Maybe you recall that we went to Poznan in Poland recently. Maybe you even remember that it was our second time; our first visit happening last November. Back then we did a post on the food of Poznan, covering a lot of options of where to eat in Poznan. Anyway, you can imagine we were looking very much forward to coming back this summer and eating more of the same stuff … [Read more...]
What to Do in Poznan in Summer
Cities change throughout the seasons; that’s nothing new. And although travel guides always debate the “best time to visit”, in the end they often admit that each season has its own benefits, its celebrations, its food, its fashions. We fell in love with Poznan during our first visit last November, but we weren’t prepared to find the city so different from that when we returned … [Read more...]
Seven Summer Festivals in Poznan
In Europe, summer time is of course also festival time. There is – pardon my French – a crap load of festivals, and people will travel a long way to attend them.

The Street Art of Poznan
After Dublin, Poznan in Poland seemed to be a bit of a tough cookie street-art-wise at first. But to err is human, isn’t it? We can’t deny that it started off bumpy. But it prepared us for a lot of politically motivated street art. Okay, what else do you have to tell us, Poznan? Guys, guys, easy: we can make this work! Let’s just be a bit more chilled… … [Read more...]
Things to do in Poznan, Poland
Ok, I have to admit that before the City of Poznan e-mailed me and asked if we were interested in coming to visit and seeing what there was to do in Poznan, I’d never heard of it. I’d also never visited Poland, but after doing a minimal amount of research, it seemed like the sort of place that we were likely to enjoy. The slight downer was that we were only able to squeeze a … [Read more...]
