Mózg w podróży - jak samotne podróże kształtują nasze nawyki | Ola Mae Orlikowska | TEDxWarsaw

Have you recently experienced joy while watching the sun peek through the trees? Have you stopped the car to capture a wondrous landscape outside your window? Ola went a step further, or rather, went on a solo bike ride to experience the world with all her senses. In her speech, she talks about experiencing joy alone, about the power of rediscovering yourself. Simply giving yourself the luxury of exploring the world solo is enough. Ola is a graduate of Columbia College Chicago, a photographer, author of a book, and host of the Projekt Cebula podcast. During the pandemic, she embarked on a solo journey across Europe, cycling 15,000 km and visiting 12 countries. From one of them, she brought back her most treasured souvenir of the trip – her black cat, Fryderyk. For her travel talk, she received the Journalists' and Audience Awards at the Kolosy festival. Today, she runs her own company and passionately tells people's stories through photos and lifestyle films. In her free time, she spreads optimism and helps people cope with loneliness. What makes her stand out is her loud laugh. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
