Hello everyone! By Nazi occupation of Poland I meant Nazi German occupation of Poland or just German occupation of Poland. I don’t have any political agenda and the aim of the video is to show how much I admire this city and how beautiful it is nowadays, even after everything that happened. Greetings and thanks for watching 🙌🏽
Relax, Jose, it is obvious you cannot feel the difference. But Poles can, so we clarify wherever we can how it actually was. You did a great job for Poland, do appreciate and thank you. Looking forward for more and not only about Poland. Tell us sth about your home country. Edit: have you been in Kraków? Strongly recomended. If you want to touch Polish thousand-years history, you need to come to Kraków.
Yeah, Jan is right. Don’t worry if you got flooded with comments on that topic, they are not an attack but a reminder. In Western media we started seeing ‘Polish concentration camps’ when it was obvious that it was Germans who built and run them. It made Polish people even more sensitive to that topic.
No worries! We are kind of sensitive because you, Westerners, keep hearing "Nazi" in you media and history classes (an aftermath of a clever German campaign started in 1970s), and nobody asks a question what language they spoke. 99% of the Nazis were Germans and Austrians, 1% their allied countries. To refer it to contemporary times, imagine that in 20 years Russia, in an attempt to whitewash their history, will say that those who invaded Ukraine back in 2022 were "Putinists" nor Russians.... Take care!
Telling the truth has nothing to do with politics. It was Germany that occupied Poland, Germany that started the war, not some mythical "Nazis". Unless they had passports that said "nationality: Nazi"
Great video, I was born in this city and lived there for 19 years, moved out recently and i kinda miss Warsaw. It was really nice to see the city in your video and you did a great job presenting it. ps. Yeah in the city centre they check the tickets pretty often especially in the ,,metro centrum" station.
Oh, were have you moved to? Thank you for your comment, I am glad you enjoyed it and I will definitely be back, we were there just for a day and it wasn't enough. I have been checked only twice and it was in the bus in Lublin. I imagine the fines are not cheap haha
@@joseexplores i moved to Denmark for university. I love it here and i would like to stay here after i finish but ill always have a place in my heart Warsaw since its where i grew up
Quick note: It usually makes no sense to buy single ride ticket. When visiting Warsaw checkout your options. Like all-you-can-ride 24h, weekend or 'group' tickets.
Hey there! I am really impressed about the amount of information you have managed to bring up during this video and how you showed my city! I hope you enjoyed your time and will be back soon! As a pointer, I'd suggest maybe putting some more b-roll when you are explaining things for a long time to make the video more visually appealing! Great work nevertheless!
Hello! It was a super quick visit so I hope I'll return soon to get to know more places. I am glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for the commendation, I will try to record more B-roll. I usually forget it because I get too focused on saying the right thing in front of the camera haha but I'll definitely include more :D
Jose, new subscriber here. You should do a video on what took you to Poland. With Poland getting more visibility now because of the international climate, I think it would benefit your channel and your subscribers are curious.
Hello Sandy, thank you for subscribing and also thank you for your recommendation. I have actually made one before, it was the first video on my channel but I think I might have to remake it as I think I was a bit more shy in front of the camera. Greetings! :)
@@joseexplores Ah, had to go back and found it. Yes, your fist vlog, "Autumn in Poland" has a bit of information on why you are in Poland. Would definitely still recommend another video titled something like Why I am Still in Polanod or something like that. Basically the title of the first vlog does not tell people why you are in Poland so many, like me, might miss it because the title doesn't directly reflect the curiousity someone might have. Just an idea. I have enjoyed your vlogs, so thank you for sharing.
You are totally right and I think it is a great idea. I'll make sure to make a video on why I am in Poland and name it that way, and hopefully it'll get many views. I'm extremely happy you've enjoyed them, it motivates me to continue making more :)
@@joseexplores An interesting detail from the second half of 18th c. Each year the lowest temperatures in Warsaw were below -10C. Usually -20C and sometimes even less than -30. So now is really hot in winter :)
"cały naród buduje swoją stolicę" - A whole nation is building its capital. this is a propaganda slogan from the late 40s and early 50s when in fact the whole nation contributed to the reconstruction of Warsaw in some way. this corner building is designed in the socialist realist style, but at the same time it is integrated into the architecture of Nowy Swiat street.
I got the translation wrong, my polish is still poor. Thanks for the correction. It makes it even more incredible and impresses me even more to know that the people from the whole country contributed to the reconstruction of the capital. Thanks for commenting 🙌🏽
Jose how often are you travelling back to Guatemala? It would be great to learn more about your home country. Or even some comparison videos regarding cousins, way of life, work, study would be great to see on your channel! And you are such a positive person, I’m so happy you chose Poland 😊
I've been here for 3 years and I've only traveled back once. I think I made a couple of videos there but I have to check the footage if it is worth it haha Thanks a lot for the ideas, I'll take them into consideration :D Thanks for commenting and for watching :)
Hello Skya, pizza is fantastic 🥰 What’s your favourite? I personally love margherita. Thanks for watching and I am not just visiting, I live in Poland 😁
I visited Warsaw in 2019 and yes, it's impressive what they built after WWII, especially when I compare it to Vienna which (by my opinion) looks much worse than today Warsaw even with their much better GDP per capita. What I really liked in night Warsaw were real neons which looks magicaly and you don't see it that often in today cities. For example here in Czechia, cities are plagued by those asian led boards and other advertisements. I don't want to sound racist or something, I like our Vietnamese minority, we need their little food shops, but their sense of design and taste just doesn't belong to historical european cities, their places look like you take airplane with led screens and advertisement and explode it above city. 🙂 In Warsaw, this problem is not that visible (which doesn't mean they don't have such places in Poland, they have), they have mostly real neons and simple advertisements. You can see that led screen mess even in Japan, I don't understand it, on other hand, they were able to create the most elegant shapes like katana sword, but on other hand, their cities look like this now and they take this "mess" to Europe. BTW, this advertisement mess is typical even for Ukrainian and Russian cities for some reason and it's even more interesting that in Warsaw, they mostly don't have this mess.
Hello! Yes, the city looks beautiful and it makes it more special knowing it was rebuilt after the WWII. Unfortunately I have never been to Vienna nor Czechia but I’m really looking forward to it. I’ve heard that Prague is an excellent city.
I was in Vienna 4 years ago and I was delighted. This city is beautiful, I would need at least a month to visit it all 😂 Unfortunately, I was only three days... Warsaw is definitely a different city than Vienna, Warsaw resembles more American cities than European ones. A lot of skyscrapers, another one is being built, and another dozen are planned. There is an old town in Warsaw, but it's not that big. I would compare Vienna more to Krakow, typically European buildings 😊 Even though I love our European architecture and have visited some cities, such as Vienna, Krakow, Gdańsk, Brno, London, Warsaw will always be closest to me and this is my place on earth ❤ What's interesting , such a curiosity, Warsaw in terms of GDP per capita PPP, is richer than Vienna. The value for Warsaw is $53,700 and for Vienna $46,500. Despite 2 times lower earnings, the prices of real estate, services, etc. are doing their job. Greetings from Warsaw! 😊
Thanks, just as a small info: in the tumbnail you are promoting the stalin palace in warsaw. That's how the soviet occupiers branded the polish capital and the assertion was lacking to tear it down. If possible it would be nice to choose a different symbol, eg zamek królewski. Have a nice day.
You should get to know a Polish writer Andrzej Bobkowski. He moved to Guatemala somewhere around 1946/47 from France (he did not want to go back to Poland after the war, because he was strongly anticommunist), got citizenship and died there as a pretty young fellow because of cancer. Not only he was a really great and independent writer but also a pionier of modeling environment in Gautemala - as a citizen he even represented the country in international competitions.
Hello. Thank you very much for the information. I read your comment and googled him. Being Guatemalan and I had never heard anything from him. I also read that he had a shop called Almacenes Supermodelos but sadly it doesn't exist anymore. Thanks for watching :)
I must say that one thing what is stupid in Poland keeping the Christmas decoration until March almost Easter ! Absolutely crazy !Louis you are amazing ❤
I found this definition of Nazi: a member of a German political party that controlled Germany from 1933 to 1945 under Adolf Hitler. So, yes, Nazis were from Germany…I don’t see what’s the big deal…

I co w zamian? Odbudowa tych budynków? Takich samych jak na Lwowskiej i Poznańskiej, czy Wola bis? To jest świadek historii, wpisany w urbanistykę tego miasta. Wyburzanie nie ma najmniejszego sensu - poświęcono na niego wyłącznie polskie materiały i pracę dziesiątek rzemielśników.

@@henningbartels6245 you seem to deny that the nazis were Germans in general. 80 years have gone but we, Poles, still remember German occupation, German terror and mindless cruelty. I hope you understand.
@@henningbartels6245 Dear Henning, I was born in the seventies, obviously I cannot remember the forties in person. But the Polish nation remembers. This rememberance is in our national DNA. Just ask anybody here. Just read the comments below Jose's film. Can you see how many people reacted? I would try to explain my approach in another way. You are German, I guess. What is in your national rememberance about Allies' bombing? Hamburg, Dresden, Koeln, Essen, Aachen, Schweinfurt, Ruhrgebiet... and in the east, tragedy in Ostpreussen and Russian's crimes: 300 000 civilians have been killed, 2 milion women were raped till the end of the war. Who was suffering there? Nazis or Germans? Think it over, please. I do respect German point of view, please, do respect our, Polish one. Anyway, greetings from Poland! Jan.

Hamburg, Dresden, Koeln, Essen, Aachen, Schweinfurt, Ruhrgebiet... and in the east, tragedy in Ostpreussen and Russian's crimes: 300 000 civilians have been killed, 2 milion women were raped till the end of the war. Who was suffering there? Nazis or Germans? Think it over, please. I do respect German point of view, please, do respect our, Polish one. Anyway, greetings from Poland! Jan.
Calling occupation of Poland Nazi occupation is like calling war in Ukraine special operation.
@@RobIn-ky4uz interwencja rosyjska na Ukrainie jest w pełni uzasadniona ponieważ Ukraińcy od 2014 roku mordują rosyjską ludność Donbasu.
@@janniezbedny7340 Niemcy nie mają pretensji do Rosjan za ich bezwzględność, ponieważ tak samo postępowali w 1941 roku gdy napadli na ZSRR.
Germans - not Nazis
