A little bit of Amsterdam in Gdańsk - part two

Part two - This week it was time to scratch an other country off of my map, a country that I never thought I would visit, we went to Poland!

A classmate of Emma and me gave us the tip to look at the website Wizzair, so we did, and we could not believe our eyes.... Tickets from 30 euros?! So we quickly booked a flight to Poland, Gdańsk to see some more of Europe. 

Our second day we spend with making some more pictures and climbing up the Maria Church. 400+ stairs later we got rewarded with the most amazing view over the city. 
And we had some more luck this day, the Christmas market just opened, so we walked around for a bit and tried some Polish treats. We got dipped into the Christmas vibes, with all of the lights and Christmas songs. 



To make this city trip complete, we had to do some shopping of course! We tried to find this shopping center and took the train to get there. We're definitely getting better at it and find the place after a little search. We spend some hours here and along with our money. 
In Poland they pay with the Polish złoty. It seems a lot cheaper when you think about the price in euros, so you spend your money a lot easier, oops. 

Before we went for dinner we bought some souvenirs, in case we forget about our time here ;)

Time flew by and our last night here went by so fast. The next morning we had to get up early and after a quick breakfast we headed to the train station that would take us to the airport. And of course, it had to happen, something went wrong... we ended up in a train that took for ever to depart, we decided to get on an other bus. And as I mentioned before, doesn't matter how you get there right? After some stressful moments we arrived in time at the airport and we could breath again. We even had some time for some tax free shopping, had a chat with an other Dutch guy that was on the same flight, and before we knew we already landed at Turku airport. 

Poland surprised me in so many ways and I definitely want to see some more of this country!

And with this city trip, the countdown can begin... Our last few weeks in Finland started, in 25 days we will head home again... 

Nähdään!
