I dove in many great locations: Australian Great Barrier Reef, Honduras Roatan Island, Portugal, even cold dark lake in Poland.

Some were extremely deep, some shallower, blue water, bright colored fish and coral, wrecks, caves and all the fun a diver could have, “flying” amongst all that beauty.

But where I would love to take a nitrogen breath next is Grenada, Isla Mujeres or other diving spot where Jason deCaires Taylor places his extremely absorbing art underwater, and the marine life immediately takes over, creating an artificial reef. Most of his sculptures are within 5 meters (16 ft) from the surface, so you don’t need to be PADI certified, experienced diver tobe  able to admire this magnificent view. Grab your snorkels and head to one!

New Puppy!

by zuzia | 1 Comment

After months of postponing and occasional visit to local shelters, we finally picked the new member of The Bibcis family!

Even though we had always preferred  big dogs and searched for such, after seeing “Speckles” online, her poor eyes and sweetness,

decided to drive all the way to Darien, GA (1,5 h or so) to pick her up.

Amazing people from the HART organization kept her there for a while and Dr Blackburn took care of her and does it with other abandoned dogs in need until they find new owners or need to be put down…

Emilka named her Honey and so she is, our cute puppy.

According to the vet, she might be a mix of Jack Russell and an Australian Cattle dog. Not sure where the calmness comes from- both breeds are little crazy and very lively, she is extremely shy, quiet and just wants to be held climbing onto our lap constantly.

It might be her bad experiences, people abusing her etc (she might be between 1 and 2 years old already)- nobody knows any details of her past.

Anyway, welcome home Honey!

PS: her first night she slept… in our bed. A new family member that is…

Jumpy Blog

by zuzia | No Comments

My friend back from Poland just sent me a link to his buddy’s blog, where they posted a picture of me joyfully jumping in Portugal severals years ago.

The blog itself is funny and all there really is are the funky jumps all around the place. Well done!

I love monkeys. This one was peeking through the window of a Kathmandu temple. Sometimes annoying- grabbing goods from your bags, other times cute and cuddly, they surely can make any travels more interesting.

Of course the wild ones are the biggest pleasure to watch (provided they are not a 7 foot furious female- see my earlier Indonesia post). I could sit for hours and just stare at them playing, swinging and calling each other!

Three business and five personal e-mails, six social networks accounts, two blogs, three websites, several bank accounts (each in different bank…), twenty on-line stores, PayPal, ebay, YouTube and hundreds more…

How can you possibly remember all these?! Having the same login and password everywhere is not very secure… Storing them in your head is usually a hard task for your brain or simply impossible. Having it all on some spreadsheet, stored in your phone or even worse: written on a piece of paper  carried around in your wallet is too risky.

How about one place that will store, remember and guard all your passwords while you can focus on more important things (like where to sign-up for another account)?

Roboform will do it for a one-time fee of $34. You can manage all your passwords (no limits here, so you can go crazy) and log everywhere automatically. Checkout with one click instead of filling these looong registrations. All passwords get encrypted for 100% security and synchronized so you can have them backed up and access from any computer!

I’m not a fan of sodas, but know few who are…

Pepsi has dropped $20M in SuperBowl TV ads to for Social Media Campaigns.

They will give away that money to the most “refreshing” ideas people might have to help

others in need, their community or launch some projects having huge positive impact on life or environment.

You can vote for your favorites and help them get $5,000-$250,000

or submit your own and spread the word about it!

It won’t make me drink Pepsi, but surely vote and spread the buzz for them

(and make the others drink it probably).
