POLAND

My hostel was great and much better than the ones in Africa. Europe's so much easier to travel in. I spent the first day sight seeing in Krakow and drinking all around town. The beer is execellent and the vodka eve better. I saw Schindlers factory, and the wawel castle. The Jewish Quater, and walked all over Krakow. I booked my train to Novi Sad, Serbia for Exit Festival and got a sleeper train for most of the 18 hr ride. Poland was so cheap and the weather was beautiful. Krakow is a great city, i highly recommend it. The next day i went to Aushwitz to see the concentration camps. I left Krakow and it was warm and sunny. An hr and a half away in Aushwitz it was cold and rainy. It really was the saddest place ever. Its not something everyone should see. Maybe ignorance is bliss sometimes. Its too real there. I cant even write about it, my fingers dont want to hit the buttons. That night i watched the Netherlands vs Uruguay game with some young norwegian girls at the brewery and then went back to the hostel to chill, mentally exhausted from Aushwitz. My train was the next night so i had a day to kill in Krakow before i had to leave. Ania texted me and we met for dinner at 7ish at a good terrace restaurant in the Jewish Quater. We hit it off again and talked so long i had to rush to catch my train. I passed out on my train to Budapest and woke up when we were rolling into Bratislava, about 2.5 hours from Budapest. At Budapest i changed trains to regular seats and had 5.5 hours left till Novi Sad, Serbia and Exit Fest.
