Full summer: Outdoor Magazine 18 – issue full of summer!

Warning: contains highly addictive content. The publisher is not responsible for: soreness in the muscles, adrenaline surges and endorphin rushes, temporary breathing problems (because such views), sleepless nights (because it's a waste of time to sleep), cramped mornings (because the wave of enthusiasm carried us too far), As well as the smell of a campfire trailing behind a person for days, cobwebs in the hair, stains of wild fruit juice on the hands and all the other fantastic "ailments" you can get this summer in the woods, mountains and at the lake. This is Outdoor Magazine 18 – a magazine for foodies.

Outdoor Magazine #18 – summer 2022 (il. Dorota Piechocinskaya)

It's the fullness of summer. A few months of adventures ahead. What to do? This is a good question that we often ask ourselves. When we create a magazine, we try to share our ideas, as well as invite to the conversation interesting people, whose experiences and experiences motivate us to act, and often facilitate the exploration of a direction or area. Descriptions of travel destinations, guides to sometimes sophisticated activities, accounts of small and large expeditions are mixed with content that at first glance seems to be „incompatible”. Because who saw to write about music and literature on such an occasion? Show sculptures and photomontages? Give tips for amateur photographers or culinary enthusiasts? And also: ask a poet to write about wading in the mud?

However, this is what we have chosen to do, because life is colorful and full of pleasures on various fronts. This is what we like, this is what we want to share, and we hope you will find joy in it too. That's why we consistently go against the tide, disregarding the current that in the opposite direction brings money, haste, stress and screen-hours. OM we do first of all honestly and according to what is in our souls.

Is this what the outdoor lifestyle is supposed to look like? And who said it has to look like anything at all? You decide for yourself, and we can only hope that the new OM will make it easier for you.
