Photography: Robert Doisneau is my guru. Traveling: the travel of my life still b4 me (Africa, and somewhere up there;-). Modern literature: no. one on my list is Ken Bugul and her "Rue Felix-Faure" (love this subtle poetry in the prose), but always and 4ever in my heart Ryszard Kapuscinski for his reportages and journals from Africa. Art: Edward Hopper, Olga Boznanska, Tamara Lepmicka, and of course, which shouldnt b a surprise for anybody, impressionists loved not only 4 playing with colors but also for their braveness of breaking and going beyond the borders of their days. Theatre: would drop in every theatre on my way just 2 smell the dust of the curtains and feel the energy of rehearsals. like everything well directed and acted. Other: dance (swing jazz), French music, language and couisine (all 2gether would b nice;-), historical and cultural background of African countries, sudoku. Addicted 2 (and fighting with only some of them) lomi lomi nui massage, ptasie mleczko, walks in Ujazdowski park in Warsaw and coffee time b4 work, taking 2much photos in one time and place. and now... starting 2b an addict film festival and live music concerts goer...
