"I was not born for one corner. The whole world is my native land, " proclaimed Seneca, the esteemed Roman philosopher. I wholeheartedly echo his sentiment. Born in Poland and raised in the UK, my extensive travels have instilled in me a sense of being a citizen of the world. While I have served as a tour guide in various countries, including the UK, Israel, Egypt, and Jordan, tour guiding is not merely a job for me—it is a genuine passion. Enthralled by history, I derive immense joy from guiding people through the enchanting city of Bruges, and sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm. As a freelance journalist, historical researcher, and explorer, I am continuously engrossed in planning new adventures, expeditions, and projects. Whether it involves tracing the paths of pilgrims and crusaders in the Holy Land, embarking on maritime and diving escapades aboard Spanish galleons, or unearthing lost battlefields and treasures, I have chosen Bruges as my "final destination. " This decision stems from its resemblance to Gdańsk/Danzig, the city of my youth—a medieval Hanseatic town—along with its incredibly rich history and, not to mention, its exquisite beers and an array of delectable chocolates. I have fallen in love with this remarkable place, and I am confident that you will do the same as we embark on our journey together, continually uncovering new facets of Bruges. My research focuses on history and archaeology, with a specialization in mysteries and lesser-known facts. I eagerly await the opportunity to meet you, and I highly recommend bringing a camera, as there will be ample photo opportunities along the way.

I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences.
