Happy New Year 2025 and Welcome to ContactHive!

Hi there, and happy New Year 2025! 🎉

I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and are ready to tackle this new year with energy and big plans. For me, 2024 was a year full of challenges and progress on a project I deeply care about: ContactHive.

So, grab your coffee or tea, get comfortable, and let me share what’s brewing behind the scenes. 🚀

Building Strong Foundations: Lessons from the Wieliczka Salt Mines

This past weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to visit the Wieliczka Salt Mines in Kraków, and let me tell you—I was absolutely floored (no pun intended). The sheer ingenuity of humans to carve deep into the earth and create a labyrinth of tunnels is nothing short of breathtaking.

With a total of 300 kilometers of galleries and reaching depths of 327 meters, you can’t help but marvel at the monumental effort that went into this over centuries. And as I wandered through this subterranean wonder, one thought kept running through my mind: how critical it is to lay strong foundations. Without them, such feats of engineering would simply collapse under their own weight (and that’s one kind of failure no salt can fix).

Climbing My Mountain: My Journey into Full-Stack Development

Climbing My Mountain

It’s now been six months since I’ve been intensely dedicating myself to solidifying my foundations in full-stack development. Of course, in such a short time, I’ve only scratched the surface of this vast universe, but I felt the need to push the adventure further and embark on this long journey toward mastery.

After watching the documentary Kaizen by Inoxtag, which I highly recommend to anyone seeking a motivational boost, I realized I needed to climb my own mountain—a mountain with a real problem to solve. You might agree or disagree with Inoxtag’s approach, but the core message remains: seize opportunities to move forward and don’t get discouraged, even if the path is long and challenging. Even if you’re not yet an expert or haven’t accomplished great things, it’s crucial to persevere. The journey to the summit is tough and filled with obstacles, but with proper preparation and by advancing one step at a time, you can achieve things you never thought possible.

My First Post

Right now, I have a ton of ideas swirling around, and I’ve had to make some choices about what to prioritize with my current schedule. My goal is to create a portfolio site with a unique design, along with a blog space. But since I’m busy working on my next project, I’ve decided to start with this temporary blog, which you’re seeing here in this first post.

It felt essential to have a space where I can continue sharing my thoughts and keep you updated on my upcoming projects. I value this blog a lot—not only for myself (I might be the only reader for now!) but also for you, future visitors.
