Did Marco Polo really get to China?

Why hadn’t vanilla bore fruits outside of Mexico for decades?

How were spices counterfeited over the centuries and how law treated it?

Jędrzej Majka will talk about all this in his presentation.

Jędrzej Majka – theologian and journalist by degree. His travels as a way of life began years ago, when he came by boat to the Bosphorus. Since then he has been driving, photographing, writing and speaking. The money earned in this way is spent on subsequent trips.
