9. Your Best Ski Trip you have done
For me, the most important in skitouring is an adventure and to meet other culture through mountains. Trip to Macedonia was one of my favorites - we did few nice downhills, but the biggest fun was to create trips without any advice from guides (there is no trails, no shelters, no guides, no mountain rescue, no rules).

17. Future Goals and Plans and Ambitions
10 years ago, when I was working in a corporation in Cracov my big dream was to find a job where I can ride in every powder day. There wasn't a job like this in my home town, so I started my own company. I achieved my dream. Now I want to help other people. I created a foundation and 10% from every skitour course we allocate in foundation account. Every month we transferring money to a person who really needs it. My big dream is to help more. I believe that a person who was a good life should help people who weren't so lucky. We are equal!
