Captain, Explorer, Amateur Photographer


BIO
Dreams – with each fulfilled one, there are more to be realized.
I began exploring Polish landscapes in high school, and that’s how it started. I became fascinated with the expanse of the seas and the surrounding lands.
I learned sailing on the Baltic waves. From there, I ventured further: the North Sea, the Arctic Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Caribbean.
I felt that it was wonderful to move from one amazing place to another. It is my passion and work, and on board – cooperation, prudence, and safety are crucial.

Gosia is a very positive person. She almost always smiles and positively influences the participants of our trips.
She has extensive sailing experience, having been a professional captain for many years.
She joined Men of Sea almost at the beginning and has lead many of our voyages in Svalbard and northern Norway.
