About Darek...
I'm a philologist by education and passion.
My interests include linguistics, literature, travels, geography, and learning languages.
Travelling is a great passion of mine. I like getting to know new places and meeting people living there.
The authors I am truly impressed with are John Grisham, Ernest Hemingway, Erskine Caldwell, Graham Greene, John Cheever, Francis Scott Fitzgerald and others.
I collect postage stamps, postcards, coins and maps.
I have a collection of over 1500 postcards from all continents.

If possible, I would like to receive a typical tourist postcard from your place. Thanks in advance!
