Given the fact that I have been to Poland 11 times (2010, 3 times in 2011, 2012, 5 times in 2013 and now in 2014). I guess you can say that I do love this country. And since 7 out of those it's been Kraków, you can fairly say that I love Kraków. I have also been 7 times to Warszawa but I like Kraków more. Sorry.
This is the list of the reasons why I love Kraków. It took me a few days to come up with as I had a few days to think about it. I mean, I wrote on a sticky note a reason every time I thought about one. Also, there is no order in this list.
Without further adieu, I present you MY list:
- It's very cheap. Granada is cheap, but Poland is cheaper. The only thing I dislike (but I can tolerate) is that beer doesn't come with food. Thank you Graná, you "ruined my life".
- Polish girls.
- Pierogi.
- Wódka Żołądkowa Gorzka.
- Zapiekanka.
- 24 hour alcohol shops. No more "the chino is about to close!".
- Beer, cheap and good.
- Girls are good looking.
- Public transport is cheap.
- Hitchhiking friendly.
- More pierogi.
- People are very hospitable.
- Girls are hot.
- There are not many motorways making hitchhiking very easy.
- Polish truck drivers are the best. Don't even bother to make stupid jokes about this, it's because they are very hospitable and can even find you another ride to keep on going.
SO JUST DON'T! - It's cheap.
- Even though I'm not really into hiking that much, I have to admit that they have great hiking trails. I had been "forced" to do a couple in the past
- 75% of the girls you see while walking, on the tram, on the bus, are good looking.
- Pierogi Ruskie.
- Żubrówka.
- Zapiekanka with bacon.
- The Tatras. Yet, I have to Poland 13 times and never been there. Only once I went through them, when I went through Zakopane.
- Cheap mobile carriers.
- Pierogi with spinach.
- More wódka.
- Did I say it's cheap?
- Did I mentioned the girls?
- Did I say that hitchhiking is very easy?
- Have you tried their food? They even have a Pierogi Festival in Kraków! Why I did not know about this?
- 24hr alcohol shops.
- Pierogi with meat.
