- ADVENTURE TRAVEL THROUGH POLAND
I booked the cheapest flights I could find (£92 return) from Leeds Bradford airport. Flinging in to Gdańsk then out of Wrocław with no plans or direction in between going where the wind blows me but in -9C! I have a sleeping bag and Bivvy as fall back accommodation to survive which I use several times to save money. I also book some lovely places to stay along the way allowing me to explore the cities. I meet loads of lovely kind people, eat some incredible food, see the sights and have a few beers. I love to explore and push my comfort zone. Language was the biggest barrier but I’m good at charades👌
Get out and make your own adventures 👊
All love
Al

PHDesigns - Snowline Bivvy Bag
Insulated waterproof bivvy bag designed to add 7C to your sleep system. It will protect your sleeping bag from external muck and
moisture which works great for me with the mutt. Being insulated with Primaloft Gold also helps with moisture management reducing the chance of condensing water wetting out your down sleeping bag. This system is ideal for multi night adventures in cold conditions with minimal weight (560g).

I admire European Countries, they not only built homes and buildings to live and work in, they built them for the eye, and they have the freedom to paint and decorate their sections of the building to their preferences, and it isn't just a big blank building. The architecture there is just amazing. The US has very limited areas with true architecture, anything modern is just bland.
Yes old cities have so much character and feel more homely. I love exploring them!
Merry Christmas Al lad. That extends to your family.
Your sense of adventure is amazing. Thanks for showing us Poland and its great people and places.
I'm loving this trip. You're a braver man than I, rocking up to a city and planning to sleep rough. I'm looking forward to the next installment.
Witaj w naszej Polsce.Polska to piękny kraj.🤍❤
Love thisp Poland un. Fantastic trip!
Your adventurous spirit is always an inspiration brother. Poland seems to be quite the remarkable country without a doubt! Loved your simple bivvy camp right there on that stunning beach as well 👍 Hope you have a very Happy New Year my friend! Cheers!
It’s nice having the Bivvy… it makes you appreciate a bed more😂
@@BUSHMANandBLUE LOL!! 😂 So very true mate... so very true!
I just found your channel by chance butam loving your travels through Poland.I'm English and actually live near Poznan
Welcome mate👊
What a fun adventure. Can’t believe you slept outside in the snow when you probably had 25 offers of a warm bed for the evening! 😂
😂 I think I was safest alone😂
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Enjoy it, you deserve it Al
Loving your Poland adventure and can't wait for the next episode! I hope you're feeling better, and Merry Christmas to you and yours, Al 😊
Thanks. One more to come ☺️
Great stuff Al! Coincidentally, I'm on a train trundling through Romania viewing the snowy mountains as well as your video. I kind of live the lifestyle you share here and it's reassuring to know that perhaps I'm not completely nuts by travelling around with loose, flexible plans. Best way mate. Just today I missed my train from Bucharest but the kindness of the locals saw me good and proper. Like you say, it needn't cost much. I'm just hoping that I get twenty five women cheering me on over Christmas whilst I'm here! Keep it up mate!
Awesome mate and good luck finding the 25 happy women 😬👊
Replies like yours is the reason I enjoy 'em as much as the video.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada, U.S.A.
Another amazing episode thanks for taking us along with you 😊
Loving this, Al. You’re so brave going to somewhere you don’t speak the language and just winging it day by day. Love all your videos.
😂 it’s all part of the excitement
Great video looks safer than the streets of England
Top bloke, inspirational 💪🏻👌
Jeez Allen - a rotten cold and still going for the parkrun! And coming second! Fair play to you pal 👏
Yeah I couldn’t breathe 😂
Well, merry Christmas to you and your family!! Obviously, special hug and scratches to blue who i love!! Have a great new year, Al.
🥰 thanks
This is such a great series, really looking forward to the next one! 🎉
wow loving this journey , the places look amazing and the people seem so friendly , looking forward to the next one
I've been watching your vids for some time and I always smile at what you do. I'd love to do that kind of camping but alas I'm too old and have too amny ailments but I can enjoy the experience through you. Thank you
Thanks once again. It shows how your adventures in England are so special and how special English people are. I bet no-one in Poland goes out on bivvie camps or wanders up and down remote areas. The English always had thus sense of exploring. We did when we were kids in Cheshire.. wandering around Crewe.
Great idea..travel and park runs!
Just fantastic
Loved this little mini series, just pure adventure!
Amazing adventure. The people look wonderful.
Such a feel good movie! Cheers!
Brilliant. Just taking off on adventures and dealing with whatever happens is something we should all do more of.
Your adventures & videos go from strength to strength...followed you from your early days. Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas & All the best for 2024..
I like the videos before even ending them. Something very nice n humble about this man.
Really enjoying your travels x
Loving the videos and definitely the snow. Merry Christmas to you and the lovely Blue
👊
Another great video, thanks Alan. Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for amazing adventures in 2024 x
Thanks for the Christmas present: a new adventure 🥰. Wish you a merry evening with Blue. Hope you are well again 🤗
Merry Christmas, thank you for all the effort and time you put into providing inspiration and happiness. Cheers and ATB Sel
great stuff. all the best for the holidays
Loving this series of videos, keep them coming 👏 👌🏻 👍🏻
Loving the content. Look forward to the next.
Interesting videos very unique, waiting for next one
Brilliant video Al and a great example of why solo travel can be so amazing. Thanks for the many enjoyable videos you've made this year. Have a great Christmas.
Solo definitely has its benefits as no one else can blame you for your decisions😬
Merry Christmas 🎄 Awesome Park, before the beach.
Wonderful video as always !! Merry Christmas Al 🎄🎄🌟😊
beautiful content Al (this one and the other one). You've made me really want to go on some travels to visit Gdansk now!! :D And such great accommodation for such cheap prices too 👌🏻 and that lovely barman to give you a beer to take away, how kind of him! We love watching your adventures and this one was utterly brilliant, thank you for taking us along with you! :)
It’s definitely cheaper than the UK and really good food! Worth a visit.
Merry Christmas the videos continue to be top notch.
Loving the Poland trip 😎 hope you and Blue have a lovely Christmas 🎄
Thanks Dave enjoy👍
What a great adventure. Really admire you sleeping in a bivvy bag in the snow, in a foreign country with not many plans. Wow.
Merry Xmas Al, thank you for sharing all your amazing adventures with us!
Thanks Dave👊
Cheers bud, all the best
Merry Christmas!!
Great tour Alan. Merry Christmas ….you are amazing.
😂 maybe moments of amazing like anyone. I’m just me😬

Thank Viola 🥰
You are Amazing Alan you just keep going merry Christmas to you 🤶
What a great adventure Al. Making it up as you go along. Making more fantastic memories 👍
Btw, you’ll dance a jig on the top of Great End but not for 25 women! With your abs, could of made a killing there🕺🕺👍
😂 it was awesome just to have that freedom.
Happy New Year Bushman! And best regards to Blue and Caveman.
Cheers Andy Lad
2nd leg looked a tough one fella but every credit for getting up and doing that run when feeling rough as. Beach view looked ffffecking ffffreezing but then you brought it back with a lovely looking pizza and beer. May i take this opportunity to wish you and yours a fabulous Christmas and all the best for 2024. Take it easy Al lad and looking forward to the next one. Keep enjoying life and the outdoors pal.
Hope you have a good Christmas mate 😎all the best
Great adventure! Looked fun, especially the pizza restaurant lol! You definitely need to get in touch with the brewery and persuade them to get shipping that beer over here. Great video as always. Hope youve had a good Christmas.
Lovely video, Al. You're making me look at travel in a different way. It seems like your trip is turning out so much more amazing than if you had planned every detail before you left home. Sorry you were under the weather, though. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
There is definitely something special about not having a plan. It’s rather freeing 😬. Enjoy your Christmas 🥰
Poland is a beautiful country. Greetings from Radom
What a great and interesting journey, thank you! I am concerned that you are not well and I hope you do get a warm bed soon, for a couple of nights, to see off whatever it is.
Poor Blue wanted to come along with you WOOF WOOF . Have a awesome day tomorrow .
He would love travelling like that😬

Merry Xmas 🎄 hope Santa comes to visit in his sleigh 🛷 love from Ireland x♥️🎄
Thanks Maggie 🥰 (my mums name)
I also love standing infront of the ocean looking into nothingness... It humbles me somehow.
Awesome video!! ❤❤ And hope you are well again soon.
I love those moments of peace 😬
Really enjoying watching the Poland series mate, which country Next ……..??? 😮👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Visit southern Poland once you have a chance pal- great hills/mountains down here; you'd enjoy that.
Brilliant Al....perhaps you should start importing that beer?
Have a fantastic Christmas and I am looking forward to your 2024 adventures and projects!
That beer would be worth importing 😉👌
🤯 thats creazy! I just start watching your video because of youtube recommendation and you went to my hometown, Wejherowo! Omg world is so small..
Yes and I enjoyed the snowy parkrun😬
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 😅 well, I assure you it is very beautiful in summer and you can get tasty coffee in the restaurant that is there. But I'm happy we could have you😊
Hi I really enjoyed you video Alan, you made a very entertaining video out of nothing so too speak. You where really creative with what you had to work with and you shared your adventure with everyone on the channel, keep them coming please mate
Hope you are over your bug and are having a great xmas
Give Blue a hug for me
Cheers Dave
Cheers Dave.
My wife and I made the same trip in February, stayed in Gdańsk but took the train to Sopot, the snow was even thicker and the sea was actually starting to freeze, unlike the uk, Poland doesn’t grind to a halt
Beautiful place to visit in winter😬
I'm , coming down with something, very tired so I'm just going to do this run in the snow, commitment
😂
That sea looks Baltic!!!😂
Haha
OMG Alan, you are crazy to go to Poland in the winter time. This is my hometown I know how cold is that can be on winter time. 😂
It was lovely 🥰
Alternating between air b&b and bivvy each night is great way to do it!
It saved some money for definite but I always get to shower and chill too👌
Not sure about running round a park at the moment but I have just run a bath after about a pound of cheese and biscuits. Get well soon Al 👍
Did the ladies think you were a male stripper?😂 Top film Allen. Wishing you and Blue a very Merry Christmas🤶 and a Happy New Year 🍾
😂 it’s not often I’m intimidated 😂 They were actually all lovely
Absolutely love this video brilliant camping and like a tour guide for places to visit #alstoursofeurope
I'm 44 years old, I'm from Poland and I've never seen a snowy Baltic beach in my life. Yes, I live in the south of Poland, but for about 20 years I have rarely seen snow in my city (Wrocław)🤣
😂 I visit Wrocław next👊
Merry Christmas ⛄🎁 Al! I would have slept in the ❄️ snow too so as to end up with a 🍕 pizza house full of women... although the cackling hens would have perhaps begun to hurt the eardrums 😂
It reminded me so much of my European 🏤🏰 hitchiking/trekking tours throughout Europe with a full rucksack during the 80/90's, doing exactly as you're doing it...without plans.
Great stuff mate. Really enjoyed watching it.
By the way...what was the name of that Polish beer 🍺?
Great memories I’m sure. Always worth just going in any direction and seeing what happens😬
Thought you did your parkruns topless? Great video as always.
😂 it’s not often I wear a top when running but it’s starting to get cold😂
I enjoyed this, in fact I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. These kind of videos suits you and is a refreshing change of pace.
Speaking about pace, as a runner myself, I also enjoyed this aspect. Have you considered creating a running/cycling channel?
I definitely could but I don’t want to take too much on and dilute the quality 👍
Great adventure, are you planning to visit Polish mountains? I think it might be more in line with what you like the most :)
Next time I go for definite!
🦋🦋 Another great vid 🦋🦋 there’s a song called the littlest hobo, would love if u would do a remake of that with blue, people would love it 🦋🦋
I used to watch the littlest hobo when I was a kid. I sang part of it on one of my earlier vids😂
That´s great you are showing us another countries. Have you think about Spain? For example on the winter .....mountains close Malaga are great for hiking
I’d go anywhere really👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You are actually bonkers 🤣
Would love to know your kit, what's in the bags for this international trek? Be safe and enjoy your glorious adventure!
Nothing interesting. Just clothes for all possibilities
I sense a big announcement coming.
Impressive to just set off to a country that you don't know and find your way - definitely the definition of adventure! I guess the personality must help a wee bit!?
Being adaptable 😉
Fair play mate, you looked a bit apprehensive at the begining, like, am I on the right station, am I on the right train, am I going in the right direction. Yeah, fair play to you Al. Hope to see you back in Blighty soon, and back in the mountains. How about an adventure high in the Scottish Highlands, Torridon or Ullapool way?
Navigating the train stations was the hardest part as the tickets were not obvious of where to go but I managed 😬. I’m sure I’ll be visiting Scotland again soon
Al, there was a bit here where I though you might need to be rescued...
You know what William Butler Yeats said:
"There are no strangers here; only friends you haven't yet met."
Take care and happy days to you and those you love.
👍🏾
Love ur videos much love from the midlands x how's it feel without ur sideman blue wen u travel alone ? Merry Christmas 🎄 to u and blue and the family roll on 2024 🎉
I actually miss him and his eyes and ears. Always lets me know who is around👌
@@BUSHMANandBLUE he's so precious to you we can see xx
So what You think do You like Poland….come back in summer it is even nicer ✌️
Maybe the tatra mountains in summer👌
hey, if you like Poznan, go to Wroclaw, I can guarantee you'll love it:)
I continue on to Wrocław 😊
