Restday + the missing informations



Yesterday was a pretty boring day we hardly did anything. I mean we did relax a lot which I frankly think was needed. Sara did her papers; I had my online class. My class was pretty much about how covid restrictions affect different countries economy, and we had to tell what’s the new covid-rules in our countries. I wouldn’t say it was pointless, but I do feel like I already knew these facts… I hope I won’t have another feeling at the final exam though!

Although it was raining the whole day, we decided enough is enough and we couldn’t sit in the room for another minute, so after class we walked to the nearest bigger shop to by some food for dinner. It was a nice little walk, and I was wondering, how much the rain could change the air quality. You see, this is a quite big city, but somewhere around late September the leaves’ begun to changing and stopped producing oxygen. That means most of the city’s lunges died, and our fresh oxygen is imported to the city by the wind from pinewoods around Warsaw. So, on a normal dry day, the only “air freshener” is the wind. But on a rainy day the rain; the water can also observe come CO2 as does the huge water bodies around the continents called oceans. I still need to do some research, but my hypothesis is something like the city’s air has less CO2 on a rainy day than on an average dry day.

I told you yesterday about the difference between the Chopin and the Modlin Airport, but I didn’t know the exact prices. So, if you go to Chopin Airport you can just by a simple public transport ticket and get on the S2 train – the ticket cost 3.40 zloty – but if you wanna go to the Modlin Airport you have to by a different ticket – costs 19 zloty. This price difference is something that you might have to take in count when you are planning your trip/Erasmus to Warsaw.

Oh, and I almost forgot it! I did cook of fry some chickpeas for lunch which actually almost tasted like meat! If you wanna cut down on your meat intake for environmental or whatever reason fried chickpeas are a great option!

God I'm a good cook!

That's it for today, I hope you are well, and I'll see you tomorrow,

Take care

Last Day in Warsaw

Image
  Our last day in Warsaw… When we got up the whole apartment was basically completely empty. Nothing was left, but a few backpacks, the food in the fridge, and the clothes we were about to put on. It was really sad. To start the morning exciting, and cheer ourselves up a bit we started our day in Costa Café or the Nero café — I honestly have no idea — where instead of coffee we drank chai latte. Sari did made me chai latte before, but since we don’t have either a printer nor the balls to print money we used cheep coffee and cheep chai thingy, which meant I was almost drinking something completely different. I absolutely loved the chai latte they gave me, so did Sari. Bummer, I wish I knew about this earlier. After our coffee break we packed everything and headed for the last shopping, we bought the little things that were absolutely needed for our successful trip home: bread, doughnuts, and the missing kinda beers. It was a successful trip. Then we drove home, prepared our meals fo...

Eastern Poland

  Yesterday we broke the record of the number policeman we have met ever in a day. They were everywhere. However before getting in to that we started our day in Bialystok. Where it was -10°C in the morning! I got us some breakfast then till Sari packed our staff I went to get our car. While I was walking to it I checked all the cars on the street how icy were they trying to assume how thick ice cover did my car grow overnight. Luckily the car was only covered with some snowish loose staff that was easy to get rid off with a broom. However in the inside everything was frozen. The motor didn’t even start for the first time, then when it finally started it sounded like when you didn’t put the dishes properly in the washing machine and everything falls out, that was the exact same noise my motor was sounding. It was definitely not pleasant.  The temperature had risen to -8°C by the time we got to our first stop. It was the Church of Trezescinka: a beautiful huge wooden church with...

Sunday Market

  Yesterday we went to the Sunday Market. Or actually we went to a Sunday market – I suppose there are several Sunday markets all over Warsaw. The one we went to is called Gielda Staroci na Kole. Although it wasn’t as big as the Sunday market in Pécs, I still wouldn’t call it small. As we saw they mostly sell porcelains, old coins, tools, and similar useful goods. Visiting this market was quite an experience! The market itself takes place at a closed garden, but the garden seems to be not big enough for all the sellers, some of them sell their staff on the street right next to the market! First, we didn’t even know what’s up with that place. We didn’t see the conception. It took some time and some walking for us to comprehend what’s going on. I might’ve told you earlier, my plan was to buy a bike, so I could ride it to the uni, so one of the reasons we went to the market to see if they have bikes, if they have how much they cost, and what they look like. Well unfortunately they ...
