6th EuroVT-Meet: Krakow, Poland 28-29-30 May 2010

by matcrazy1 - last update: Jun 27, 2009

TRAVELING IS MY LIFESTYLE!

ME AT SAKLIKENT GORGE IN TURKEY
YOU ARE WELCOME VERY MUCH! WOW!

One of the best things on VT is possibility to meet real and cool people from all over the world who share the same passion to travel and discover the world. I was lucky to meet many.


No matter you are quite new to VT or an old VT-animal you are welcome very much to join the 6th official Virtual Tourist European Meeting which will take place in Krakow, Poland on 28-29-30 May 2010. If you never joined any VT-meet, no worries. I can guarantee that after first 5 minutes you will feel like at family and friendly home. I can only smile now how nervous I was before joining my first ever larger VT-meet in Oceanside, California in 2003. But I did it and I am happy now :-))).

More details: EuromeetKrakow2010 page.

Sign up to attend the meeting here, please.

Read and join please:
- general discussion on Krakow's Euromeet
- discussion on How to get to the meeting.
Warning: it's a lot of reading.





The first pre-meeting for Euro 2010 Meet posted by DAO will take place in Krakow on 10 July (and 11-12, I think). We will do research on local bars, restaurants, food, beer, and at least one hotel. More volunteers needed. You are welcome :-)! Sign up to attend the meeting here, please.




POSTCARDS :-)))

Thank you very, very much :-)))



IN FRONT OF BISHOP PALACE, KRAKOW

Pope John Paul II

"Freedom is not simply the absence of tyranny or oppression nor is freedom a license to do whatever we like. Freedom is ordered to the truth, and is fulfilled in man's quest for the truth and living in the truth."
John Paul II


Pope John Paul II born in Wadowice, Poland in 1920, died today at 9.37 pm in Vatican. Sadness...
02 April 2005.

Although I am not crazy about religion, any religion, it's far more than the simple fact for me, it's also a lot of emotions. After death of John Paul II I wanted to go to his funeral but I had to stay at work. Instead I visited four times Krakow (JPII was bishop there), Wadowice (birthplace) and small village off the beaten path called Niegowic (he was a priest there in 1948-1949).

Step by step I am trying to put up my personal albums below, travelogues on the above mentioned pages as well as on my hometown Tychy and Poland page. I want to show you spirit of Poland in these unusual days and share some of my pictures, my thoughts and reflections and pay tribute to the great man who taught millions in 122 countries, he visited, what tolerance to other people and religion is, what is freedom and human dignity. Enough to said.

 Hi Matt! I'm glad the card arrived so fast. Sometimes it takes ages. Now I'm waiting for yours. Cheers back from very sunny Ankara:)

 I love old castles. Malbork looks like it might be an interesting day trip pre/post the Euromeet.

 Hi Matt. How are things? I would look forward to meeting you in Poland next year, but airfares I've seen from NYC are all well above $900 USD. Too rich for my blood.
