Krakow - a most special place!

by tini58de - last update: Sep 3, 2006

Meeting my Polish "sister"

with Karolina and her parents on Rynek square
We had booked this trip to Krakow in summer of 2005,
because I really wanted to go back to this beautiful city
which I had visited before in 1983.

It was a mere coincidence, when we found out later that year,
that my Polish "sister" Karolina - the bone marrow recipient from 2003 -
lived only 80 km away from Krakow! So of course we decided to meet and
that meeting made Krakow the most special place ever!

We spent a whole day together, talking, exchanging stories, eating,
drinking, sightseeing, laughing and crying

- but those were tears of joy!

 I very much enjoyed your Kraków page and was moved by the story of meeting Karolina. I admire your deeply humanitarian attitude. Best of luck!
