More of Torup

Torup

Torup is a little village situated just a few km from Malmö. There is nothing special about Torup although it can offer a lot of space for recreation with its plenty of health-footpath so that you can work out your muscles. Here you can also admire a charming countryside and take a nice hot cup of coffee in the picturesque building that you can see on my photos.

A Short Saturday Walk







This time I'm goona write in Polish. Sorry for that, but it was long time since I wrote in this language. All those pictures I took today during my short promenade in my neighbourhood. I hope you'll like them.


Mysle, ze juz czas cos napisac po polsku. No wiec dzisiaj korzystajac z calkiem ladnej pogody, wybralismy sie na dlugi spacer. Samochod zostal tego dnia w garazu a ze soba wzialem tylko aparat fotograficzny. Na drodze naszego spaceru zrobilem pare zdjec okolicznego krajobrazu, McDonald's oraz jakas dziwacznie pomalowana budke, ktora stala sobie bez jakiegos konkretnego przeznaczenia na drodze naszego marszu. Temperatura niestety mimo pieknego slonca dalej w okolicach 10 stopni a to jest przeciez juz prawie maj. A mowi sie, ze klimat sie ociepla. No chyba nie tutaj w Skandynawi. Pamietam, jak bedac malym chlopcem chodzilem na pochod pierwszomajowy w krotkich spodenkach. Tutaj jednak tak juz jest. Po zimie przychodzi lato a po lecie zima ( no moze troche przesadzilem ). Patrzac jednak na te kolorowe zdjecia rozgrzewam sie ich widokiem, czego i Wam wszystkim zycze.

The purpose of life...



It was a common week-day. Nothing extraordinary happened. And yet, the older one gets the more you begin appreciate every day, every moment of your life. It’s simple as that. We tend to take so many things for granted forgetting often what really matters and what the real meaning of life is. Therefore I called my blog Jerry’s Frantic World as an attempt to find and cherish all those unforgettable moments which can only give you enough strength to surmount all difficulties and hard times. In my struggle to experience such feelings I often indulge in doing what I consider to be important and significant for my soul even if it seems maybe frantic and crazy sometimes. However I even like such seemingly simple things like e.g. walking down the street in the midday sun, reading a book, taking a couple of interesting pictures or playing the piano, etc.
“Life is like a box of chocolate – you never know what you gonna get”. That’s why I’m still searching for the real purpose of my being on this planet and I guess I’m not alone in that.

Formule 1 Hotel

On my way home I decided to stay in Formule I Hotel as I was pretty tired and I had still 650 km to drive. The hotel is located outside Berlin - in Brandenburg Park - in the neighbourhood of the other hotels like Hotel Etap and Hotel Ibis. The next day I could continue my journey to Sweden completely refreshed.

W powrotnej drodze do domu, zdecydowalem sie przenocowac w hotelu "Formule I" poniewaz bylem troche zmeczony a do domu zostalo mi jeszcze okolo 650 km. Hotel "Formule I" polozony jest w Parku Brandenburskim przy samej autostradzie niedaleko Berlina w otoczeniu paru innych hoteli takich jak Hotel Etap i Hotel Ibis. Nastepnego dnia moglem zatem kontynuowac moja podroz do Szwecji juz calkowicie wypoczety.

The King of the Road


Today I've visited a couple of car salesmen as I consider changing my BMW for an even bigger car, a so called SUV ( Sport Utility Vehicle ). My favourite SUV is a BMW -X5. When the salesman told me how much I would lose on this transaction, my jaw dropped. Well, I'm not going to make a losing bargain so I decided to keep my almost brand-new car two or three more years. In fact, a large SUV - and even a midsize one - consumes more or much more gas. Anyway, I can't help loving such cars as you are sitting higher, you have more space inside and you really feel like a king of the road. Hm...who knows, maybe in the future.



The King of the Road - BMW X5.

Odwiedzilem dzisiaj pare salonow samochodowych, poniewaz rozwazalem mozliwosc zamiany mojego dotychczasowego samochodu BMW na jeszcze wiekszy tzw. SUV ( Sport Utility Vehicle ). Moim faworytem w tej klasie jest BMW X 5. Kiedy sprzedawca oznajmil mi jednak ile stracilbym na tej transakcji to opadla mi po prostu szczeka. Nie zamierzam zatem przeprowadzic tej niekorzystnej dla mnie wymiany i dlatego zdecydowalem, ze zatrzymam moj prawie nowy samochod na jeszcze dwa, trzy lata. Poza tym tego rodzaju samochod (SUV) pali wiecej niz zwykly osobowy samochod, poza moze malymi modelami. No coz, zawsze podobaly mi sie tego rodzaju samochody z napedem na cztery kola, w ktorych siedzi sie wyzej, wiecej jest miejsca w srodku no i ma sie rzeczywiescie wrazenie, ze jest sie krolem drogi. Jezdzilem takimi samochodami wiec wiem o czym mowie. Hm...kto wie, moze jednak w przyszlosci...
