  3. Nice story Grzesiek, that time you spend on bb when we worked together also made you a better pentester – what on the end of a day let us as a team deliver better services. That was ok from my poin of view 😉 Keeping fingers crrossed for your journy! Best!

  4. Man you're such an inspiration! I'm studying CS at my local university and I found your words incredibly helpful. Great stuff!!
    As an Argentinian I can only say I hope you had a great time here. I hope one day I can do some buh bounty from Poland 😄

  5. Cheers for achieving your dream. I started a course 5 months ago about Cybersecurity and in 5 months I'll start an internship. I don't know what I'll have, as we as students can't chose, but I'm trying to get a DevOps or, if I am lucky, a Pentester internship, as I am to work my own hours and staying home with my girlfriend rather than doing a 9-5 (well, 8-6 here) job.
