Bull shark feeding for Christmas planned in Fiji’s Beqa Lagoon

Dorota and I have just booked our flights, accommodation and diving for our Christmas trip to Fij. I’m really excited and can’t wait to get diving there. We’re not going for the tropical beaches, little islands and white sand, but to hand feed Bull and Tiger sharks. In fact we will get to see about […]

Polish Wedding, Kolo, Poland

Finally I’ve managed to find the time to write about my cousin’s wedding Alex and I attended in Poland back in September 2008. Typical Polish weddings start on a Saturday and take 2 days! In a few words, it’s all about tradition, church, drinking, eating, dancing, drinking, singing, drinking etc. I’m familiar with all of […]

The Matrix, Walsh Bay/Millers Point Film Location, Sydney

The Matrix is my favourite movie. I’ve seen it lots of times. And I’m sure I’m not the only one that doesn’t know something. It’s quite embarrassing to admit that I had NO IDEA it was filmed in Sydney, the city we’ve been living in for over 7 months! After spotting a sign on the […]

The Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia

The Blue Mountains are an impressive place and are only 2h away from Sydney. They look like a different world (like most of the places out of the city). I still can’t believe that lots of locals, expats and backpackers haven’t been there… The name of these mountains comes from the blue tinge the range […]

Hampden Suspension Bridge, Kangaroo Valley, NSW

I’m not a bridge enthusiast or anything but I really love this bridge, it was crazy to see how much the wooden decking moved when trucks passed over it. The bridge is also the only surviving suspension bridge from the colonial period of NSW and was an outstanding engineering achievement for its time. Hampden Bridge […]

The Polish Wedding Dancing Competition

Well this is it everyone, the video you’ve been waiting for over a year to see. The Polish Wedding Dancing Competition. Which I was able to win due to irrational behavior caused by chronic alcohol intoxication from drinking a few liters of potato juice, wodka. (In Polish the word Vodka is spelt and pronounced wodka, […]

Sydney Dust Storm – Darling Harbour

Wow. This photo was taken at 0630 this morning whilst walking to the gym. At first I thought it was some unusual fog. It was only after leaving the gym and seeing people in dust masks and all the cars and streets in red dust that I realised it wasn’t. I went to have a […]

What is really sad is that these magnificant mammals are nearly extinct. There are only belived to be around 300 Nurse Sharks and will be extinct within 7 years.
