I was in Gdynia in 2019 as a solo, 50+ year old American traveler. I took the train to Bydgoszcz on a whim, simply because I thought the name 'Bydgoszcz' was interesting. I liked Bydgoszcz so much, the lack of tourists, the quietness, the architecture, the Hotel Pod Orlem, that I stayed in Bydgoszcz for well over 3 weeks. To this day, I think of Bydgoszcz fondly as it was the perfect place for me at that time in my life.
I wanted to visit this town so much when I went travelling around Poland but it did not fit in with train times we needed for other cities n such a shame looks so beautiful
The balancing man statue is so awesome I would have never believed it but like they say seeing is believing what a hidden gem just remarkable and I see they used a cinderella styled wedding coach for people to sit and enjoy themselves and of course the deserts are always looking so good and the animatronic cleaning lady coming out of the automatic doors was unbelievable that definitely was unique what ingenuity went into doing that it was totally awesome to see and always love seeing the stain glass and hearing the wonderful organ music in the sanctuary and good job on finding the patches on your first store run and for free sounds good to me and you were given the opportunity to make your own soap awesome now how many people can say that and they turned out amazing good job so witytravels from all the impressive statues to the great hospitality and making your own soap and all the hidden gems this has been another incredible masterpiece from this wonderful country called poland ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
It's always good to visit the lesser known cities and places - sometimes they offer up the best surprises like this one did. I hadn't heard of it before but now I know where to go to find great Polish food and drink, the Museum of Soap and Dirt (which is definitely way cooler than it sounds!) and a lovable mascot crossing the river on a tightrope. Another terrific vlog from Poland!
When you have no expectations of what is going to happen it can lead to a surprising and enjoyable day. Museum of soap and dirt is certainly a lot more fun than it sounds! Thanks Matt!
It's so fantastic to visit these unknown or lesser known cities of Poland through your vlogs.. the cafes here seem to be outstanding with such amazing collections of beer and lattes 😍 it's awesome you got the free patch there from the information centre. Soap making sounds really exciting. Whoa...that half litre beer looked so Grande 😉...the meal there looked really tempting
We love cities like this. The cafes have so many options. Getting the patch for free was such a pleasant surprise. Highly recommend making soap if you ever get the chance! Thanks Adi!
I live here my whole life and I never heard of Okno Twardowskiego! It seems like most of the residents don't know about it So cool to learn something new about my hometown ^^
9:32 I have been passing true the Bydgoszcz. That kind of hospitality makes me want to come back and spend more time in the city. See you in the summer of 2023. The salesperson is the best proof of the city's hospitality.
Amazing Toruń is so close to Bydgoszcz. Torun is famous from Nikolaus Kopernikus "the man who stopped the sun and moved the earth". And also from gingerbread. It's a original and beautifull medival city.
when you're in Bydgoszcz it's great to step into this bakery chain Staropolska. They have the best cakes, sweets and other baked things. Also, a great café in town is Migavka. Their cakes and coffees are to die for.
Awesome video! The meringue looks so good! That is cool how that statue is balancing! That church is so pretty! The soaps that you made look nice! -Rory❤❤❤
Well, the fact that lots of tourists go would definitely not put us off, we'd want to know what all the fuss is about. Aw, the Christmas markets are being packed away....loved watching your market videos over the last few weeks, oh and Will, Christmas NEVER ends haha. Liking the look of those beers....oh and the meringue!! Fudge latte...looking good too. Woah, who is that making a pact with the devil? That's a bit freaky. That church is stunning too, we love visiting old churches. What a lovely gesture to give you the patch...and the sweets. We would definitely take a look around that museum, the encoding machine looks cool, very interesting. Loving that you're making your own Christmas soap bars. More mulled beer, we so need some of that!! Loved it as always both x
Thank you for the reminder that CHRISTMAS NEVER ENDS! The wizard who made a pact with the devil was very freaky. Glad we didn't see that show in the middle of the night! Polish people have been very welcoming and getting the patch for free was just another great example of the Polish hospitality. CHEERS! 🍻
Hi! This Video was recommend me in youtube and how surprise! I work in Rother Mills! I'm seeing me in this Video! I hope you spent good this time in Bydgoszcz ❤️
Amazing video guys! Can’t lie I had never heard of this place before - but thank you for showcasing it. The locals seem super friendly. Love the way you guys film your vlogs, excited to see what’s coming up! Congratulations on all the recent success!
Thank you so much! The locals in this video were very friendly; but that is nothing new in Poland. We have loved our time here. Thanks for all of the kind words. We have some really exciting plans for 2023. So stay tuned!
Nie każdy! Film z zeszłego tygodnia był z Poznania i Krakowa wyszedł w połowie grudnia. Do tej pory mamy 12 innych filmów z Polski na naszym kanale, a jeszcze kilka wkrótce! ❤️ 🇵🇱
Nice :) But you have missed still many things. Food: You should have tried the "Manekin" - pancakes and more. Also Hotel Bohema (5 stars) has nice restaurants (including "Black Diamond" where you eat in complete darkness and also "molecular kitchen" which is mix of physics, chemistry and a good food). And tea-place "Asia" (which is a shorted version of name "Joanna", not the continent). Then "Exploseum" - because in this area there was once a large German explosives manufacturing plant hidden deep in the woods, later chemical plant and currently a museum (and a large area that is very polluted). You can visit some (few) underground bunkers where Germans forced slaves (Poles, Jews and others) to work (a side note: do you know that word "slave" has its origins in word "Slav"?). Nearby city Toruń is a wonderful place - while other cities were destroyed (by Germans and later by Russians and their occupation over dozens of years), the Toruń is left in a relatively good shape. There are also plenty of dams (small ones) and summer-only boat you can travel (it is very cheap). Surrounding areas offer great kayaking routes - from easy to extreme. Thanks for a very nice video :)
@@WITYTRAVELS I mean it can give you a temporary boost - however like you said it's best to be done by the locals. They know what to look for that could make a video go viral. In general, we have an image of being a racist, anti LGBTQ and anti democratic country. Anything that helps fight that image is helpful I think.
To nie jest tajemnicza pasta. Smalec ze skwarkami, cebulą i jałkiem, którymi smarujemy chleb - zagryzamy kiszonymi ogórkami. Nazywa to się czekadłem. Kiedy czekasz na zamówione danie, możesz zająć się przegryzką.Czekadła są bezpłatne, wliczone w cenę zamówionego obiadu. Pozdrawiam. Jesteście bardzo sympatyczni.
I am in disbelief you decided to skip the nearby historic beautiful Toruń to visit Bydgoszcz instead. Shook! I mean Bydgoszcz has made a lot of progress, 20 years ago walking around Bydgoszcz there was hardly a spot your eyes could rest from the ugliness. They have made some some updates and it is not so dramatic any more. But Toruń is a whole different thing xd
Hi Guys, did you say stuffed cabbage ?! But, what was the filling ?! Usually is pork meat with rice or just meat. I'm curious, Greetings from Pole living in Germany :D

That is really special that we were able to show you something new. Thanks for the comment Marttna!

Grudziądz is also cozy and close by.
I recommend this it’s a must I have a few videos in Toruń it’s such a special place
Just came out with a video on Toruń!
when you're in Bydgoszcz it's great to step into this bakery chain Staropolska. They have the best cakes, sweets and other baked things. Also, a great café in town is Migavka. Their cakes and coffees are to die for.
Thanks for the tip Maurice!
Wow!I really enjoyed watching this vlog. You are both so lovely and positive. Dziękuję♡
Thank you so much! That is very kind of you to say! 😊 ☺️
Awesome video! The meringue looks so good! That is cool how that statue is balancing! That church is so pretty! The soaps that you made look nice! -Rory❤❤❤

We really enjoyed Bydgoszcz! More people should visit. ❤️ 🇵🇱
Thanks for the recommendation Julia!

@@WITYTRAVELS That's true. When you come next time, let me know :) I can recommend other places in Bydgoszcz worth visiting 🤩🤩🤩
Polska jest piękna 😍🇵🇱🥰. Zapraszamy 🥰😍🤗
Polska jest bardzo piękna. Dziękuję! ❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱
5:50 It's quite possible they do training for baristas or coffee roasters there. Good coffee shops in Poland often do such things.
That would make sense! ❤ 🇵🇱
You are wonderfull pair!
You are so kind! ☺️ 😊
Wow fun
Hey guys! Yes, it was a fun day.

I'd recommend sharing your videos on platforms such as reddit and other forum-like social medias
Hey Mateusz! We've heard that works. But think it helps when someone local shares it to a forum. Appreciate all the support! ❤🇵🇱
