The BEST Christmas Market in POLAND? How WE Spent $20 US Dollars

  • Today we are in Krakow experiencing the best Christmas market in Poland! We spent $20 US dollars on some amazing food and drinks. While trying to order a standard sausage we accidentally order a famous polish Christmas treat, Smalec. Smalec is a dish made of rendered pork fat spread across topped with onions and pickles and we added kielbasa!
    We warm up with a delicious garlic soup and even get a couple free beers. The thing we will miss the most about Poland is definitely the Oscypek, a delicious smoky grilled cheese wrapped in bacon and topped with cranberry sauce.
    Thank you for watching and thank you Poland for having us!

    Hi, we're Brandon and Alyssa. We saved $30,000 to travel for a year! For the first part of our adventure we lived in our 2014 Prius for 100 days traveling from San Diego to Canada and across the trans Canadian Highway. We've made it to Europe with no return flight, no itinerary and an endless desire to eat and drink EVERYTHING! Don't forget to subscribe to see where we go next!

      Wow we can’t believe it’s come to that. We’ve only been to Frankfurt but we stumbled on a really cool local Christmas market and shared some nice Germans taught us to drink meter beers. We still can’t wait to see some markets in other cities but that’s sad they have to be so heavily regulated.

And it didn't look much different that romanian weddings. Fatty foods with meat and heavy drinking. High octane vodka....

      Every city Christmas market has its own vibe, as for me? City of Lublin is probably on the top, as it has practically no tourists, cuz everyone is afraid to go so close to the Ukrainian border 😂 and everything it's way cheaper than in Cracow., including schools for the foreigners. It's basically one huge Uni campus with students from all around the globe everywhere.
