"To cut all the influences of my previous life I had to take a
radical move." Two years ago Jakub took a radical decision: He
chose to live on the street. I met him months ago in a bar in
Berlin and had been electrified from our talk for days. His radical
choice next to his wise and sympathetic appearance made me curious:
I asked to get to know him better and do a interview. In our talk
he explains what he has gained from the time of two years living on
the street, what made him taking this step and how his life looked
like in the decades before. He also emphasise on his attitude
towards life and meaning: "There's only Two P's that are important
in life - People & Planet". About Jakub: Jakub is 38 years old
and currently living without a home in Berlin on the streets. While
following the professional path of his father in the beginning of
his career he became a navigation officer on a big ship. After his
father suddenly died due to a tragedy Jakub started to have bigger
and bigger troubles. He had realized back then that the job he was
doing didn't make him happy and knew that he has to change
something. He moved to Berlin and started into his new chapter.
After a while and realizing that his life is determined a lot by
expectations from friends and families he decided, from one day to
the other, not continue living "the normal life" anymore but to
live on the street. After two years he's planning to end this
chapter soon because he's found what he was looking for. More about
