Why is China better to live in than Poland... there are several reasons, but the most important one - because there is no Radio Maryja here and no matter what antenna Father Derektor buys, he won't reach here anyway. And then there is the Internet... but there is democracy on the Internet and I don't have to listen to it, even accidentally. And in Poland? When you simply move the analog knob or digitally select subsequent radio stations, you will always stop at RM!!!

Today I received new photos from the photographer, one video, but in general most of the photos are suitable for publication. I went back to the previous photo studio, the last photo lab actually messed up my photos. Pale colors, mismatched contrast, it looked pathetic. I even started to suspect that there was something wrong with my talent or that I had a bad camera. Today, out of 38 photos, several are really great and I'm happy with most of them. I'll try to publish it tomorrow if I have time!

Yesterday I added new photos, and today I launched the COLUMN section. I invite everyone who wants to get to know China better.

I didn't believe it until I saw it for myself. I have heard of beggars in China who fake a disability to gain pity and make money. Today I saw my grandfather standing in a dark street, about 100 meters away there is a large intersection and a market, they are always begging there. He stood completely alone, I emphasize he stood and cleaned the wheelchair and adjusted it with a pillow. Incredible! These beggars are already chasing people like zombies. Recently, a woman was tugging at us and calling us to give her money. She didn't look poor or hungry at all. She was returning home, and when she saw a white man, she stretched out her hand and chased me.

Why are people so mean? Some nasty woman stole my text and published it on gazeta.pl. Three months ago, I sent her my text about rich people in Shenzhen, about the opportunities young people have. She rejected it and said that I was writing untruths because the Chinese countryside was poor, and now she published exactly the same topic. Cholera! You can see that this woman has zero creativity, I'm surprised her boss gives her money to travel to China. And so I will always have a better idea and will publish a good article about China faster on this website or in some normal and honest newspaper/monthly. I wish her career would end soon.
