As autumn began slipping back into winter, I pedalled as fast as I could towards the Ukrainian border, hoping to outrun the inevitable arrival of the snow.

I left Kraków and made my way into the foothills of the Carpathian mountains before the temperature plummeted; the days were getting shorter and shorter, and I found myself cycling through icy darkness day after day.

The freezing weather and scarce daylight brought new challenges, but I was distracted by the amazing the hospitality and generosity that I once again received from strangers; after long days shivering on the bike as I traversed Poland's quaint country lanes, I ended up warming myself on farms and in cabins, getting to know local people and seeing what life was like in Eastern Poland.
