Minęło 3 tygodnie od mojej podróży do Amsterdamu. Na zaproszenie Patagonii byłam uczestnikiem 2026 Repair Tech Summit Survey and Recap.. Emocje sięgały zenitu, teraz kiedy przyszedł czas na ewaluację mogę na spokojnie o tym opowiedzieć. Pierwsze co zrobiłam po powrocie to zadzwoniłam do mamy i powiedziałam, że dziękuję , że nauczyła mnie upcyclingu jak byłam mała, kiedy obcinała stare skarpetki i robiła z nich ściągacze do bluz, kiedy z dużych ubrań, które przychodziły w paczce z Ameryki od jakiejś cioci szyła nam małe ubrania - Bo w sklepie nie było nic.. to była konieczność nie moda 🔥 Teraz kiedy upcycling stał się ideą, kiedy łączy ludzi i na Instagramie można oglądać piękne rolki o tym jak ktoś kupuje bluzę na szmateksie i robi z tego inną myślę sobie, że nasz upcycling w krwiobiegu mamy bo byliśmy biedni.. tak, trzeba to jasno powiedzieć. Podróż do Amsterdamu nauczyła mnie również tego że pomimo strachu stresu trzeba przed do przodu nie poddawać się.. bo wszyscy myślimy It’s been three weeks since my trip to Amsterdam. At Patagonia’s invitation, I attended the 2026 Repair Tech Summit. The excitement was intense, but now that the time has come to reflect, I can talk about it calmly. The first thing I did upon returning was call my mom to thank her for teaching me upcycling when I was little—back when she’d cut up old socks to make cuffs for sweatshirts, or sew small clothes for us out of the oversized garments sent in packages from an aunt in America. There was nothing in the stores back then... it was a necessity, not a fashion statement. 🔥 Now that upcycling has become a movement—connecting people and filling Instagram feeds with beautiful Reels of someone buying a thrift-store sweatshirt and transforming it into something new—I realize that upcycling is in our blood simply because we were poor... yes, that needs to be said clearly. The trip to Amsterdam also taught me that despite the fear and stress, you have to keep moving forward and not give up... because we all think alike, and every one of us feels that stress. Maybe I’ll share more about it another time, but for now, I want to thank the photographer, Tom Bergman, for these beautiful photos.
