It's going to rain tommorow....


How do I know it? Numerical weather forecast calculated on Warsaw University have been one of my favourite web pages for many years. The forecast it much more accurate than in TV. For planning all outdoor activities this page is a must. Of' course you should not reschedule your tomorrow walks, just take a raincoat. There's no bad weather, there's only bad clothing.

Somewhere in Poland (2) - 843 km of beaches


I like the sea with it's faraway horizon, but I rarely go to the seaside, and never in the summer. I simply do not like this holiday atmosphere - noisy crowds, fastfoods, kitsch souvenirs and smell of fried fish. I'm looking for places when I can contemplate the horizon without seeing it through someone's deckchair. Poland has 843 kilometers of coast line, so it's still possible to find such place. Recently I've camped on a high cliff, 10 km east of Ustka. Wild camping is officially not allowed in Poland but (not officially) it's tolerated (except for national parks), finding a place for tent it's very easy in comparison to Western Europe.

See this place on google maps.

Othere places somewhere in Poland:
Somewhere in Poland - my favourite bridge
Somewhere in Poland (3) -  The Far East
Somewhere in Poland (4) - Water way to the border

Outdoor equipment in Warsaw - the power od Google Maps

I didn't like geography lessons and one of the reasons was the fact that I have never had any artistic skills. Drawing maps have been a horror for me. I've never expected, that one day I would make a map just for fun. But I did. With Google Maps it's f... easy. My first map shows stores with all kind of outdoor equipment in Warsaw and bike shops and workshops.
