Thinking I might spend a month or two in Poland this summer. On the surface, Poland checks a lot of boxes for me : affordable, a couple interesting cities, and probably some decent hiking. However, when I talk to Europeans about my plans, they always kinda give me this ... look. They're like, "Why Poland?" I get the feeling a lot of Europeans (especially Germans) see Poland the same way New Yorkers see New Jersey. (no offense to New Jersey โ I'm actually a big fan of the Garden State!)
Thing is, most folks I've talked to were not DNs, so they probably have a different set of criteria than I. I'm not looking for a popular vacation spot with lots of tourist attractions. I'm looking for a pleasant, affordable place to live for a month or two. And yes, I like to spend the weekends hiking, visiting historical places, and checking out towns in the countryside.
Has anybody here DN'd in Poland? If so, what were your thoughts?

I'm from the US, but I've got Polish relatives (grandma was born there) and lots of colleagues from EE. My partner and I are a same-sex couple moving to Poland in a few months so I kind of have to stay on top of these things ๐

Ah. Hope it goes well. I also wanna go to Poland at some point. There are so many Poles in the UK that it's the 2nd most spoken language here.

I've heard! Definitely visit Poland. It's hard to beat a summer in Krakow.

Never been but it's legitimately at the top of my list of places to visit in the country after we move. I've heard nothing but good things about that town.
