Camping

Not so long time ago in August I went north camping with my friends to Kawartha Lakes. I have to tell you that was really intense trip which included canoeing and portage. I have never canoeing in my life before (well I practice before that trip once) so doing that for over an hour was hard. All my arm was soreness next day and I couldn't look at that boat anymore. If you never tried canoeing you definitely should try. You will understand how hard was keep balance in that unstable boat and not fallen to water. One quick move and you are in water with all your equipment. Another thing on which one you should keep your eye on is hidden rocks. Well I am telling you this for reason and based on my own experience. Yeap you are right me and my husband stocked on one of the rock and couldn't move at all. Our boat was in the meadow of the rock and I have to tell you I was panic. When we hit the rock our canoe start shaking like crazy but thanks God we kept balance. But imagine yourself in that awkward situation what would you do if you were me? Nobody can help you because everybody are on the same kind of unsteady boat. All I could think was "Please just don't flip over". Anyway somehow we moved all canoe form that rock and could paddle again. Another very hard part of our trip was portage. Especially for my poor husband which one had to carry that peace of shit to another lake. 
But beside those minus my trip was amazing. Beautiful view, clean water and air, clean sky, fire and company of my friends. 
I tried fallen to sleep the quickest I could because I was afraid of bears which one live somewhere over there :/

Welcome in Canada-again

I left Bermuda two months ago and remember this awful feeling when I had to say "Good bye" to my dear friends. I hugging them and that was that moment when I truly realized that this is over. So I began cry like a child. I looked around trying to remember every single second which is left.
In plain wasn't much better but obviously I stop crying.
Right now all this feeling gone and I am look forward what future will bring to me. I have to stay another year (at least) in Canada so is good chance to know this country better.
I was thinking of travel to Quebec city in fall/winter and develop my language skills ( I started learn French).
Of course my travel list is longer and included Vancouver, Calgary... and that's pretty much on my mind right now. RIGHT NOW

Sailing, partying and so much more fun

I am sorry for grammar mistakes I am not a English native speaker:)

The best way to get nice tan, spend nice time and have a lot of time is sailing. If you haven't your own boat you HAVE TO find friend who boat has:) Is simple. Of course you can party on the beach and evry 5 minutes take sand out of your towel but I would rather avoid doing this constantly. So one more time you need friend with both. When you finally meet one your life will be much easier and that give you a lot of opportunity. What kind of opportunity. Let see... first at all sailing is something incredible. Is combination fun with sport, party and relax. Everything depends how you like spend your free time. You can read a book in some quiet bay, be part of team at sailboat, enjoying water sport (water skiing etc), diving and admire water life, join to party. The last one require explanation because is something what I have never experienced before. Strange people meet each other somewhere and attached their boats to each other and start partying. Try to imagine how many people you can meet that way! Is easier than meet people at the bar.

Leaving the Island

Hello evryone
First I am sorry for grammar mistakes I am not native speaker.

Next month I will leave the Island. That's make me feel confuse. I would like to stay  forever but Island is not provides the basic needed which is work. I can't afford empty space in my resume anymore. Anyway this one year has been great experience and I will never forget evry single second from my adventure.

If you are consider moveing to the Island just do it. Of course you must have out going personality to be happy here. Lifestyle is just never ending party whatever if on a boat or private bbq with close friends. People who likes big dancing events, clubing could be little disappointed. On the Front street is couple nice clubs but they are small and sometimes you are the only one person on the dance floor. I love dance and can do it all night but selection in Bermuda is limited.



I don't know if it is my last post or not but I hope someday someone find my blog and find searches information. Fell free ask in comment or on my e-mail.

Devoshire Bay and my dog = good time


I am sorry you had to wait couple months for this post. I will not tell you any excuse but can promise you that I will try update my blog more often.

I live close to Devonshire bay and this is reason why I am there almost evry day. Always takeing with me a book (right now Cobo- grait by the way) and spend there an hour. First what I am doing when I arrive is let my dog enjoy her walk and look how she's playing around. After all we can go to part where are trees and sit under one of them. 











For fun of fish I have really good news. You can buy fresh fish on the Devonshire Bay from fisherman. I hear that they are selling on weekends. Me and my husband are not big fun of fish so we have never bought anyone.

Wildlife of Bermuda

Hello!

I have been thinking about my new post since I finished the last one. Nothing interesting came to mind until now. I decided to describe what is around me everyday- wildlife of Bermuda.

Tree Frogs
My favourite are the tiny cute frogs, you have to agree with me that they looks so friendly. Tree frogs spends most of their time in trees but sometimes they come down where you can see them. Once in the evening when I was closing the windows one of them jump into my room. I gently caught the frog under a jam-jar and let it go outside.



When my husband moved to Bermuda he couldn't sleep a couple nights because the tree frogs sing all night. They start when it is dark outside. I made video to show what they sounds like. Video is not so loud but believe me they are.

Bullfrog 
Another frog is not so sweet and much bigger than my small friends. If you have dog or cat watch out because this frog can be poisonous. However, the poison is on the skin and will not be releasen unless frog is bitten or is stressed. I found pictures where someone has a frog in their hands, so this frog isn't dangerous to our health.

                                                 

Spiders
Now the worst part of my post is about spiders, I hate these creepy, disgusting monsters! But they exist and in Bermuda you can see them everywhere. I tried to find their name's online and found much more, lot of pictures what made me sick which stopped me researching more. All I know is they are everywhere and you have to watch out for webs. This guy on the pictures lives in my backyard :/

 Couple days ago my husband took me to a forest where I met the biggest spider in my life! I almost had heart attack when  we saw this! So remember never go to places with a lot of tress! I also found excellent pictures but I don't want to this monster every time when I open my blog. Sorry guys but for better pictures you have to research yourself :)

Lizards
Now I can take you to a better part of my note. Ladies and gentleman please meet colourful lizards! Just like the disgusting spiders,  you can meet lizards everywhere. Big, medium, small on the tree, wall, on the ground just look closely. If you are lucky you can look at them a little longer and they watch you. Just be careful of your movement because they are very skittish.



Besides the described above creatures you can also see a lot of birds, fishes, cockroaches and much much more. If you want I can describe other creatures for you as well.

Johnny Barners

Hello guys!

I was thinking what I should writte in my next note. I wasn't sightseeing this week so there is nothing new for me to recommend, then I remembered that  a couple days ago I went into town in the morning on a scooter for first time  to Hamilton. I met a man who makes you happier on your way to Hamilton. I have never met someone so much positive and open for other people like Johnny Barnes. It's hard to find good words to describe this person. But what I know this human has so much love,  he waves, send kisses and blesses you everymorning you really feel better. He stay on the roundabout every workday from 4:00 to 10:00 am. This 90 year old man has his own statue and bench. For me this is something unbelieable that someone is able wake up so early whoever in sun or rain and go bless drivers. I hear like people call him Mr. Happy Man, which I 100% agree!





To ksee what I am talking about watch this short movie

If I can be honest more people deserve to be called Happy in Bermuda. Strangers stop you on the street and ask about day. I have never seen so many smiles and happy people than in Bermuda. You feel that every "good morning", "how are you" is honest. Sometimes in my country, within a store that thiese gestures are fake, they only do this because they are required too. Anyway I am pretty sure that this is the case in most places.

Remember be happy, smile, stop complaining, stop gossiping, stop laughing at weaknesses of other people and take the most what you can from every day because you have just have one life. I guarantee that life will be easer and fate give you everything back.

xoxo next time

Witam!

Zastanawiałam się jaką notkę powinnam napisać i jakoś nic nie przychodziło mi do głowy. Przez cały tydzień nie widziałam nic nowego co mogłabym polecić. Nie chciałam też opisywać coś co sama widziałam już kilkakrotnie. Szukałam czegoś swieżego i dopiero w środę spotkałam na swojej drodze najbardziej pozytywną osobę na świecie! Jonny Barners to 90 letni mężczyzna, który każdego dnia nie ważne jaka jest pogoda idzie na rondo i pozdrawia każdego kto akurat przejeżdża. Śle pocałunki, macha, życzy miłego dnia. Patrząc na jego twarz widać szczęśliwego człowieka a co lepsze ta pozytywna energia przechodzi na Ciebie. Nigdy przenigdy w swoim życiu nie spotkałam kogoś równie pozytywnego. A już na pewno nie w Polsce, człowieka w zakładzie psychiatrycznym zamkneli gdyby przez kilkanaście lat swojego życia stał na rondzie i machał do ludzi. Nie jeden by mu pokazał środkowy palec, wyzwał od debili. Jonny Barners dostał już swój pomnik i własną lawkę na której może usiąść. Nie stety stan zdrowia, wiek nie pozwala mu na ciągłe stanie od 4:00-10:00 dzień w dzień.

Jednak nie tylko ten staruszek jest tutaj taką pozytywną postacią, ale niemal wszyscy. Ludzie zatrzymują Cię na ulicy pytają o dzień, mówią dzieńdobryn ot tak. Możesz sobie to wyobrazić w Polsce? Ja pamiętam panie za ladą wiecznie nabormuszone i nieszczęśliwe. Widać, że każde "miłego dnia" to bardziej odgórny nakaz aniżeli słowa z szczerego serca.

Co Ci mogę poradzić czytelniku to bądź szczęśliwy każdego dnia, kochaj ludzi, nie wyśmiewaj inności, nie pokazuj palcem. Wszyscy jesteśmy tacy sami nie zależnie od pochodzenia, koloru skóry, przekonań.  Nie daj też sobie wmówić, że czegoś nie możesz. Ty sam decydujesz jak Twoje życie się potoczy. Ty i nikt inny uwierz mi. Ja wierzę w karmę i że los odpłaci nam tym samym co my dajemy. Nie chcę ryzykować bo życie jest zbyt piękne i tylko jedno.

Pozdrawiam
