Polska wersja poniżej :)Today’s blog post gonna be short and to the point. Christmas is approaching, which for me is a time full of warmth and peace. Although, given the pre-Christmas preparations and the crazyness we all get into, this peace does not come so easily at all. Nevertheless, once everyone sits down at the table for Christmas Eve dinner, that peace comes much easier.This end of the year...

In June I started learning a new language - German. This was due to the fact that from July I was to start working in a company where everything is in this language. Literally everything - meetings, emails, systems, internal documents, etc. It was a big jump into the deep ocean, and during those few months I managed to be excited and devastated a couple of times simultaneously about learning German....

October in Vienna is very charming. Since I've been living here, I've definitely had more time to explore each season in this city. This month has been unexpectedly warm and sunny, which encouraged us to go out for walks, spend time outdoors, or choose tables in café gardens instead of taking a table inside. And while outside, I admired the color change of the leaves on the trees - this is one of...

The question my two grandmas always ask me, to which I always answer the same thing - no, I don't miss it. For those who don't know, I'll quickly mention that I moved from Poland to Vienna permanently in April 2024. And as I am asked this question every single time when I’m back home, I thought why not to talk about this also here. So, do I miss Poland or not? My answer is still no :p but I'll explain...

I've been listening to the matcha diaries podcast, which released a new series of fall episodes. Cara and Leo talk about their autumn routines, the books they plan to read and what autumn brings with itself. And so while I was listening to these conversations, which I highly recommend by the way, I decided to pass on this autumnal inspiration, I took from them, here on the blog. Maybe I...

My routine is a bit out of the track, as I've been running in Poznan for the past week. Well, maybe not literally, but almost. Well, every time I tell myself that this time will be different. And (almost) every time it is still as before. Rutyna trochę zawalona, bo przez ostatni tydzień biegałam w Poznaniu. No, może nie dosłownie, ale prawie. Cóż, za każdym razem powtarzam sobie, że tym razem...

Today it’s gonna be very quick, because time is just running away from me, and the moving out (again?!) waits to be done. I'll tell you more about this, but later. Today's post is a true ode of gratitude.Dzisiaj krótko, bo czas mi ucieka, a przeprowadzka (znowu?!) czeka. O przeprowadzce jeszcze opowiem, za to dzisiejszy post to prawdziwa oda wdzięczności.I just turned 25, and sometimes I sit and have...

My first month in the job is over, and thus my trial period is over - in Austria the trial period is only one month! In the last week of July, I was talking to my colleague at work about how I was doing here, what kind of expectations I had/have, and suddenly my colleague said "You're putting too much pressure on you, you know?". This made me think about it.Mój pierwszy miesiąc w pracy się skończył,...

I recently watched a video on Lavendaire's channel about regaining balance and getting back to daily routines, or creating new ones. And I thought I'm just in that place where I need to find myself and my routines again. In Aileen's case it was returning from vacation, but in my case it is starting a full-time job.Ostatnio oglądałam filmik na kanale Lavendaire o odzyskiwaniu balansu i powrotu do codziennych...

Time flies like crazy - I've been living in Vienna for over two months now! Although I don't feel it at all, but my sense of time is a bit messy lately, and I often feel like something happened a few days ago, but it's actually been a few weeks. Nevertheless, during all this time I have made various observations about life in Vienna, and I am going to tell you about them in today's post!Czas leci...

It's been a third week in Vienna and a loooooot of different things have happened. And not all of them happened the way I wanted them to, so I figured out it was the perfect time to bring up this topic. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets pissed off about things I have no control over, and I still want to have an influence on them and want them to go as I want them to.Minął już trzeci tydzień w...

I can't believe I'm writing this, but I moved to Vienna. And it's for real! My adventure here began on Monday, April 29th - that day I arrived with the last backpack, and when my boyfriend came to pick me up at the train station I told him that I was finally here permanently and there’s no going back anymore. Two and a half years of a long-distance relationship is a very long time, and I am grateful...

Today briefly, because the moving out is still going on. 1.5 years ago I was doing exactly the same thing - moving out of one apartment to another place in Poznan and to Lodz and experiencing armageddon. This time I'm doing exactly the same thing but instead of moving to another city I'm moving... to another country.Dzisiaj krótko, bo wyprowadzka nadal trwa. 1,5 roku temu robiłam dokładnie to samo...
