My family lives in Warsaw and Wroclaw. I spent the first two weeks in Wroclaw, visited the city twice and spend the rest of the time at home going for runs in the woods, playing with the kids and preparing for my interview.

For easter, my family gathers in Janske Lazne, a little town in the northern part of the Czech Republic. In summer, it looks like this

And this is how it looked like from the top of the Cerna Hora (translated: black mountain) during our easter hike :)

After easter I went to visit the rest of the family in Warsaw. Met up with a polish burner that is coming to the regional israeli burn this year and had one intense day of being a tourist. We were so lucky with the weather!

Of course, I had to check out the Palace of Culture and Science, a gift from soviet Russia to the polish people.

It is a nice contrast to the sky scrapers around it, posing as the centre of the business area of Warsaw

Here is a view from the top

The rest of the days I spent playing football with the children and drinking heavily with my uncles. Alcohol is hard to avoid in Poland...
