Join us on an epic road trip through Poland! We start off in the western part of the country and see the very strange and very cool Crooked Forest. Then we drive north to the Baltic Sea and spend a day checking out Kołobrzeg.
We continue our travel and adventure in Poland as we head over to the beautiful and charming city of Gdańsk (full vlog on Gdańsk can be found here: • Best of Gdańsk, Poland... )
After Gdańsk, we drive south to the hidden gem of Poznań. We eat so much Polish food (some good, some not so good), and get to see a ton of amazing sites, including the largest statue of Jesus in the whole world, you won't want to miss this video!
Poland was a new country for our vlog! We are on a mission to visit every country in Europe!

We are Nate and Katrina, two Americans living in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and traveling as much as we can to see what there is to see! Call us expats, immigrants, whatever... just call us already.
We balance work life with travel... as best we can! We would love to visit every country in Europe while we live here, and definitely keep a list of our global “must visit” destinations.
We try to give you a true view of us and how we travel and explore the world. Lots of food, definitely some jokes, and probably some swearing…. Hope you enjoy taking these trips with us!

No offense, but you're proposing the same shit that everyone else does. There are so many other places in Poland that are worth seeing, but everyone always suggests the same cities. Wieliczka and the castle in Malbork are definitely worth seeing, but Wrocław, Kraków, Warsaw and the Tricity are overrated.

The food you had was pork cutlet and dumplings but not pierogi. Go to the restaurants called Pierogarnia. They specialise in Pierogi. Kołobrzeg is very touristy so you need to be careful about the restaurants. Some serve the commercial food that is not good. Polish wax museums are like an amusement park. You go there to get a good laugh because none of those figures is similar to original😂

in seaside resorts, unfortunately, it is easy to find food of average quality, most places are focused on quick profit and they can buy, for example, dumplings in a supermarket and sell them as home-made... We are sorry for that... There are literally a dozen places in Kołobrzeg with really good food, unfortunately...

Half an hour of pure fun, wow. Thank you for filming this road trip. Reasonably unknown territory. And ofcourse it is beautiful. And cheap! I had no idea donuts and Jesus are a thing in Poland. So we get a whole video in Gdansk alone. It had better be good. I'm sure it will. Only 120 more subscribers before you get to 10k. Shame about Pearl Jam. I hope Nate will get to see his 40th concert. Will he make it through 40 Taylor Swift concerts? I dare him. Love!

Kołobrzeg : [kɔˈwɔbʐɛk] -> sort of 'Kowobzheg' , but the (original) German name is a lot easier : 'Kolberg' ! btw. : the white plastered churches are probably (german) protestant, without statues and imagery. (the word from the Holy Book is stressed, statues are ' idolatry') . The basilica is catholic ánd in Baroque style ... so .. baroque..

Poland is so underrated imho. Very few people in Belgium and The Netherlands know there is so much to explmore and discover in Poland. Fact: Poland is very Roman Catholic and the church has a big influence: That's probably why there ius this big Jezus statue. Because of the Roman Catholic faith the demographics in Poland are more youth prominent and there is still too little work to be done by the well educated youngsters. So they are looking elsewhere in Europe to make a living and that's why there are nowadays so many polish young people in Western Europe doing their best quitely. Polish economy is slowly improving and cities are ambitious to improve infrastructure. The only thing is that there is a VERY conservative older part of population that does not like Europe (as Europe is demanding some things to change and Polish people are very chauvinistic!! ) but the young more liberal youth likes things to change in the other direction. Some people there forget that the beautiful highways are heavily subsidized by Europe... And the Agrocultural sector too. And some of the city renovations... too ! Poland has a lot of potential though and has especially in the south warm stabile weather to enjoy and is still very affordable !

Poland was very progressive in communism era, which inoculated Poles against the disease of progress. Unfortunately, today progress has found its way to the west. That's why Western media and universities are full of Marxists. The difference is that we in Poland used to know that these were lies, while people in the West believe in them.

The European Union does not give us ANYTHING for free, in exchange for money they gained access to our market - 38 million people. They conquered our market, many Western European companies do not pay taxes in Poland, many Polish companies were bought for little money, at a low price just to liquidate them so that they would not compete with Western products. For example, the Germans sell washing powder in Poland of much lower quality than in their own country, but the price is higher than in Germany, they deceive Poles. This is just one of many examples. Don't praise the EU so much because it's not as great as you think. Don't say that Poland needs more progressive changes, you are not Polish, so take care of your own country. These changes you are talking about are leading Western Europe to collapse, and with each passing decade life in Western Europe is getting worse and worse.

On tourist's locations it's hard to find good quality food... even in expensive places 😱 It's like winning in lottery, sorry! Try to avoid eating on the most popular streets with high amount of tourists. Good quality food is rather in places wanting people to return there (which is not a case with tourists on main street).
