Gdansk. Place where European culture trickles out of every corner. Its incredible nature, sumptuous buildings, hospitable people will enchant you the second you come here.
It has been a true blessing to visit this place and spend two unforgettable days in Gdansk.
Since it was my birthday, this trip was the best beginning of an adult life ever.
On the first morning playful sun rays woke us up and showed the true magnificence of our view from the window.As we stepped out of our hostel, our adventure began. We were lucky enough to stay at the place which was housed in Old Town. The more we walked, the more beauty we discovered. We literally had to stop at every corner to capture the moments of beauty.
The river which flows through the town imparts romantic atmosphere to the city. So if you and your partner are looking for a place to spend your weekend, Gdansk is your best bet.
Truth be told, Gdansk is different from the rest of Poland. Due to its history, the whole town is constructed on the sample of German building techniques. You can literally wander around the streets for hours without exhausting yourself because everything gives a flow of inspiration.
My friends and I also took the plunge and went to Sopot. This tiny yet marvellous town is also in my heart forever. Strolling along the shore is probably one of the best things to do in this life. We were also lucky to encounter swans and seagulls that were kind enough to accompany us on our photo shoot. The highlight of that day was the sunset. It was the most romantic, breathtaking, unforgettable, gorgeous sunset I have ever seen in my entire LIFE.
It was the last jigsaw puzzle that completed our splendid day.
The last day wasn't as exciting and packed with activities as the previous one. Yet, I realised one more time how much I want to come back to Gdansk over and over again. Unfortunately, our weekend came to an end and we had to bid farewell to that amazing place. But we still have abundance of memories to keep in our hearts.
Finishing of my narration, from now on Gdansk will be my little island to get away from the bustle and hustle and relish the beauty of life.
Sometimes it is really hard to catch up with this fast moving world, yet high productivity is in huge demand all the time. Doing twice as much as needed without harming your mental and physical health still sounds like a dream that is never to come true. Well, guess what? I've got some tips for you on how to enhance productivity and improve the quality of your work.
1. Planning.
1. Planning.
Before getting to actual work your first step should be planning. Create an upside down pyramid in your head and fill it in with tasks from the hardest to the easiest ones. That's how you should act if you have plenty of work to do and you have no idea where to start. No one has desire to deal with arduous work. But as long as you are done with it, feeling of self accomplishment and pride will penetrate every cell of your body.
2. Multitasking is not an option.
2. Multitasking is not an option.
You can't read a book, eat lunch, write a report and watch TV at the same time. Our brain function productively if you set yourself a specific task. This way your brain will keep its concentration only on that one thing which leads to high productivity.
3. Mix up things a little bit.
If you do the same boring work for hours, there is no way the outcome will be satisfactory. The golden rule of productivity is to combine tasks of various kinds. Case in point, read a book, then clean up your room. Tasks should be completely opposite to themselves, so that your brain could use different parts and work effectively.
4. Relax.
This rule is often neglected while it should be in your priorities. Having rest gives our body time to regain power and energy and clear our mind. Even if you are the biggest workaholic, relax is a mandatory for you. Working for long hours exhausts our body, so that it cannot manage tasks properly.
5. Eat well and sleep enough.

It can sound a bit random but this advice is crucial as well. Having proper diet and sleep regime can increase power capacity and productivity of our body.
6. And the last but not least, enjoy what you do.
6. And the last but not least, enjoy what you do.
Find pleasure in what you are doing. You can't succeed if you always enforce yourself to do things you hate. Pick only tasks you wish to do and relish dealing with them.
I am full of hopes that those tips will come in handy at least one of you. Stay positive and productive.

Since I've been so blessed to come to Warsaw, it's finally time to showcase my round-up of the most sumptuous places here.
1. Museum of Caricature
This place was found completely accidentally and I am so chuffed that I visited it. This museum doesn't pop up on typical tourist's pages but it's definitely worth seeing. Little hub of funny yet full of sense pictures is quietly housed in Old Town. It hides in between the streets and it might take a bit of time to locate it. Prices here are ridiculous, so it's another enormous bonus for you. Even if you are not a big fan of art, this is the place to fall in love with it.
2.The Royal Łazienki
If nature is indispensable part of your existence, then this park will be your safe boat to escape world of clamour and hectic life. In this time of the year Łazienki obtained an incredibly alluring palette of colours and sense tranquillity. It feels like it's the last place where autumn still sustains its full greatness. Another inseparable part of park composition is architecture which imparts even more splendour to this place. Being here gives your an opportunity to wind down and get a new lease of life.
3. Old Town
It would foolish of me not to mention Old Town. Old buildings bring more warmness and cuteness to the industrial city. They show the delicate building technique of old times making it an ideal place to spend your time in. Many words can be said but it's better to see once instead of talking about it.
4. Museum of Warsaw Uprising
As a big lover of history, this museum was my most awaited place to visit. Even if history is not your cup of tea, it doesn't mean you have to steer clear of such museums. This spot is a modern, interactive museum to learn more about history. I was so infatuated by its greatness and how elaborately it was created.
5. Hala Koszyki
Moving on to gastronomical places. Discovering city can be quite stressful, so in such cases nice cafe with pleasant ambiance is in need. That's when Hala Koszyki comes to you. This building encompasses a whole range of various eateries for every taste and pocket. Instagram inspired design, relaxing music and unbelievable choice of meals will add even more joy to even weekends.
The night, when all magical creatures come out of darkness and supernatural powers awaken, is around the corner. So this post is entirely dedicated to Halloween.
Abandoned places, creepy dolls, spider webs and mysterious music - all of this is waiting for you down below.
When black cats prowl and pumpkins gleam, may luck be yours on Halloween.
