Although I am a reserved, quiet person, I have turned myself into an
entertaining, well-styled, knowledgeable speaker to achieve my goal. I have
over thirty lectures, which I update from time to time. I talk about my
favourite subjects smoothly, with a change of tone, humour and seriousness when
one is needed, and in a way that is easy to understand. True, my quick thinking
makes me prone to rambling, so I'm grateful when the audience tells me I'm
speeding up too much.
Theoretical knowledge is really enjoyable when it is put to the test in the
field. I stopped counting my guided tours a while ago, I stopped at 100. Theory
and practice are equally important for me. I am pleased to see that the term
'forest bathing' has recently become popular in Japan. I have experienced the
beneficial effects of forest walking first hand. I definitely feel better after
a hike. If I were a doctor, I would prescribe a day a week of nature walks for
everyone. It is a significant improvement in physical and mental well-being.
Exploring nature is perhaps even more fun for children than for adults, because
they are more adventurous and the forest offers them a wide range of
interesting things to do. I'm also happy to take schoolchildren out in the
field. This is even more important than you might think because of our urban
lifestyle, where it is easy to become disconnected from nature and see it as
alien to our living environment, which we all have a common interest in
protecting. So we need to invite children even more into the green and show
them the wonder of life.
The Morimus
funereus and similar large arthropods are guaranteed to fascinate children.
Although mushrooms are my special favourite, as a naturalist I know the local
wildlife very well. Since 2017, the forest as a wonderful ecosystem has been my
favourite subject. It's true, a mushroom hunter finds most mushrooms in the
trees, because the forest is the perfect habitat for my favourites. It's a
treasure trove of incomparable treasures, where I like to introduce adults and
children alike.I would be happy to expand my activities. The 21st century needs people
like me who are intrinsically motivated to preserve and showcase these values.
I am altruistic, many lectures and tours are free, but I need a financial base
for my trips to collect material/expand my knowledge. Therefore, I would like
you to support me with a commission.
