  • Podrรณลผowanie at Career Break
    Oct 2022 - Apr 2024 ยท 1 yr 7 mos

    I took a career break to embark on an enriching journey across Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, where I immersed myself in the diverse cultures of the region. During this time, I focused on learning Spanish and exploring various countries, often traveling by hitchhiking, boat-hitching, and camping in the wild to push myself out of my comfort zone. In addition to my travels, I volunteered along the way, which allowed me to connect deeply with local communities and contribute meaningfully to the places I visited. I also took the opportunity to acquire new skills such as sailing, kitesurfing, diving, and hiking. This sabbatical not only expanded my cultural understanding but also enhanced my resilience, adaptability, and problem-solving skills in unfamiliar and challenging environments. I am now ready to bring this enriched perspective and renewed energy back into my professional career.
