Taking us to multiple spots, gearing it towards our loves (bread baking) giving us traditional Polish foods to try that were some of the most delicious bites we’ve had in Europe. Storytelling like a pro with pictures of the same markets a hundred years before. I couldn’t have dreamed up a better tour.”
