With over a 1,000 years of history to its name, Gdansk was always going to be a special stop. Deemed as one of the fairest cities in Europe, there’s much excitement afoot as we trot […]

It didn’t look that far on the map (it never does) but it’s an awfully long way to Gdansk. Set on Poland’s northern shore, it takes us virtually the whole day to drive there. It’s […]
Having legged it all over Warsaw’s key sights yesterday, it’s with some relief we plan a slower pace today. First stop is the Warsaw Uprising monument, spotted on our way home last night. It, like […]
It was always going to be a busy day, our first outing into Warsaw. Consequently we’re up and at it, bright and early. Relatively speaking. Warsaw is divided into three distinct areas, the Old and […]
