ABOUT ME

 

Welcome to Mind The Basque!

I’m Danusia, a Polish woman who is blessed enough to live in the Basque Country. My life is fuelled by nature, travelling, including many  solo trips

and a never-ending quest to find balance and wellbeing.

From daily ´mind the gap...´ to Mind The Basque.

I moved from London to the Basque Country in March 2020,

and I’ve been exploring the region ever since. I'm passionate about sharing my journey and the healing power of nature with others, so I invite you to explore this amazing piece of Earth with me. 

In Mind The Basque I connect my organisational skills and my enthusiasm for travelling.

What exactly I do

MIND THE BASQUE EXPERIENCE

Sunset chasers, free spirits, independent solo travellers,

couples who celebrate something special, amateur photographers....

Maybe you want to slow down and have a mental detox, take time off in secluded , agriculture accommodation,

do some short trekking, find the right spot for yoga or to meditate, or you look for a place to surprise your loved one (with a proposal :) in one of my secret locations at the sunset time, also take pictures of Basque landscapes,

meeting on the way Basque horses, Pottokas  or just simply you want to enjoy walking through endless fields

with breathtaking sea views.

Classes of Spanish/Basque language and then surfing on the Basque waves or going for yoga on the beach...

 How do you like this scenario? :)

If you would like to add city/town tour, visit cultural places and  get the taste of the best Basque food and drinks

( pintxo pote, jumping from one bar to another is a must:), the best quality is here.

For anyone who  would like to get deeper into Basque cuisine, there are cooking classes available.

I will recommend only local providers.

Nature is a healer and an ultimate luxury.

Nature doesn´t require any materialistic compliments to enjoy it

and to feel unity with it.

Nature shares its power unconditionally, as long as you have enough of humility, respect

and understanding that you are not above it,

but rather part of the process.

Once you connect with nature, it becomes a real spiritual experience.

Mind The Basque is

 my invitation

to Basque Country .

The idea to create it

came from

my fascination

with Basque Country

and comprehension

of humans´ need to connect with nature and its unquestionable benefits for our mind, body and soul.

 

I would like to offer you

my personal travel experience and my advice which hopefully will lead

and help you

to enjoy incredible nature and wildness

of Basque Country.

 

When you leave

this place and you will miss it, but at the same time you will feel empowered, invigorated

and mentally nourished,

that means

I accomplished

my little mission:)
