my apartment in Otwock

Poland was my first ever home and I did most of my growing up here. I was born in Otwock, a small city about 20 minutes drive from Warsaw, so I spent a lot of my early days in Warsaw aswell. Lived in Otwock untill i was 11 and then moved to Canada with my mom and sister in november of 1995. During the 11 years in Poland i spent 3 summers in Germany just being a kid as my mom worked there for the summers. I have been back to Poland 6 times since moving to Canada, my last trip back was in the summer of 2000. All of my trips to Poland were to visit my dad, most trips were about 2 months and one was 6 months long. The best part was when i got to go to see him, it was also his summer so we went on vacations, i saw a lot of Europe and Tunisia because of my trips back to Poland.

My second home...Kamloops B.C.
When first coming to Canada I hated it, left all my friends and family in Poland and i didn't know any english so it was hard to know what was going on at most times. But I went to school in the first 3 weeks and got used to it. I lived in Kamloops my whole time in Canada but visited many places in BC during that time. After graduating from high school in 2003, I bumed around for a while and didn't know what to do with my self, then the fires in BC got really bad during that summer so i was off to the best job i've ever had "Firefighting". After that summer I "worked":| in Kamloops for a year at a bunch of different places, waited until i was fired and off to my next job haha no no. Then summer 2004 came and fires got bad again, so i was off to do that for another summer. August came along, I took my TESOL course and was off to China...

:o

3rd and so far final home........

When coming to China on the plane i had NO CLUE what to expect, what the city looked like that i was going to or anything. Just had our bags and a $100 Canadian. We found a job on the net and decided to move kind of last minute and couldn't find ANY information on the city we were moving to (Taizhou(Jiaojiang)), but we decided to take it anyways... The first city I lived in was Jiaojiang, I didn't mind it at first but then started looking around on the internet all the much better cities in China, and shortly after that I was off to Guangzhou. I spent 7 months in Guangzhou and i really enjoyed this city. Good people, good food and many good places to check out. Eventhough i said i hated Jiaojiang, it was still a wicked experience to see that kind of Chinese way of life, a lot different from many other places. In China i now have been to a few cities so you can take a look at the pages...

There are expensive spoons but i am not after those. I just want any spoon with a name on it. You can help with covering my wall so if you would like to send me a spoon then all you have to do is email me here on VT and i will send you my address.

Oh and i dont care one bit if the spoons are from the same location.....the spoons always look different.
