About me

Hello! I’m Paweł – part-time web designer, full-time tinkerer, and someone who’s been building websites since dinosaurs roamed the internet. I spend most of my time juggling pixels, WordPress widgets, and mugs of strong tea (the British influence is real). But my life doesn’t revolve solely around a screen – I’m also into sawdust, screwdrivers, and scenic views.

From teacher to doer… or was it the other way around?

Before moving to the UK, I spent years teaching programming, IT and web design in Poland. Once a teacher, now I build things myself – websites, ideas, and occasionally, kitchen cabinets.
I’ve been creating websites since 2006, back when CMSs were more like DIY kits with missing instructions. I don’t just stick to WordPress – I know Joomla, Drupal, and good old-fashioned hand-coding. So yes, I can fix things when plugins throw a tantrum.

This blog is not for experts.

If you’re looking for cutting-edge frontend frameworks or debates about semicolons – you’re in the wrong pub.
This blog is for people who want to create something of their own, but don’t have a fortune to throw at a digital agency. Sometimes all it takes is one good nudge in the right direction. That’s what I’m here for – real tips, from someone who’s been there, broken that, and figured it out.

Not just web design

Although I live online, I also spend a suspicious amount of time offline… building my own house. By hand. In the UK. Yes, really. Bricks, woodwork, insulation – you name it.
So if you find the occasional DIY post popping up here, don’t be alarmed. It’s still me – just slightly dustier.

Escaping into the mountains

When I’m not designing or building (digitally or physically), I head to the hills. Hiking is my way to unplug, breathe, and remember there’s a world outside the browser window.
You’ll find photos and stories from my mountain trips on this blog – because for me, they matter just as much as code and concrete.

Why this blog?

I’m not selling anything here. I’m not fishing for clients. I just like sharing things that might be useful – for people who are trying to build something real, with limited time, budget, or patience.
So whether you’re here for tech tips, DIY ideas, or the occasional mountain photo – I hope you find something that sticks.

Got a question? Drop me a message. Who knows – your topic might become the next blog post. Or we’ll just have a good chat. That’s fine too.
