My name is Mariusz Kedzierski and I’m 23-year-old Polish artist. Mostly, I make drawings. There is nothing special, except for one thing – I was born without arms.

But for me disability（残疾）doesn’t mean that I can’t live my own, great life. It doesn’t mean that I have to give up my dreams. Art has been my way of life for 7 years. Since that time I have drawn over 700 drawings that took me 15,000 hours. Thanks to my hard work and determination , I got 2nd prize “Best Global Artist” in Vienna in 2013. I participated in exhibitions in Cracow, Vienna, Oxford, Wroclaw and more.

Now I am travelling around the Europe, drawing on the streets of Berlin, London, Paris, Barcelona, Rome, and many other cities. I called this project ‘Mariusz Draws’. This way, I want to encourage all the people and tell them that all the limits are in our heads.

I am writing to my parents from the centre of Australia . At the moment , we are staying near Ayers Rock .On the first day , we took a plane tour over the rock , and I was surprised at how big it was : 3.6 kilometres long and 348 metres high! During different periods of the day , the colours of the rock turn dark blue , purple , yellow and red .

The foods that Australians like most are ham and beef with lots of salad . They also grow grapes and other fruits .They love all sports.( A)But the game that they like most is Australian football . Because most Australians live near the coast , they also love going to the beach for swimming and surfing or just lying in the sun .

  (B)尽管是12月，但这里是夏季。The sun is very bright , and near the coast the countryside is very green . There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills , but the middle of the country has no trees or grass , just rocks and sand ...And kangaroos!

  On the second day , we went horse riding . The horse that I rode was lazy , so I was left far behind the others . But I enjoyed the slow and relaxing ride .

  Later this evening , we are taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home . It has been a wonderful trip .
