Uciekam stąd - Artura Kurasińskiego Newsletter
Drodzy czytelnicy,
Pijcie dużo wody, ładujcie akumulatory, łapcie słońce i odpoczywajcie. W tym roku udało mi się zaplanować 1,5 miesiąca wakacji więc widzimy się tutaj w sierpniu.
Ponieważ temperatury w Polsce będą dochodziły do 40 stopni to uciekam połazić w raz z Maćkiem Budzichem i wesołą ekipą po Islandii a potem wraz z rodziną pozwiedzać Norwegię.
No i czytać, czytać i jeszcze raz czytać papierowe książki ponieważ jak odkryłem całkiem niedawno nic tak mnie nie relaksuje i resetuje mózgu jak skupienie się na lekturze.
Czego i Wam serdecznie życzę.
Do zobaczenia!
Artur Kurasiński
