"Zakopane, Wielczka, and Wroclaw," part two of my travel story on Poland, published in inTravel Magazine

The adventure across Poland continued with visits to Zakopane, Wieliczka, and Wroclaw. Zakopane, known as the winter capital of Poland, offered a unique blend of local culture, stunning landscapes, and delicious cuisine. The highlight was a hike in the Tatra Mountains, providing breathtaking views and encounters with local wildlife.

Next, the journey led to Wieliczka, home to the famous Wieliczka Salt Mine. This UNESCO World Heritage Site amazes with its underground city, all carved out of rock salt. The mine featured chapels, sculptures, and even a lake, all underground and made from salt.

The final stop was Wroclaw, a city known for its beautiful architecture and numerous bridges. The Market Square, with its colorful buildings, was a vibrant center of activity. The visit also included a fun city game of searching for the Wroclaw dwarfs—small figurines scattered throughout the city.

Throughout the journey, the bond between father and son strengthened, and the shared experiences created memories that would last a lifetime.

John Wasowicz Given my Polish ancestry (my grandparents came from Krakow), I was naturally drawn to Eric’s vignettes about communities in Poland. His marvelous prose captures the heart of the nation. It’s noteworthy that Eric incorporates his travels in his literary work. Wrecks and Ruins is partially set in Lithuanian, and The Color of Jadeite occurs in China. This gifted writer’s work is worth your consideration.
