Witamy w Polsce

"Welcome to Poland"

I have to write a short post about my adventure to Poland, just because of how ridiculous it was. We left our hotel in Berlin at 8:30 AM on Sunday morning. One of the girls suitcases broke, first encounter of problems. 12 of us make the train no problem, 3 make it last minute. One of those three was our professor WITH THE TICKETS! In the words of one of the grad students, "I almost heart attacked on the floor" when the train started moving in Berlin and our professor was no where in sight.

Our train ride was 10 hours and 10 minutes. At times I feel like I could've walked faster alongside the train. In one city, we attached a restaurant car to our train. Let's just say it wasn't exactly "smooth" as it seemed like the trains just simply crashed into one another.

Best part of the trip? We had no A/C. It was honestly to be expected in my opinion, but I must note it. I just rode in a sauna for 10 hours.

After we got off the train though and saw a little bit of Krakow, I feel like I am going to love this city. It kind of reminds me of Pula, Croatia.

Still surviving on one backpack 6 weeks in. 7 more to go!
