    We were in Poland 3 weeks ago. I love everytime we go thrre. My husband grew up in Rszesow. We spent a week with his aunt and cousins who lives in Worclaw. We also went to the Tantra Mountains. We did the 12.5 mile hike to Morskie Oko. We typically go every other year, but I'm thinking we should go every year so I can see more of Europe. After we finish Europe, it will be time to try for our cross country tour of the US.

      Psalm 122:6 S yes bus from the airport to center i think 30 minutes tram and bus run all the time the longest time i spent at a bus stop was 8 minutes. But it runs all over the city. A polish cab driver told me that Poland use public transport all the time so it has to be good. Regular tram and bus stop around 11pm then night bus every hour if i can remember ?

    @Horusaem 5 лет назад

    Well it depends what you like to see , we are lucky to almost have it all ( including the Palm tree in Warsaw ;P and we had a very flameable rainbow :D ) . If you are into urban tourism and that kind of jazz the old cities mentioned in the video are spot on , If you like midle ages visit Malbork /Toruń/ Gdańsk /Karków those were the ones thriving in that period . If you are nature lover a Białowieża is a Must see , If you are into Industrial architecture the whole silesian region has it ( plus tons of castles ) and I belive that`s the reason why we are getting more and more tourism recently as it`s kind of a chain reaction when some1 fairly excited about a recent visit tells his friends about us ;) Having said that I am really supprised some of the gems are yet to be discovered by You but I blame the infrastructure and remoteness of those places . eg google search Jezioro Białe ;) or Piotrków Trybunalski Turkusowe Jezioro ;) I like lakes sue me :D

    @robson2939 4 года назад

    Wrocław is pronounced as Vrotzlav, not Vroklaw :) One of the most beautiful cities and personaly my favourite.If someone is looking for great architecture, it is way more interesting than Warsaw! There is also Poznań which is north of Wrocław and is closer on the way from Gdańsk. I love your videos BTW!

    • @crBudgetWatches
      @crBudgetWatches 3 года назад

      I was in Wroclaw for a business trip some years ago and I liked it more than Krakow. Very walkable, nice Town Square and university, less touristy . Stayed at the Monopol hotel and took an overnight Polskibus to Prague but felt coming back home when arriving back at Wroclaw.

  • @psmith85channel5
    @psmith85channel5 6 лет назад

    Guessing you've been there but if not you should consider visiting/covering some areas of Southeastern Europe, particularly Slovenia (Bled, Kobarid area, Ljubljana, Skocjan), Croatia (coast + Plitvice, maybe Zagreb), Sarajevo and Mostar, Montenegro (e.g. Kotor, Durmitor NP), Albanian Alps. It has some of the best nature in Europe, good food, cheap, and lot of interesting cultural blends with the Italian Austrian and Turkish influences, though their hard-to-pin-down historical/cultural nature does make for more difficult subject matter for 10 things shock/love videos. Think Romania also deserves separate treatment (esp Maramures, Transylvania historic towns, Carpathians).

    @PolishKnightUSA Год назад

    You forgot these rules:
    1) Don't visit a friend's home and NOT bring flowers for the woman of the household.
    2) Don't worry about tipping. It's ok to tip a bit at times, but for the most part, Poles want to keep the idea of raising prices via "tipping culture" to am minimum.
    3) Talk in our indoor voice with an indoor voice. American and Germans can talk loudly at times (as I've been educated!)
    4) Kiss on BOTH cheeks when meeting friends. Including the men.
    5) TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF when visiting a Pole's home (sort of like Japan). Better yet, bring slippers with you EVERYWHERE.

      Monachium - Mnichów
