Hey! Nice to know that you're reading. Few facts about me.

At my core is a belief that the best travel happens through people, not itineraries. Every recommendation, every hidden spot, every unexpected detour, it all matters. When you explore with me, you’re getting a local who’s invested in helping you make the most out of your weekend.

I’m not a tour guide - I’m a local who loves the place where I live. Whether it’s a weekend escape, a food crawl, or just wandering the backstreets, the goal is to make the Tricity feel like yours.

4-6

4-6 morning walks/week is one of the modes how I explore Gdańsk on foot.

5

I'm using 5 languages on a weekly basis: English for work; Ukrainian for friends and family; Norwegian for to do's and comments; russian at home; Polish in the city.

15+

15+ craft beer venues visited across Tricity (with specific tap counts: Pułapka - 13, Labeerynt - 10).

20+

20+ Tricity districts personally assessed with qualitative notes (Piecki-Migowo, Siedlce, Brętowo, Jaśień, Oliwa, Wrzeszcz, Orłowo, Przymorze Małe, Gdynia center, Old City, Young City, Działki Lesne, Leszczynki, Jelitkowo, Kamienny Potok, etc.).

I've traveled enough to know that the best moments happen when a local takes you somewhere you'd never find on your own. That one conversation, that hidden street, that place where everything just clicks.

Countless times we travered across Tricity from Wejherowo to the Old Town. Alex is a good companion - eager for discovery!
