Mateusz told:

Space rocket. My greatest passion is space. It was always a dream to fly into space. But it's good to have such a dream that doesn't come true, which you can persist with, can imagine how it will be. So this is a glimpse into a future that won't happen, although who knows (...). The second thing I'd like to take with me into the future is running shoes. I can't imagine life without constantly covering those kilometers (...). The third thing is a cat, because I absolutely love cats. Simply there's no future without cats. I simply completely can't imagine life without some living animal at home (...). Another thing in this drawing that I remember was a little heart and it symbolized my wife, because I hope we'll always be together until the very end. I don't know who will live longer, who shorter, but as long as possible, let's be together. There are also mountains, which I already mentioned why they're important to me. (...) Well, forest. Forest is connected with running. I'd like to be close to forest, always with a cat, always with my wife, as long as we live, as long as we're healthy."
