2024 Traveler's Journal: A glimpse of Poland and Slovakia I have been wanting to do this presentation for a few years now. Covid ate up two years of the series and I was fortunate to have a full slate of presenters. Exploring the enchanting landscapes of Poland and Slovakia is truly a dream come true. From the stunning architecture of Krakow to the picturesque views of the Tatra Mountains, every moment is a delightful adventure. The rich history and vibrant culture of these countries leave a lasting impression on every traveler lucky enough to visit. Join me as I share the wonders of Eastern Europe through my eyes and experiences.

As I delve deeper into the heart of Poland and Slovakia, I am captivated by the warm hospitality of the locals. The traditional cuisine, with pierogi in Poland and bryndzové halušky in Slovakia, tantalizes the taste buds and creates unforgettable memories. Wandering through the charming streets of Warsaw and Bratislava, I am immersed in a blend of old-world charm and modern sophistication. Each corner turned reveals a new story, a new chapter in the fascinating tale of these captivating countries. The people, the places, and the experiences all come together to paint a vivid picture of Eastern Europe's hidden gems.

As my journey comes to an end, I reflect on the timeless beauty of Poland's Wieliczka Salt Mine and Slovakia's Spis Castle. These iconic landmarks stand as testaments to the rich heritage and architectural marvels of the region. The intricate salt carvings in Wieliczka and the majestic towers of Spis Castle are reminders of the resilience and creativity of the past. With each visit, I am reminded of the enduring legacy that shapes the present and inspires future generations to embrace the wonders of travel and exploration.
