    Krakow or Warsaw?

    To be able to compare the two different cities I have written down some differences and similarities between two of the most visited cities in Poland, and maybe this post can help you decide whether or not you should book your next trip to Krakow or Warsaw. Warsaw:We visited during late winter 2022, in February, so to be honest the weather was quite the same as at the time we visited Krakow. Cold, but not the same kind of cold cuz we had some storm winds and some rain as well. Not that much that it was a hassle though. We stayed for 3 nights, and to be honest I…

    Krakow by night

    As I told you all before when I showed you the images of Krakow during daylight, the city is even more stunning after dark. If you look closely at the image that’s showing the outdoor serving tents on the main square you can see that they’re starting to set up their Christmas decorations. I can only imagine the sights during Christmas, that must be a wow-feeling for sure. So this is how Krakow looks after sundown, but to be fair, in November the sun sets pretty early. And if you’re looking for a guide to the nightlife in Krakow, well, you’ll just have to keep looking cuz I couldn’t tell…

    Wodka tasting

    You all know that we love going to different kind of tastings, regardless if it includes food, snacks or different kind of beverages. So when we saw that they had a place called Wodka Bar in Krakow, where they held vodka tasings, we just had to go and try it out. It’s a supercute small place, where you order your trey of vodkas at the bar. They have all kinds, straight up simple once, flavored, you name it – they’ve got it. We went on the simple one, with just plain vodkas cuz that’s what we wanted to try. And it was fun to have experienced this, but if I…

    Warm apple cider

    So it all started out with me ordering a cider, as per usual, but when the bartender at this supercute little place called Singer asked me if I wanted my cider served warm or cold – well, imagine my suprise! Warm cider, is that a thing? I’ve had mulled wine for sure, but I don’t think I have ever walked into a bar and ordered a warm apple cider. During our trip to Krakow we had it quite often though, it was the perfect drink to give you that extra bit of warmth during the colder days. It was served with apples, lime and cinamon, quite the combination if you…

    Walk with me through the streets of Krakow

    As you can see in all of the images the weather was quite grey at the time we visited, but to be honest that’s hardly exclusive to Krakow during late autumn. All of the northern parts Europe kind of has that kind of weather in between the seasons. But the architechture is really stunning, so even though I always prefer blue skies and sunshine, I hardly minded the greyish. As you can see the buildings are old but colorful, with lots and lots of shopping and restaurants. As we walked through the old cobblestreets, we saw quite a lot of restauration of the building and one thing that really struck…

    Review of 2021

    Has another year just gone by? People say that time flies when you’re having a good time, and the year 2021 has been a lot of fun, especially if you compare it to 2020 where the entire year was filled with fear. The pandemic is very much alive, but we are all starting to manage it better and most of us are fully vaccinated and that’s really great! January, Idre Sweden February, Gålö Sweden We had some great winter wonderland experiences here in Sweden during the first quarter of the year, we visited places like Idre up in the north of Sweden, went camping in Gålö, and just enjoyed the…
