Creative Mornings in Warsaw!

A series of Creative Mornings meetings is being launched in Warsaw! This is a free monthly breakfast lecture series designed for the creative community. The history of Creative Mornings breakfasts together dates back to 2008, when Tina Roth-Eisenberg started the Creative Mornings series of inspirational lectures in Brooklyn as an ongoing, accessible event for New York's creative community. The concept was and is simple: breakfast and a short talk on a Friday morning, once a month, on a single, top-down suggested topic. Each event is free and open to everyone. Also, we as organisers as well as partners of the event operate free of charge in order to spread the idea of creative networking and meeting together. Currently, Creative Mornings meetings take place periodically in more than 215 cities in 65 countries around the world. And from November, Warsaw will also join the list. The capital's series will be inaugurated by a meeting with Kasia Lazar devoted to the theme of 'Rhythm'. (more…)

Beaujolais – wine for the impatient?

Every third Thursday in November, bottles of a young wine called beaujolais nouveau are opened all over the world. Most notably in Japan, a rosé version of this wine has even been created especially for the market there. A young wine, only just bottled, but brilliantly promoted. What is behind the phenomenon of this wine festival? Aneta Zabiegała set off on a Beaujolais Nouveau trail to the south of France, and persistently wandered between Mâcon and Lyon to see if, in addition to young, easily drinkable and unmemorable wines, it was possible to find interesting, avant-garde and outstanding Beaujolais there. And that's how she ended up with some of the most interesting wine producers in the area. Follow in its footsteps to the sunny south of France, visit the vineyards and drink the outstanding bottles created from the gamay variety (and more). (more…)

(Polski) Przewodnik po Stambule

There is a shock at first. Always. Because you seemingly know what to expect, but the real city is more impressive than the numbers in guidebooks or the outlines drawn on maps. Istanbul is overpowering. It hits all the senses, turns heads. The first reaction - intimidation. Or perhaps even a sense of being overwhelmed by the sounds, the constant movement around. But this passes with the first cup of strong, bitter tea, which wakes you up and grounds you in new territory. It also passes with the first breakfast of a million plates: with crunchy green peppers, black olives, kaymak topped with honey and eggs in sour yoghurt. It passes with the first ferry ride connecting two parts of the city and two continents. (more…)

Bauhaus apartment

As you ascend the maroon, unique terrazzo staircase, you have the impression that you are stepping back to the turn of the 20/30s, a period full of energy when the Bauhaus spirit was taking over Europe and Warsaw was called the Paris of the North. The "Bauhaus" apartments are located in the Functional House at the intersection of Jakubowska and Estońska streets. The building is a great example of functionalism. The furnishings of the apartment is the result of several years of searching for an appropriate form of interior design for the House. The owners were inspired by the vision of what apartments could have looked like at that time. Original, auction-searched, meticulously restored furniture, designed and made in the spirit of Bauhaus ideas, give the place a unique character. (more…)
