some days have passed...Gdansk and Kaunas



After Warsaw, and the never lasting train journey to the north region on the Baltic Sea, i finally arrived in Gdansk, very beautiful sea side city, full of green, nice old town, and connected quite well with Sopot and Gdynia.




I had a so good host, Dagmara, who let me sleep at her's, and she showed me some parts of the city (have to go to the park near the UNI!!)..and we talked a lot of quite everything!!


After a couple of nights i left for Lithuania, and my first stop was Kaunas, home of basketball!!!! ;) 



I stayed with Liz and Erika, really 2 wonderful girls! they treated me so good!!Liz woke up at 5 am to open me cause my bus arrived so early! The showed me around the city, with long walks (and that was not the problem, i can walk for hours..but not at that speed!!!!!i almost had to run!!!) 




Liz even took me to the 9th forth..built for WWI to defend Kaunas, but sadly became first a Nazi prison were more than 50.000 people where killed, and after a soviet prison, and now a museum to not forget!!



And what a night life there. I’ve passed all the weekend there. And trust me it's a great place if you like clubbing!!
Still have to thank Erika and Liz for every moment together, from hot tea on the couch, the Champions League final, clubs and all. Really thanks!!

My test trip before leaving for the world - Warsaw

I'm here in Warsaw, in Micha's house, on my second day of my baltic(+Poland) trip.
It's the first time i get hosted with couchsurfing..and the idea is great! I was lucky cause she is very kind even if she has her life and her things to do..!
First night out we went to a b-day party of a friend of her, they were all kind, spoke about everything, from music to normal life!(for Giova, a friend of Misha is going to see a Pulp concert in Slovakia..why not..??!!)
The city has been all re built after that in 1944 the nazi have completely destroyed it (about 93%).
This means that even the old town of the city has more or less 50 years!

Tomorrow i'm headed to Gdansk, port city in the north..
Carbonara time now..!!!
