Well if you follow me on Twitter or just read this site enough, then you know that I have a three week trip planned to the country of Poland. Some of the places I will be visiting include:
- Krakow: I am really looking forward to checking out this amazing city.
- Wieliczka Salt Mines: One of the world’s oldest operating salt mines.
- Speedway: I will be attending one of Poland’s most popular sports that dates back to the 1930s.
- Zakopane: While this is considered to be “the winter capital of Poland”, I have rented a house in this resort town and will be checking out the local vibe, food, and booze.
- Tatra Mountains: This amazing mountain range borders the countries of Poland and Slovakia.
- Auschwitz/Birkenau: I will be visiting Nazi Germany’s largest concentration camp, located 38 miles west of Krakow.
- and much more.
Bowls of borscht will be devoured, gwumpkis will be inhaled, and of course vodka will be drank. So check out this site for updates throughout my stay.
My wife has asked me to curb my internet usage while on this trip, so I will not be updating the site as often as I do when I am at home. I will post pictures and give some feedback from time to time of my journey throughout this Eastern European country.
So the next update should be from the small city of Raciborz, which will be home base during my trip. I got a great 1 bedroom for only 237 zloty. That is a clean, WiFi ready, washing machine available, and centrally located pad steps from the town square for only $75 U.S. dollars!
I am loving this country already.
