Apple orchards nearly as
far as the eye can see.
Endless blue skies.
Rolling green hills and fertile
farmland.
Honey bees bumbling around
the pretty blossoms.
This is springtime in Poland.
Last week, when I took a
personal roadtrip to Czersk, I was
astounded by the beauty in Poland’s countryside. I almost felt nostalgic for my
homestate of Nebraska as I encountered farmers on their tractors on the
road and in the fields. Farmers are a familiar sight in Poland, but certainly
not in the city where I spend most of my time.

Sometimes, I get so
preoccupied planning my daily schedule that I forget to take time to admire Mother
Nature and soak up all the beauty that surrounds me. I’m rushing off to my
pilates class, quickly buying groceries at the market or running late to meet a friend for coffee and then
I completely forget all those little things.
But as you’ll see in this photo
post, the little things often matter the most in life. Those white blossoms or
those blue skies, for example.
So I tried to capture the
beauty I saw in Poland’s countryside the other day. I hope you’ll enjoy the
photos!
Now who wants to come
visit us in Poland?

@joyce, Poland exports a lot of ag products like geese and foie to Germany, button mushrooms worldwide and raspberries all over Europe. I can't wait til berry season!
@Ozlem, definitely! Our spring weather has been incredible lately! :-)
Poland wasn't a place I'd considered visiting but you are making it sound very tempting.
I'm trying to promote Poland! Maybe the tourism office should work with me! :-)
