Hopen geraamtes

Nadat ik jullie het laatst geschreven heb, heb ik in het Karkonosze gebergte nog 2 mooie wandelingen gemaakt, ik heb onder andere 2 grote watervallen gezien (voor de ene moest je 4 zloty betalen en een idiote helm opzetten, terwijl...

Amsterdam

Farewell to Berlin

I happened to be in Berlin on the day of German Unification. Naivly I expected this to be the reason for wild parties, German Unification in my mind is still synonymous with extatic people breaking down the wall, Wir sind...

An ode to Görlitzer Park

Ocasionally, something bad can lead to something good. Görlitzer Park in Kreuzberg, Berlin is a good example of this. The centre of this wonderful park is a large bomb-crater. An act of destruction has unconsciously created a happy place (not...

Poznan is the first city I'd ever been to in Poland 4 years ago, on my first real solo multiple-country backpacking trip. Other than having to pay a fine on the tram it hadn't left many lasting memories, but it...

Famous Poles

On a sunny sunday morning I took a bus from Warsaw to Zelazowa Wola, the birthplace of Chopin, as recommended by Joanna, my Polish teacher. The house he was born in has been turned into a (not particularly interesting) museum,...
