Sprzedaj lodówkę i jedź!
Różnica między ludźmi, którzy realizują swoje marzenia, a całą resztą świata nie polega na zasobności portfela. Chodzi o to, że jedni całe życie czytają o dalekich lądach i śnią o przygodach, a inni pewnego dnia podnoszą wzrok znad książki, wstają z fotela i ruszają na spotkanie swoich marzeń. „Gringo wśród dzikich plemion” [...]
