Hi all

Leave uk on 10 th

Surgery in Poland on the 13 th febuary

Going alone

Nervous , but excited .

Just hope it works

I used to live in Slovakia and we'd go to Poland for skiing and drinking weekends...it's a beautiful country! Not that you'll have a ton of time for shopping, but they've got the most gorgeous ceramics there...

Thanks jeanie

That's makes me feel better

@@robbie&kaitlyn - so glad!

Just out of curiousity, where in Poland? I was in the Peace Corps, and my best friend there lived in a mountain town called Poprad that was just on the other side of the border from Zakopane, a ski resort town we used to go to all the time. We also went clubbing in Krakow and had the most amazing blowout weekends there...ah, to be young enough to stay awake past 10:00 pm...

Seriously, though - will you have time to sight see? The Tatry mountains are stunning, and some of those old cities have unbelievably beautiful medieval castles and churches. Beer's awesome, too (although you probably won't be doing a lot of that, what with the surgery and all.

I'm writing this from my hospital bed in the Czech Republic. I also came alone from the UK and it's been fine. In hindsight I think it's better because if people had been here we would have had to talk about it and I would just have gotten myself more wound up.

I would have gone alone to Mexico if all my friends hadn't freaked out. So I paid for my mom to come out (retired RN who speaks Spanish). It was a waste of time, except to catch up with her. You will be fine alone.

Kraków is the part of Poland

I no what you mean after 10 pm

If I feel up to it . I Defo be having a look around

So looking forward to it now . Thanks everyone
