- Join us on an epic road trip through Poland! We start off in the western part of the country and see the very strange and very cool Crooked Forest. Then we drive north to the Baltic Sea and spend a day checking out Kołobrzeg.
We continue our travel and adventure in Poland as we head over to the beautiful and charming city of Gdańsk (full vlog on Gdańsk can be found here: • Best of Gdańsk, Poland... )
After Gdańsk, we drive south to the hidden gem of Poznań. We eat so much Polish food (some good, some not so good), and get to see a ton of amazing sites, including the largest statue of Jesus in the whole world, you won't want to miss this video!
Poland was a new country for our vlog! We are on a mission to visit every country in Europe!

✼ ABOUT US ✼
We are Nate and Katrina, two Americans living in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and traveling as much as we can to see what there is to see! Call us expats, immigrants, whatever... just call us already.
We balance work life with travel... as best we can! We would love to visit every country in Europe while we live here, and definitely keep a list of our global “must visit” destinations.
We try to give you a true view of us and how we travel and explore the world. Lots of food, definitely some jokes, and probably some swearing…. Hope you enjoy taking these trips with us!
I find your video very interesting, however there are many more interesting places worth of visiting in 🇵🇱 Poland.
Well done. Keep it up!!!
The seagull on the scateboard 😂 (sculpture)
I've heard the donuts are Fabulous in Poland. I'm glad you found a good one!
Soooo good. And tooo many!
traditional with rose jam !
Awesome trip! Having visited Gdansk before I can attest to there being great pierogi there for sure!
It was gorgeous and we had a great time. Thanks!
I lo❤e Poland
Great trip guys straight trees😂. Interesting place 👍🏻😎
My Pearl Jam Concert in London got cancelled as well. Luckily i was able to see them in Manchester couple days before.
I'm glad you got to visit my home town Gdansk. I cannot wait to have some rolling food next time I visit Poland. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
Ok let's go!!!
U should've stopped in Bydgoszcz.
Beautiful town!
And also a real Polish pearl among cities - Sosnowiec.
Thank you for another great video.
Much appreciated!
You must visit Wrocław in Poland, Kraków, Wieliczka, and please go check food from the best restaurants, food is great!
Looks like a cool road trip, minus the cancellation of the Pearl Jam concert. I have Polish origins and I still plan to go visit the country some day.
I love that you guys take testing food abroad so seriously, I mean it is as important as any other stuff when you go visit a country, right? 😏
😊😊
I would LOVE to have popcorn ice cream. Sounds like heaven to me!
(Nate) - It was great! Although there were actual pieces of popcorn in it that were not so good, as they were soggy and tough.
I like Oceant blue
Nate, with your looks and incredible voice you should be acting in some Western movie rather than dragging your bones around Europe. Great video anyway. Hope you enjoyed your stay in Poland. Best luck to both of you!
You missed Toruń on your back way. Nicolaus Copernicus home town. And ginger bread town. Regards from Krakow
Gdansk, hometown of Johannes Hevelius
Nate learns about him in our next video… 🙃
I agree with Nate. 110% of wax museums are ass
A fellow man of taste.
Gdansk, a beautiful city, full of history. And of course the city of Lech Walesa, the Nobel Prize winner who fought for the freedom of the people in Poland. One of his beautiful quotes: "Only stupid people have an answer to every question.". And Nate, how is the cheese in Poland?
Have fun you both! 👍
Great quote. So true!
Limited cheese report… I think they only cheese we hD in Poland was in a cheese/potato pierogi while we n Gdańsk. Seemed good. Not on the level of The NL. 🙃
The croissant is not from France but Austria.
Astronomy? These are Roman gods and the planets were named in their honor
All accurate facts on our channel. 🥴
We appreciate you watching!
Do you work in radio? You have a radio voice.
So how large is the crooked tree forest? 😮
Not huge… it was 700 trees at one point… Seemed like way less now.
They need some more aliens to come down and bend some trees up. 🤪
@@nateandkatrinadotheworld it reminds me of Viking ship contours. I wonder if they did that to make boats stronger back in the day.... 😁
Half an hour of pure fun, wow. Thank you for filming this road trip. Reasonably unknown territory. And ofcourse it is beautiful. And cheap! I had no idea donuts and Jesus are a thing in Poland. So we get a whole video in Gdansk alone. It had better be good. I'm sure it will. Only 120 more subscribers before you get to 10k. Shame about Pearl Jam. I hope Nate will get to see his 40th concert. Will he make it through 40 Taylor Swift concerts? I dare him. Love!
Gdanks was pretty great! Hope it comes through in the vlog.
Donuts and Jesus. Sounds like an American country song. 🤣
Thanks Jan!
To nie są typowe polskie hod-dogi..One są z warzywami i sosem w podłużnej bułce. To co jecie to tylko coś na szybko i głównie robione na stacjach paliw.W normalnej budce z fastfoodami tego nie uświadczysz.

Its not Jesus. Its Aragorn
Zapraszam fajną parę do kopalni w Wieliczce i Krakowa :)
buy a girl a pączki or jagodzianka. she will love ya 4 ever. hehehe.... wifi antenas was 4 streaming HUB.
Poznań? There are many more beautiful cities in Poland than Poznań. There is nothing interesting in Poznań. Visit, for example, Warsaw or Krakow. They ar much nicer.
Visit some cities that arent Polish just since 1945 :D only Poznań is part of original Poland in ur tour.
Kołobrzeg : [kɔˈwɔbʐɛk] -> sort of 'Kowobzheg' , but the (original) German name is a lot easier : 'Kolberg' !
btw. : the white plastered churches are probably (german) protestant, without statues and imagery. (the word from the Holy Book is stressed, statues are ' idolatry') . The basilica is catholic ánd in Baroque style ... so .. baroque..
I had considered just going with Kolberg, but it felt like the easy way out… 🤣
@@nateandkatrinadotheworld It is good that your took consideration of possible polish sensitivities, indeed ! 👍😁
Poland is so underrated imho. Very few people in Belgium and The Netherlands know there is so much to explmore and discover in Poland. Fact: Poland is very Roman Catholic and the church has a big influence: That's probably why there ius this big Jezus statue. Because of the Roman Catholic faith the demographics in Poland are more youth prominent and there is still too little work to be done by the well educated youngsters. So they are looking elsewhere in Europe to make a living and that's why there are nowadays so many polish young people in Western Europe doing their best quitely. Polish economy is slowly improving and cities are ambitious to improve infrastructure. The only thing is that there is a VERY conservative older part of population that does not like Europe (as Europe is demanding some things to change and Polish people are very chauvinistic!! ) but the young more liberal youth likes things to change in the other direction.
Some people there forget that the beautiful highways are heavily subsidized by Europe... And the Agrocultural sector too. And some of the city renovations... too !
Poland has a lot of potential though and has especially in the south warm stabile weather to enjoy and is still very affordable !
Yep, great insight. It’s been incredibly interesting to learn a little bit here and there. We really enjoyed the trip and totally agree it gets overlooked by many.
Someday we will get back to explore other areas.
Thanks for watching!
Poland was very progressive in communism era, which inoculated Poles against the disease of progress. Unfortunately, today progress has found its way to the west. That's why Western media and universities are full of Marxists. The difference is that we in Poland used to know that these were lies, while people in the West believe in them.
The European Union does not give us ANYTHING for free, in exchange for money they gained access to our market - 38 million people. They conquered our market, many Western European companies do not pay taxes in Poland, many Polish companies were bought for little money, at a low price just to liquidate them so that they would not compete with Western products. For example, the Germans sell washing powder in Poland of much lower quality than in their own country, but the price is higher than in Germany, they deceive Poles. This is just one of many examples. Don't praise the EU so much because it's not as great as you think.
Don't say that Poland needs more progressive changes, you are not Polish, so take care of your own country. These changes you are talking about are leading Western Europe to collapse, and with each passing decade life in Western Europe is getting worse and worse.
Interesting take. I edited my comments as I probably am not educated enough to really have a strong opinion here. Thanks for weighing in. 🙏
@Rene_Moor3095 Nie męcz się. To są komuniści. Mają na myśli "postęp" w obszarze kultury, 56 płci, homo niewiadomo i te rzeczy. A poza tym cenzurują komentarze jak wszyscy marksiści.
California waves or California tents? 🤔😅
On tourist's locations it's hard to find good quality food... even in expensive places 😱 It's like winning in lottery, sorry!
Try to avoid eating on the most popular streets with high amount of tourists. Good quality food is rather in places wanting people to return there (which is not a case with tourists on main street).
Great advice. We did soooo much better in Gdańsk and Poznań!
