Kelli Nørgaards "Top Ten List" af grunde at du skulle rejse til Szczecin Polen!

I <3 Poland! You must make your way to Krakow one day. It is one of my all time favorite European cities. I should have told you to be on the lookout for the Knorr Paprika, onion and garlic cubes. Like bouillon but better.

There are a few more spas in Poland - personally spending some time in the spring or summer, at one of those places that also has the horseback riding - sounds like something we should plan!
