He has adventure in his blood. It's there since his college days  in Poland. That's when he realized it could be a ticket out of the repression of his native country.

From Canoandes 2006

Andrzej Piętowski, the spirit and soul of the group —always in the center of attention— and a man of many skins. Trained as a mathematician, ... paddler, leader of  the Canoandes Whitewater Kayaking Expedition which explored rivers in Central and South America, head of  the 2000 National Geographic expedition to locate once for all the source of the Amazon, he is open to everyone and ready for everything. He is on a mission, and despite his age, he is a dreamer and still holds a youthful desire to change the world. Recently, he started a foundation to teach young Indians in the remote Colca Canyon, Peru, the English language, so they can stay in the region and find employment in the tourist industry.
