To keep this page concise, here's just a handful of links, covering my personal and professional profile.
- My picture
- My professional CV at LinkedIn (PDF)
- My Facebook profile (mostly in Polish)
- My sailing website
My partner (wife) is Natalia Szymanska (her CV to be published here soon), who is more into educational/NGO/community-oriented aspects of the activity. We plan to be active as a team, although nothing is written in stone. Two akitas are with us wherever we can take them.
Our goals in/related to the OLPC project:
1. Get trained as an independent deployment and support team, covering both technology and education aspects.
2. Get involved on the long-term basis in OLPC implementation in Asia and other areas, preferably close to the sea.
3. Develop material base (sailing vessel, technical equipment, funding) to operate as a mobile deployment, support and training unit for remote communities, that can be accessed from the sea.
