Poland. Krakow and Concentration Camps.
Poland isn't what I expected. I expected cold, draughty, and poor.
It's warm, sunny and very metropolitan. The shopping here is amazing,
it's just a pity I hate to shop! The food is also amazing - I ordered a SMALL SIZE! I couldn't come to Poland without visiting Auschwitz-Birkenau. I was
holding my shit together well until I saw the room full of childrens
shoes, stolen from murdered Jewish children. Visiting this place makes the statistics seem very very real, and very
terrifying. Lest we forget.
