Today I'll show you the sights and tell you a bit about the town of Żywiec, a place I know well :) I hope you enjoy the video, thanks a lot for watching!

What a gorgeous little place. Thanks for showing us around Alijca. Really enjoyed that and would certainly like to see you do more videos like this in the future 👍
Thanks a lot Davey, I’m glad You enjoyed the video! I’ll try to record some more when I’m back in Europe😉
@@alicja4139 looking forward to some more vids from you and thanks for keeping Steve in check - he knows who's boss! 😊
Alijca really enjoyed all your filming wanted to ask if you made the sweaters you wore on the first podcast you made when you went home thanks so much
Sweaters were really beautiful
The device at the railway is a Ballast Cleaner. Over time, the gravel / rock (Ballast) around the tracks gets broken down into fine dirt, and it doesnt hold together as well as it should. A Ballast Cleaner digs up all that rock, sifts out the fine material and cleans up the bigger stuff, before dumping it back again. Same sort of machines are used all around the world.
I just want to use this opportunity so say thank you and appreciate to all the Poles who helped my country Ukraine 🇺🇦 we really appreciate it. New sub 😇
Thank you, it is good from yourside to thank for it, because my country did really a lot for Ukraine. But unfortunately I cannot say it about your state in generall and the government, public institutions etc. The way the ukrainian state treat the topic of genocide on Poles in years 1939-47 is just shameful.
Nevertheless I wish all good people in Ukraine as soon as possible the possibility to live in peace and prosperity in their own country.

And for Britain in WW2 as well! Shame they didn't get the proper recognition or decent treatment afterwards when the British government wouldn't let many of the soldiers and airman remain in England, and sent many of them back to a life of extreme poverty and certain death in some cases for assisting the allies! 🙏🏴🇨🇮👍
@@BoadiceanTruth They not only didn't get the proper recognition from the British. Great Britain betrayed Poland and sold it to Stalin for its own interests, half of its pre-war territory was stolen from Poland.
Moreover the British also stole Poland's gold reserves, which the Poles evacuated from Poland in September 1939 and transported to France and Great Britain because, as they stated, they armed Polish soldiers who fought under their command during the war and gave their blood and lives for British interests.
As a Pole, I will never forget this.
Thanks Alicja for another interesting and informative video from Poland! You're a natural in front of the camera, too.
That was a fascinating video. Poland in my aging American mind is a place out of World War II. It never occurred to me how little I know about it today. Thank you Alicia, please don't be shy about doing more. And Steve, you've got yourself a sweetheart there. Hang on to her.
Yeah Steve she's a KEEPER
Fantastic 1st vlog Well done, young lady.you are a natural
Finally!!! A women who puts pickles on her pizza!!😀your mum sounds like a gem. Great part of the world so yes please to more like this👏.
Haha thanks Clive!😁
I recently discovered Steve March, and his great adventures, sometime Steve only, and most of the time with you, Alicja included in Steve’s adventures! I truly enjoy watching you both, Steve, and especially you, Alicja! I did not know that you are Polish? I truly loved watching your visit back to Poland, and showing us around your beautiful home town! Yes, I would love to see more from you, and of Poland please? Thank you, for showing us, a peek into your old life in Poland, a very interesting, and beautiful country!! And by the way, I would also love to find out how you got to live in Scotland? ❤❤
You are doing really well alicja o. Touring your country Poland 🇵🇱
Thanks Alijca, that was really interesting. I enjoy seeing somewhere new through the eyes of someone who knows the place because they grew up there, so, yes please, give us more!
Thank You so much Richard, I’m glad You enjoyed my wee video!
Really enjoyed the tour. Would love to see more. Thanks Alicja 🙂
What a beautiful town! Thanks for the tour.
Yes, more please. Your humour and editing is great. Hope Steve is good.
I've put my feet up for the week mate :)
@@steve-marsh enjoy your wee break! Have an Irn Bru for me. I can't find any here in Ohio 😕
@@michaelcarrigan3747 I bought an Irn Bru for a Ukrainian friend who was visiting Manchester, UK (I know it's not Scotland) last week, unfortunately, she did not like it! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry! 🤔😥
@@TriciaBute more for us then lol
@@TriciaBute To be fair I’m not a fan of Irn Bru either, a bit too sweet for Eastern Europeans!😂
Really enjoyed that. I love Poland and have travelled to all the main cities but it's always nice to see places off the beaten track. More of the same would be good.
Thanks for watching Andrew, I’ll try to record something when I’m back!
Beautifully presented, a treat of a video.
Thank You Colin!
Great vid. Your town is so much like Presov where my wife is from in Slovakia! They are all pretty similar and just have so much beauty. More vids like this please.
Hi Paul! Lots of hidden gems in Eastern Europe, also I should visit Slovakia- wasn’t there for years! Thanks for watching😉
What a lovely place Alicia. Amazingly clean and tidy? More Poland videos please, when you can? Perhaps Steve will come next time? Thanks for sharing 👌👌
I hope so Gordon! :)
Pozdro :) Mieszkam w Żywcu całe życie i fajnie widzieć że ktoś przybliża to miasto innym :) Cheers! :)
Really pretty town , thanks for showing us around ... great way to get to know Poland a little better
Good to see a part of Poland we never heard about . Lot of old history and nice scenery mixed with the old and the new.
Alicja the tour is lovely💜 thankyou. Nachos is adorable! I love how Europe preserves old historic buildings here in Australia many get bulldozed 😏
Steve's natural and interesting presentational style has certainly rubbed off on Alicja - she was brilliant.
......I had no idea of Poland. Your town looks beautiful. More videos please.😎
More videos from Alicja and Nacho (what a gorgeous dog) and peeing on the castle LOL LOL Enjoyed the video. Don't give steve back the channel LOL
Thank you so much for this beautiful vlog. You have brought back so many memories for me. My late father in law came from Tomashov south of Krakow. He settled in Clackmannanshire Scotland after the war. I remember he made soup and I love Kabanos.
We live in Australia and Kabanos is very popular here. Poland is on our bucket list.
We hope you make it Down Under one day.
This was awesome, you are awesome. Thanks for showing us your town and your lovely doggo. Will deffo stop by next time I’m passing through Poland 😊
Really enjoyed that, thankyou.
Great video while you where in Poland. Also it was nice to see you with a different companion. He seemed to mind well, was polite and considerate to you. A definite upgrade! Hope you brought him back to meet Steve.
Fantastic video more Please 😊❤️🏴
A lovely trip with a lovely lady. Steve will have to up his game a bit. More please.regards Tom
Yes, please share more!
Of course more! Yes please :)
Loved your video of your beautiful home in Poland .
I had no idea how stunning Poland was.
You were incredible about keeping it real, and not just touristy.
Loved you very cute family fur baby, if anyone will know the park they will ❤
Thank you great job.
Really really enjoyed that Alicja thanks very much.cheers 🍺🍺👍.ps love to see more.
yes we need more videos from Poland. Alicja me and the wife like your content
You are good at this....a most enjoyable presentation. I agree with everything others have said
Really enjoy your trips to Poland. Your two videos are among my favourites on Steve's channel. You've tried to follow Steve's format and you even found a wooden version of him! Always love the little town squares in many towns with the coloured buildings. I also like to go up any towers I can find for great views. Should have taken Steve to the torture room though as revenge for the fife walk! Nice food too and the beers look great. Please do some more videos as these are places I've never known about or would be likely to visit. Keep up the great work... Allan.
Yep! More!
We really do absolutely LOVE Poland. We’ve been to Krakow twice, Gdańsk twice and also Poznan twice. Our favourite of those three has to be Gdańsk, such a beautiful place although we do love them all. The people are fantastic, the food is fantastic and the beer is bloody gorgeous and cheap 👍This one is now on the list as we’ve been interested in trying some other places in Poland to visit. Thanks for this video 👏👏👏
Hi Mark, thanks for your comment! I’m glad You like Poland, all the cities You mentioned are really great. You could try Wrocław or Łódź, and Warszawa which 80% was destroyed during 2WW so it’s interesting to see the capitol all rebuild and thriving😊
@@alicja4139 Hi Alicia, thanks for the advice 👍 I think we’ve looked at Wrocław and Łódź in the past so time to start planning more trips to your beautiful country 🇵🇱
You might try the tourist-neglected east. Lublin is a nice city, and further up you have the amazing Białowieża National Park, the last remaining primieval forest in Europe, near where I live. In summer I see a lot of cars from The Netherlands, France and Germany, as well as internal tourists, but it is a region most people don't know about.
What a treasure! I wish I'd known about this when we were in Krakow. Looks like it is definitely worth a day-trip.
Awesome video, keep making them and I will keep watching them.
Great video Alicja. Thank you so much for the time and effort taken to show us this lovely town. It has made me wish I had the money to be able to visit Poland, but I live just about as far away as one can get from there, the south of the South Island of New Zealand! Keep up the good work, I look forward to your videos as much as I do Steves'. I am working my way back through all of them whilst I keep warm here, it's winter. Cheers, Diane.
Darlin girl, you are barely out of your childhood. You make great videos with Steve, and yourself. Blessing 🫶🌟
That was great, really enjoyed it! Loved the dog 😍 but not the soup 😉. Alicja went past a church & there was a statue of a man on all fours with a canopy over him, I was like ' WHAT is he doing?'. Competition Steve, Alicja is good at this!!
An interesting video. More please.
Your video is delightful. Your town of Zywiec is wonderful. What a great place to have in your life. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. You are a natural with the videos. Your combination of information and sights makes this so easy to watch and enjoy!!
Absolutely love to see more videos like this Alicija. Lovely to see places that aren't as well known, looks a place that is well worth a visit. Nachos was so cute as well, reminded me of our family dog with how he wants to rush ahead and the noises he was making. Look forward to more videos 👍🙂
Thank You so much for watching and your lovely comment!♥️
Great little tour Alijca . Steve ....you're sacked 😂
The door hit my back on the way out
@@steve-marsh 😂😂
Great job Alicja thank you for the trip around the town and yes I had never heard of the place but I have now, take care and stay safe.
Absolutely great Steve will beproud
Super !!!

What a fantastic insight into a lovely town that is so unknown to most foreign tourists. Thanks so much for this more please love to see places like this
Thank You so much for watching, I’m glad You enjoyed :)
honestly as a person that lives in żywiec its not that amazing lol
Thank You so much. I have never been to Poland even though I am Polish. I am 76 years old and I would love to see more videos of Poland through your eyes and narration. I will be looking for Zywiec beer for sure. Again thank you so much for a great video. Looking forward for more.
Thanks for broadening my horizons, good job👍🏻
This was a lovely insight to your beautiful country Alicja and very well documented , love your accent, you are a natural thank you so much and yes I would love to see more of the same... by the way your Grandmas house
must be wonderful !!! ...
🤗👏 x
Great video again Alicja, keep up the great work, looking forward to your next one
Isn't it amazing how the old saying that you are never too old to learn something new , never fails to deliver ! I'm 61 and to be made aware of such an enchanting little town in Poland of such beauty is fantastic ... Thanks for brightening up my day Alicja . All the best from Scotland .
Fairly new to Steve's channel and this came up. So nice to watch a Steve Marsh vlog without the big Scottish lump (joking!). This is ace Alijcja! Love your Pollttish accent too!
Wonderful video as usual. Thank you very much Alicja 😀
Keep her on Stevie...Alicja is so good...
Very nice and interesting town. You have a certain interesting quality to your videos and presentation. Over recent years my work colleagues in Skawina would often take me out to sample your lovely towns and villages but unfortuantely I never visited Zywiec. Thank you for sharing your local towns and villages with us all. Poland has a lot to offer.
Alicja that was awesome. Said it before here your a natural. Much more please. 10/10
Thaaaaat's how you pronounce it! Every day's a school day. Looks lovely!
Another great video. Would love to see more of Poland
Have visited many towns in Poland but was unaware of this little gem. Was particularly good to see some decent local food recommendations in your video. Steve needs to take you along more often.😊
Thank you Alicja for a delightful moment.
Great video Alicja really enjoyed it.What a lovely town Zywiec is yes would love more videos from Poland 👍♥️
Alicja, you are getting so good at these videos! Thank you for bringing us along on your holiday to Żywiec. "Don't pee on the palace!" Words to live by! :)
Thanks for a lovely tour Alicja. Really enjoyed it.
Yes please alicja more videos, love the dog
Wow! I really enjoy Steve's videos - I like his presentation style and the places and trips he takes me on. And I like them even more when you are with him. But I really did LOVE you tonight. I loved your presentation style - it's perfect. Your town is lovely too and you showed it off so well, including the sort of places I would choose to visit myself. You really convinced me I'd like to visit it. You're a natural. Please give us some more - soon.
Thank you for showing me around Zywiec Alicja. A lovely place, and so full of fascinating historical buildings. I would definitely like to watch more visits to places in Poland you would like to share with us.. [I like Steve too: please Include him or he'll feel left out!]
Remember my name :)
Super video Alicja! Bardzo interesujace informacje o miescie Zywiec. Mam nadzieje ze kiedys odwiedzimy to piekne miejsce z moim mezem Tomaszem. Ogladamy wszystkie wasze filmy. Gratulacje! Czekamy z na nastepne. Pozdrawiamy ze Scunthorpe. ♥
Lovely video, what a view from the tower. Thanks alicja
Brilliant video Alicja. I intend to explore more Poland in the future, so thanks for this, I will definitely add Zywiec to my list of places to visit in Poland x
Brilliant video once again, please let’s have some more. 👍👍👍
My great uncle was a POW in ww2 at stalag VIII-B in Lamsdorf (I think I'ts now called Łambinowice. He was part of the death march when the Soviets were advancing. He survived and I have his handwritten diaries of the terrible time they had. Luckily he states how far and which towns and villages he passed through each day. I hope to take my self converted Renault Trafic and retrace his journey at some point in the near future. I have no idea if Żywiec is on the route without digging the paperwork out, but I'll definitely visit if it's nearby. Your NC500 video inspired me to convert my van and I have been on many UK journeys to Scotland since. 👍
Thank you very much for sharing with us this wonderful town, Alijca. I really love this place and the video is well shot. I always wonder as a foreigner how to pronounce the names in Poland such as Żywiec. The park is also very beautiful.
Thanks so much for your comment Jacky. The names are quite difficult for foreigners to say, but to fair it’s same for me with most of places in Scotland!😉Fanks for watching!
Love watching travel vlogs from different places, especially places which are more off the beaten track. I have the honour of driving to Poland and Ukraine delivering aid, and just love your country. More videos please 😀
Great to learn more about your hometown Alijca! Thank you for making such a great video. You and Steve are awesome 👍
Brilliant video! Alicja is beautiful as always and i really think she is a fantastic youtuber just like Steve! Amazing video Alicja! You got it babe!
Such a lovely town and a great tour, thank you Alijca. Would love to see more tours like this.
Poland is a a beautiful country. Great travelog...
Really enjoyed the video - great job 👍 I reckon Nachos deserves his own UA-cam channel 😉
I live near Żywiec. I recommend visiting the villages 😊
This was wonderful, lovely scenery. Thanks very much Alicja!
Would never have thought i'd see my town on my feed 😁 we love it here and i'm happy you enjoyed your stay ❤
Thanks for this Alijca. Very informative and nice to see
Excellent tour, thanks for sharing 👍
Very nice, thank you.
What a lovely place! Great video Alicja, I've never been to Poland but I'm hoping to go soon, so would love to see more videos!
You did a great job Alicja! My family comes from Rzeschov and I enjoy seeing videos from Poland. It was very interesting with the history of the town and the beautiful sights!
Great video! Nicely presented and always interesting to have a lesser known location championed in such a presentation. Awesome! Nacho Cam was a treat!
That was a great video! What a beautiful place. Please do more videos, as much as we love Steve :)
For sure I'd like to see more videos like this 🙂. It adds to an already interesting mix of videos. Ps you were a real trooper on the Fife coastal trail... fair play to you👍
Thoroughly enjoyed that video Alijca and yes more in the future please👍
Thanks for sharing your town with us. Great work.
