USA, Canada / DO AMERICANS/CANADIANS TRAVEL TO POLAND???? [57]
I'd really like to travel to Poland one day and hope to meet relatives when I do eventually make it there. My maiden name is Szuszczewicz and I've been told that all of us with that name are related somehow. I've only been able to learn a little about Poland online since I just haven't seen tourism to Poland promoted here in the US. I don't speak the language, so that makes it difficult, too.
A friend of mine toured Poland by bicycle years ago and said it's a lovely country full of the nicest people. What she found lovely about it though, is that she's a socialist and said she found socialism to be working very well there and that the people loved it. I thought that was a little odd when she told me because some recent Polish immigrants, who lived there at that time, told me it was awful then.
Maybe it just depends on your perspective.
I just found this forum tonight.
