Bartłomiej Nowak

A man of numerous passions and interests: he swims, dives, climbs, and much of his freetime is spent on a bike sadle or hiking in the mountains. He co-created the unique team of Crazyguides in Cracow, who revealed to the wider public the little jewel of socialist architecture in Cracow, the Nowa Huta district.
