Europe was when I was 10, and ever since than I have become very passionate about it. However, it wasn't until recently that my yearly trips to Poland become backpacking excursions to the rest of Europe. I work all year, so that I can spend four months, meeting new people and experiencing new places, I live for this and after all I was born to do it.
