Stories, Recommendations and Practical Info so you can plan your trip to Poland
Poland
My Poland highlights include Warsaw, Białowieża and Krakow. Białowieża is a very small rustic village on the edge of the forest, a tranquil and beautiful place that will immediately captivate you. While it’s pretty much unheard of in the United States, it has inspired songs in Russia and wistful, romantic remarks from Polish people whenever they hear I’ve visited.
