Austria, the landscape of our hearts

Wednesday, June 26th, 2024 Austria 14-17.6.2024 Half dead, after maybe three hours of sleep, we left Mikulov for Austria. For some reason, neither of us slept much. The reason might have been that some wine parties around the hotel were celebrated in several nearby pubs and hotels. When we left in the morning, we were given two bottles of organic wine as a present, whose destiny we wondered about, but ultimately, we left them at our next accommodation as a present.

It occurred to me how shocking and traumatic it must be to be woken up day, week, and month after the other by such alarms. In the morning, we checked the news to see if there was any explanation for the happening, but all we

The First Leg in Poland

Tuesday June 11th, 2024 The morning in Poland dawned for us in a small, cozy guest house in the town of Elk. A hearty breakfast was a nice change and with that, we headed towards Bialystok passing by the local church. The name had already been given to us at home when we were planning the route of the journey. The plan was to go to the churches to leave flyers and possibly talk to someone who would be there. But when we arrived in town, we found that all the churches in the town center were packed to the
