During my stay in the northern Polish city of Gdansk, I hired a bicycle and rode 10 km to Westerplatte, the former Polish Military Transit Depot.
Westerplatte is the site of the first clash between Polish and German forces during the invasion of Poland and thus the beginning and the first battle of World War II. The first bullet shot in WWII was shot here.
Nowadays, there are memorials to those that fought and died here and an open air museum, a well as ruins of former barracks. It makes for an interesting day out if you are in the beautiful city of Gdansk.
----------------------------------------------------
After 18 months of a life on pause, thanks to the sodding corona virus, and endless hours on Google Maps checking out all the places I want to visit, the time has finally arrived to begin my travels in Europe.
Starting in Berlin, I plan to travel east as far as Georgia and taking in pretty much all of the countries in between.
I will be vlogging my way through Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Moldova, Turkey and probably many more.
