The winner is... Palma de Mallorca

According to "The Times", Palma de Mallorca is the best city in world to live. Last Sunday, the newspaper published a list of the 50 Best Cities in terms of quality of life . The capital of Balearic Islands has an attractive old part of the city with several beaches that are great for rambles and any kind of short or long distance walks as well as exceptional climate. Palma de Mallorca surpassed many other famous cities like Toronto, Auckland, Hoi An in Vietnam and Berlin. The list was created by a collaborative work of travel journalists. They prepared this ranking by using different statistics about the quality of life, infrastructure, gastronomy and climate. Palma de Mallorca was described by “The Times” as one of the most beautiful city in Spain. It’s not hard to get there!

Palma de Mallorca is not the only one city worth to see. The whole Island seems to be one of the most attractive and popular holiday destinations for tourists, mainly from Germany. The fact that is relatively cheap might be one reason. The vast majority of hotels in Mallorca offer sightseeing tours which are great opportunities to see many  gorgeous nd memorable places like Cap de Formentor, Jungle Parc or Rutas de Palma. Spring has just started which means that Summer begins in less than three months! Now it's a good time of the year to plan your trip in order to save money and time!

You can easily find affordable tickets offered by cheap European airlines like Ryanair and Wizzair.

spring is coming

There is no doubt that spring is coming and it's just around the corner. She inevitably knocks at our doors and windows and we are pleased to receive it after 5 months full of frostbitten fingers, runny nose, pile of scarves and hats. The sun comes out and thereby the bicycle season has officially started. Everyone should switch to this means of transportation! It can take you everywhere, even upstream, and you can breath with fresh air. Unfortunately, not every city has roads adopted for cyclists, however you can pretend to be rebel and cross some segments of the route using the sidewalk. 

How to prepare for bicycle season? 

If you have bicycle: 

- Dust it off

- lubricate the chain 

- inflate the tires 

- check the brakes 

If you don’t have bicycle: 

- I recommend buying a bicycle on flea market 

- For ambitious people I recommend visit in sport shop 

If you think that you don’t have bicycle, but in reality it lies tucked away in the attic: 

- Take car paint, sandpaper and remake your bicycle 

To increase the power and speed of pedalling, I highly recommend Edward Sharpe songs.

Passion as a Way of Life

There is nothing more beautiful then doing what you love, making your dreams come true and bringing joy to others. All this stuff you can meet in Michałków.

Crossing the threshold of the airport, called by local paragliders "łąka", you enter a totally different world. World, where the problem is loose propeller or slightly wet glide, other problems don't exist. It is something which can inspire everyone. Boys rise to a height and make aerobatics which don't seem to be pleasant and safe if you observe them from the ground. What I like the most about it is indescribable energy which boys derive from this passion. The team consist of people at different age who just share a passion - paragliding.

Being a witness of aerotricks you can see slaloms, spirals and chilling performances. You can also try to set a glide or fly in tandem with pilot -incredible feeling full of joy. I recommend to everyone! Brave people can enroll in the course of paragliding. Therefore, let's follow our passions with smile! Wings up!

like the crash reel

Last week I was with my friends in the mountains. To relax from the city we want to go to some pristine wilderness and epic landscapes. We were inspired by the "The crash reel" movie, so we decided to learn snowboarding.

We had a bruised knees and butts, but even so we had a lot of fun. Evenings we were sitting by the fireplace drinking mulled wine and Czech beer Zlatý Bažant.

Polish people more often and often choose this active form of rest. Overcrowded lifts are the best proof.
