Map - We are here in The Spirit Journey

CLICK ON THE MAGNIFYING GLASS TO FIND WHERE WE ARE AT IN THE STORY THIS WEEK

The Spirit Journey and its characters are real, except for Kajtek and Koko, who are the creations of Janusz Christa, a Polish cartoonist I have admired since childhood.

I had the pleasure of meeting him in 1974 at his book launch. He playfully teased me about taking Kajtek and Koko on the road with me, jokingly referring to my love for Jack London’s Yukon. Fifty years later, that lighthearted comment has inspired the creation of The Spirit Journey, a cartoon that tells my story.

I want to dedicate these pages to the amazing people I have met on my journey and express my gratitude to them for their guidance. I am especially grateful to Mr. Christa, whose art and character inspired me to continue as an artist and sculptor, a lover of nature, and a devoted husband.
