More to do in Gdańsk


Last weeks were surprisingly crazy for me. I thought i might have published this post before my trips. Actually, I haven't found a free second to do so. But here it is, a small thing before the next two, a lot more fascinating posts.


At 8am we took a train to Gdańsk. There were four of us, my friends and I. Having a free day at school was an excellent time to get away from it all and go somewhere. The road was 3 hours long and before 12am we were walking through Długa street. We have visited the Gdańsk's Photography Galerie where was an exhibition of Zuzanna Szarek and Hanna Śliwińska works. It was connected to Czesław Miłosz's poem about apocalypse "Piosenka o końcu świata". Student ticket costs 1zł because of the UE finance. Also the streets were full of small galeries and i entered one with Anna Baranowska's works.











Then we walked to the Shakespeare's Theatre because of it's architecture. It is built of black blocks in a very strict style. The minimalistic half of me had chills by looking at it- amazing. In the information centre we asked for the way to a place full of parrots, called Papugarnia. That was our main attraction and it was wonderful! I know some can say parrots don't feel the same, but how many times in a lifetime i'll be able to be that close to this kind of birds? Tickets costed from 12 to 18zł as it depends on the type plus the seads 2,50zł. I recommend wearing long-shaved shirt- their claws were quite sharp and we ended up full of scratches.








Then we took a SKM (train between  tricity) to Gdynia just because my friend needed to visit "the best pizzeria ever" called Gdynianka. I haven't tried their pizza because i went with my vegan friend to eat burgers in "I krowa cała". And i really liked it! So those are two food spots which me and my friends can recommend. Ticket between Gdańsk and Gdynia costed 4zł with a student discount. Also do not forget to validate a ticket before entering. We had to stop on the closest station to do that. 
After all, quite tired and with a full stomachs we came back home. 
(More info: one line discount tickets for tram or bus costed more or less 2zł and normal tickets were twice as expensive)




I like one day trips like that but next time i need to visit Tricity for a whole weekend.

I can feel holiday time coming and that's all i need nowadays! But last weeks weren't boring and there is a lot to tell about; sailing for the very first time and newly discovered love to bavarian pretzels. Just wait for it! But for now, let's get back to reality and school work.

See ya!
