Wybory w Krakowie będą testem nie tylko dla kandydatów walczących o władzę w mieście, ale również dla największych partii politycznych przed wyborami parlamentarnymi w 2027 r.

You step off a train in cities like Paris, Florence, Vienna, or Amsterdam and it feels like centuries of wealth, art, empire, and philosophy are layered directly into the streets. The architecture alone can overwhelm you. Cathedrals built before entire countries existed in the Americas. Cafés where writers, revolutionaries, and painters spent decades shaping culture. The infrastructure is polished, the museums endless, and even ordinary neighborhoods can feel cinematic. But what surprises many travelers is how deeply routine it all is for locals. The beauty becomes normalized. People casually drink wine beside buildings older than most civilizations in the Western Hemisphere. Western Europe feels refined, stable, and historically “finished” in a way few regions on Earth do. Eastern Europe hits differently. It feels heavier, rawer, and in many ways more honest. The scars of war, communism, occupation, and survival are still visible in the architecture and mentality. Cities like Budapest, Belgrade, Kraków, Bucharest, or Sarajevo carry a tension between old-world beauty and recent hardship. You can walk through grand Austro-Hungarian boulevards, then see Soviet apartment blocks only minutes away. The people are often less performative for tourists and more direct in conversation. Prices are lower, nightlife can be wilder, and the atmosphere feels less commercialized than Western Europe. There's also a stronger feeling that history here was not just written in books but lived recently by grandparents still alive today. Eastern Europe often leaves travelers with deeper memories because it feels less filtered and more emotionally textured. One of the biggest differences between traveling Europe and traveling Latin America is the relationship between order and spontaneity. Europe, especially Western Europe, operates with systems that have been refined for generations. Trains run on schedules. Streets were designed for walking centuries ago. Public life functions with a certain predictability. Latin America feels more alive in a chaotic sense. Plans change. Conversations last longer. Bureaucracy can feel irrational one moment and strangely human the next. In Europe, efficiency often dominates culture. In Latin America, relationships dominate culture. Neither is automatically better. One gives structure and reliability. The other gives warmth, adaptability, and energy. Travelers who understand this distinction usually enjoy both regions far more because they stop expecting them to operate the same way.

Mija rok od drugiej tury wyborów prezydenckich, wygranych przez Karola Nawrockiego i obóz Prawa i Sprawiedliwości. Dokładnie 1 czerwca o godz. 20 zapraszamy na specjalne wydanie "Stanu Wyjątkowego", w którym Andrzej Stankiewicz, Kamil Dziubka, Dominika Długosz i Jacek Gądek podsumują pierwszy rok po wyborach i wspólnie odpowiedzą na pytania subskrybentów Onet Premium. Zapisz się! Szczegóły: https://wiadomosci.onet.pl/kraj/specjalne-wydanie-stanu-wyjatkowego-dolacz-do-wydarzenia/rq61t2b  Skończyły się czasy, gdy słowa Jarosława Kaczyńskiego, jego wola i kaprys ważyły na prawicy więcej, niż prawo i niż sprawiedliwość. Po tym, jak prezesowi PiS posłuszeństwo wypowiedział Mateusz Morawiecki, następny w kolejce ustawia się Karol Nawrocki. Prezydent właśnie kompletnie zignorował sygnały ostrzegawcze wysyłane z Nowogrodzkiej w sprawie obsady stołka I prezesa Sądu Najwyższego. Nie ma co kryć — w trwającej politycznej wojnie o kształt wymiaru sprawiedliwości I prezes Sądu Najwyższego to posada kluczowa. Dlatego Kaczyński nie chciał się zgodzić na nominację dla sędziego Zbigniewa Kapińskiego, który ponad ćwierć wieku temu uczestniczył w wydaniu orzeczenia uznającego, że Lech Wałęsa nie był agentem komunistycznej bezpieki. Udowadnianie, że Wałęsa to „Bolek" nadaje życiu Kaczyńskiego sens, więc nie ma się co dziwić, że prezes oczekiwał od swego prezydenckiego wybrańca, że nie zgodzi się na takiego kandydata. A Nawrocki po cichu Kapińskiego powołał — czyli olał Kaczyńskiego. Dla jasności: nie był w tej prezesowskiej olewce sam. Za Kapińskim lobbowali ważni w pisowskiej kaście ludzie: nie tylko zbuntowany Morawiecki, ale także zmarginalizowany Andrzej Duda i odchodząca szefowa Sądu Najwyższego, była wiceminister w rządach PiS Małgorzata Manowska. Znaczy to tyle, że jest na prawicy grupa polityków, którzy mają wystarczającą siłę, by przeforsować swych ludzi na ważne stanowiska — mimo oporów Kaczyńskiego. Tak się zaczyna detronizacja. Ale naturalny — od ponad dwóch dekad — przeciwnik Kaczyńskiego, szef Koalicji Obywatelskiej Donald Tusk także przeżywa problemy. Rok temu dostał ciężkie baty, bo jego kandydat Rafał Trzaskowski przegrał wybory prezydenckie. Teraz z kolei — raptem po dwóch latach kadencji — odwołany w referendum został prezydent Krakowa Aleksander Miszalski, ważna postać KO. W związku z tym twórcy słuchowiska politycznego „Stan Wyjątkowy" Andrzej Stankiewicz i Jacek Gądek analizują wyborczą skuteczność Tuska na rok przed wyborami parlamentarnymi. Wnioski są brutalne. Premier nie odrobił lekcji po ubiegłorocznej porażce Trzaskowskiego. Koalicja Obywatelska wciąż nie potrafi prowadzić kampanii w nowych realiach, gdy trzeba walczyć z botami rozpowszechniającymi wytworzone przez AI chwytliwe, kłamliwe treści. Tak teraz było w Krakowie, a za rok będzie tak w całej Polsce.

In hub cities like Budapest (Hungary), Prague (Czechia), and Kraków (Poland), the lifestyle balances dynamic urban energy with relaxed, old-world leisure, featuring iconic café cultures, historic ruin bars, and extensive green spaces. For digital nomads, these Central-Eastern nations provide ultra-fast fiber-optic internet, expanding networks of modern co-working spaces, and strong English proficiency among locals. Furthermore, the establishment of official digital nomad visas across the region simplifies legal, long-term stays, allowing professionals to enjoy a high quality of life without the administrative stress of frequent border runs. Moving further south into the Balkan peninsula and outward to the Black Sea coast, countries like Bulgaria, Romania, and Albania introduce an exceptionally cost-effective and ruggedly scenic lifestyle. Here, daily life centers around a slower, community-oriented pace, where organic local markets, affordable traditional dining, and easy access to dramatic mountain ranges or pristine coastlines dominate the routine. For remote workers, this subregion is a hidden gem: Romania and Bulgaria consistently rank among the global leaders for average broadband and mobile internet speeds, while towns like Bansko, Bulgaria, have evolved into world-renowned, year-round nomad villages. Whether you are navigating the historical streets of Bucharest or working from a seaside café in Albania—which offers a highly favorable one-year visa-free stay for US citizens—the region combines low overhead costs with robust connectivity, allowing your income to stretch significantly further than in Western Europe. #travel #travelblogger #nomad #easterneurope #digitalnomad #poland #solotravel #podcast

– Dużo wskazuje, że ta władza po prostu odejdzie – mówi radny PiS Michał Drewnicki przed referendum w sprawie odwołania prezydenta Krakowa Aleksandra Miszalskiego. Polityk przekonuje, że inicjatywa miała charakter oddolny, a mieszkańcy są rozczarowani działaniami władz miasta. W tle kampanii pojawiają się oskarżenia o propagandę finansowaną z publicznych pieniędzy i polityczny strach przed utratą władzy.

Kraków stoi u progu politycznego trzęsienia ziemi. Ponad 130 tysięcy mieszkańców podpisało się pod wnioskiem o odwołanie Aleksandra Miszalskiego. Jan Hoffman, jeden z liderów buntu, w rozmowie z Radiem Wnet tłumaczy: „To nie kwestie ogólnopolskie nas motywują, ale drastyczne tempo zadłużania miasta i paraliż komunikacyjny”.

Full Text of Readings Monday of the Fifth Week of Easter Lectionary: 285 The Saint of the day is Blessed Michael Giedroyc Blessed Michael Giedroyc's Story A life of physical pain and mental torment didn't prevent Michael Giedroyc from achieving holiness. Born near Vilnius, Lithuania, Michael suffered from physical and permanent handicaps from birth. He was a dwarf who had the use of only one foot. Because of his delicate physical condition, his formal education was frequently interrupted. But over time, Michael showed special skills at metalwork. Working with bronze and silver, he created sacred vessels, including chalices. He traveled to Kraków, Poland, where he joined the Augustinians. He received permission to live the life of a hermit in a cell adjoining the monastery. There Michael spent his days in prayer, fasted and abstained from all meat and lived to an old age. Though he knew the meaning of suffering throughout his years, his rich spiritual life brought him consolation. Michael's long life ended in 1485 in Kraków. Five hundred years later, Pope John Paul II visited the city and spoke to the faculty of the Pontifical Academy of Theology. The 15th century in Kraków, the pope said, was “the century of saints.” Among those he cited was Blessed Michael Giedroyc. Reflection Many people today face a life of suffering and discrimination due to physical handicaps. Let's ask Blessed Michael Giedroyc to pray for them that their situation might be addressed by society at large.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Michał Bylina is a Polish bassist and composer whose work bridges early music performance and new music for the instrument. In this conversation, Michał shares how a love of the past pulled them toward gut strings, Baroque style, and the Vienna bass tradition, plus the path from studying in Kraków to a year studying in Brussels with Korneel Le Compte. We dig into Michał's composing process, from writing cadenzas to building a huge library of bass sheet music and learning by analysis, along with current projects like a concerto inspired by the surviving bars of Dittersdorf's concerto for violone and an aria for countertenor and obbligato bass. Michał also talks about balancing music with life as a parent and work as a software developer, and what might come next.

Full Text of Readings Saturday in the Octave of Easter Lectionary: 266 The Saint of the day is Saint Stanislaus Saint Stanislaus' Story Anyone who reads the history of Eastern Europe cannot help but chance on the name of Stanislaus, the saintly but tragic bishop of Kraków, patron of Poland. He is remembered with Saints Thomas More and Thomas Becket for vigorous opposition to the evils of an unjust government. Born in Szczepanow near Kraków on July 26, 1030, he was ordained a priest after being educated in the cathedral schools of Gniezno, then capital of Poland, and at Paris. He was appointed preacher and archdeacon to the bishop of Kraków, where his eloquence and example brought about real conversion in many of his penitents, both clergy and laity. He became bishop of Kraków in 1072. During an expedition against the Grand Duchy of Kiev, Saint Stanislaus became involved in the political situation of Poland. Known for his outspokenness, he aimed his attacks at the evils of the peasantry and the king, especially the unjust wars and immoral acts of King Boleslaus II. The king first excused himself, then made a show of penance, then relapsed into his old ways. Stanislaus continued his open opposition in spite of charges of treason and threats of death, finally excommunicating the king. Enraged, the latter ordered soldiers to kill the bishop. When they refused, the king killed Stanislaus with his own hands. Forced to flee to Hungary, Boleslaus supposedly spent the rest of his life as a penitent in the Benedictine abbey in Osiak. Reflection Saints John the Baptist, Thomas Becket, Thomas More, and Stanislaus are a few of the prophets who dared to denounce corruption in high places. They followed in the footsteps of Jesus himself, who pointed out the moral corruption in the religious leadership of his day. It is a risky business.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran! – @realDonaldTrump (Apr 07, 2026, 6:06 AM) Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East. We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate. Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and consummated. On behalf of the United States of America, as President, and also representing the Countries of the Middle East, it is an Honor to have this Longterm problem close to resolution.

Bohater dwóch kontynentów wraca do ojczyzny. Ale zamiast owacji czeka go bieda, zapomniane zasługi i kraj rozpadający się na kawałki. Pięć lat na wsi. Puste kieszenie. Ameryka wciąż nie zapłaciła mu za siedem lat walki. Co robi generał, którego nikt nie potrzebuje?Spotkanie, które odbiera mowę. Konstytucja, która przeraża trzy imperia.I zdrada, która przychodzi stamtąd, skąd nikt się nie spodziewał.A potem: krakowski Rynek, podniesiona szabla i przysięga, od której wstrzymuje oddech cała Europa.Chłopi z kosami kontra rosyjskie armaty.Żydowski kupiec z Litwy, który zostaje pułkownikiem. I sukmana, która mówi więcej niż tysiąc przemówień.Piąty odcinek serii o Tadeuszu Kościuszce to historia o tym, że wolność albo jest dla wszystkich, albo nie ma jej dla nikogo.Wesprzyj podcast na patronite.pl/podcastlepiejteraz Postaw kawę na suppi.pl/lepiejterazŹRÓDŁA ODCINKA:Biografie podstawowe:Alex Storozynski: The Peasant Prince: Thaddeus Kosciuszko and the Age of Revolution (2009)Tadeusz Korzon: Kościuszko: Biografia z dokumentów wysnuta (1894/1896)Monica Gardner: Kościuszko: A Biography (1920, Project Gutenberg)James S.

History's greatest cities

Serving as a medieval royal capital, Kraków was a vibrant historical centre of culture, learning and commerce, symbolising the region's political and intellectual life for centuries. In this episode, travel writer and history buff Paul Bloomfield and historian Professor Natalia Nowakowska guide us through the streets, squares and stories of this ancient city. They consider how invasion, oppression, and renewal shaped the city we know today – as well as the complex history and legacy of the Jewish population that played such an important role in the city's success for many centuries before Nazi occupation.

Full Text of Readings Thursday of the Third Week of Lent Lectionary: 240 The Saint of the day is Blessed Angela Salawa Blessed Angela Salawa's Story Angela served Christ and Christ's little ones with all her strength. Born in Siepraw, near Kraków, Poland, Blessed Angela Salawa was the 11th child of Bartlomiej and Ewa Salawa. In 1897, she moved to Kraków where her older sister Therese lived. Angela immediately began to gather together and instruct young women domestic workers. During World War I, she helped prisoners of war without regard for their nationality or religion. The writings of Teresa of Avila and John of the Cross were a great comfort to her. Angela gave great service in caring for soldiers wounded in World War I. After 1918, her health did not permit her to exercise her customary apostolate. Addressing herself to Christ, she wrote in her diary, “I want you to be adored as much as you were destroyed.” In another place, she wrote, “Lord, I live by your will. I shall die when you desire; save me because you can.” At her 1991 beatification in Kraków, Pope John Paul II said: “It is in this city that she worked, that she suffered and that her holiness came to maturity. While connected to the spirituality of Saint Francis, she showed an extraordinary responsiveness to the action of the Holy Spirit” (L'Osservatore Romano, volume 34, number 4, 1991). Reflection Humility should never be mistaken for lack of conviction, insight or energy. Angela brought the Good News and material assistance to some of Christ's “least ones.” Her self-sacrifice inspired others to do the same.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Warsaw, Poland The FAQ is: "How do I decide when it's time to pay more for comfort or safety instead of pushing myself?" Budget travel advice is common; guidance on when frugality stops being smart for aging bodies is not. This is a silent tension for senior solo travelers. Answer:  ​​Here's the truth: saving money is never worth arriving exhausted, stressed, or injured. As we get older, comfort becomes a strategy, not a luxury. I ask myself one simple question: Will this choice give me more energy tomorrow? If the answer is no, I upgrade — whether that's a better seat, a closer hotel, or a taxi instead of public transit. Smart travel means spending where it preserves your strength and confidence, not proving how tough you still are.   60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today is to set up your phone to access your essential private information while keeping it secure.   Do you have the numbers saved somewhere easy to access? You should. If you're traveling anytime soon, you'll need this. I created a spreadsheet with all of my important information, hidden and password-protected. I don't save it all in one place, though. Be aware that nothing is completely secure, even writing something down on paper can be lost. If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into passwords, privacy, security, and the confidence it takes to travel solo as a woman in her prime. See Book A for addressing this concern about being solo and being secure. I traveled around the world solo for 90 days twice, so I needed this confidence and access. Find it at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's special destination is Warsaw, Poland  Today we're exploring Warsaw, Poland — a city of contrasts, where modern glass towers rise beside meticulously restored baroque palaces. For the solo woman traveler over 50, Warsaw offers culture, history, and accessibility that make it both inspiring and comfortable. Warsaw's sidewalks are wide and level, and public trams and buses are largely low-floor and wheelchair-accessible. English is spoken in most hotels, restaurants, and museums. Be mindful of the weather — summer can be warm, but spring and fall are ideal for sightseeing. Wear comfortable shoes, carry a light wrap, and take your time. On my visit….Here is my travelogue: I am at the train station, and I got here too early, so my train isn't on the board yet. It leaves in about 30 minutes, and the station is busy. I am in Warsaw, Poland. I arrived here yesterday on the train from Kraków, arranged to take a second train to the suburbs, and was met by Sophie, who hosted me last night. She made a lovely dinner for her family, including me, and then we went into the city and explored all the sights. We walked for two hours through Old Town, saw all the essential city buildings and statues, and also explored the university area. I liked it very much.  My first comment is that it's very green. It's flat, and the people are kind and respectful; they are all white. I have not seen any black people at all in this country; I've seen a few Asians, but otherwise, everybody is pretty much the same, and it's been enjoyable. There are so many famous people from Warsaw that I didn't know about, and I don't remember the names of many of the renowned scholars, mayors, presidents, and people who died in a plane crash in 2010, but there's a lovely statue to them.  I do know the musical legend Chopin, so he left a legacy here, including his heart, which is buried in a chapel in one of the cathedrals, so I thought that was a pretty interesting, fun fact. Why Visit Warsaw? Because it's a city that has reinvented itself without losing its soul, from royal castles to modern art, Warsaw welcomes solo travelers who appreciate resilience, beauty, and freedom. Exploring Warsaw's Historic Heart Begin your day in the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rebuilt brick by brick after World War II. The Castle Square (Plac Zamkowy) and the Royal Castle are primarily flat and wheelchair-friendly, with ramps and elevators available inside. The cobblestone streets can be uneven, but many sections have smoother side paths and level crossings. Stroll or roll along Krakowskie Przedmieście, or Suburb street, one of the most beautiful boulevards in Europe, lined with cafés, bookshops, and historic churches. Stop by the Church of St. Anne, where there's ramp access to the main sanctuary. Krakowskie Przedmieście is pronounced roughly as Krah-KOF-skyeh Psheh-DMYES-cheh, with the stress on the third syllable (KOF) and a soft 'ś' (sh-sound) at the end, meaning "Kraków Fore-town". Polish vowels are crisp, the 'w' often sounds like 'v', and 'sz' is a 'sh' sound, making it sound melodic yet distinct.  https://travel.usnews.com/Warsaw_Poland/Things_To_Do/Krakow_Suburb_Street_Krakowskie_Przedmiescie_63801/   For lunch, try traditional Polish fare at Zapiecek, where you can sample pierogi in a cozy, accessible setting. On my next trip to Warsaw, here are a few things I would do or do again. Visit the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews — one of Warsaw's most acclaimed museums. It's fully accessible, with elevators, wide galleries, and English-language audio guides. The interactive exhibits tell a 1,000-year story of Jewish life in Poland, and it's both educational and deeply moving. End your day in the Saxon Garden (Ogród Saski), one of Warsaw's oldest parks. Its paved paths, fountains, and shaded benches make it ideal for a restful stroll or quiet reflection before dinner. Start at Łazienki Park, a vast royal garden known for its graceful pathways and friendly peacocks. Wheelchair users can easily access the main lanes and enjoy views of the lake. Don't miss the Palace on the Isle, which offers accessible tours upon request, and look for the Chopin Monument — often the site of free outdoor concerts in summer. Next, head to the Warsaw Uprising Museum, dedicated to the 1944 resistance movement. The museum is fully wheelchair-accessible, with ramps, elevators, and accessible restrooms. It's a powerful look at the courage of Warsaw's citizens and a reminder of the city's indomitable spirit. For lunch or a break, stop at Hala Koszyki, a trendy food hall filled with accessible dining spaces, local Polish dishes, and people-watching opportunities. If you enjoy classical music, consider a Chopin recital at one of the small concert halls around the city center — many offer accessible seating and ramps. Travel Tips for the Solo 50+ Traveler: Warsaw's sidewalks are wide and level, and public trams and buses are largely low-floor and wheelchair-accessible. English is spoken in most hotels, restaurants, and museums. Be mindful of the weather — summer can be warm, but spring and fall are ideal for sightseeing. Wear comfortable shoes, carry a light wrap, and take your time. Why Visit Warsaw? Because it's a city that has reinvented itself without losing its soul, from royal castles to modern art, Warsaw welcomes solo travelers who appreciate resilience, beauty, and freedom.

I was in Poland, and the connection wasn't very easy. There aren't many flights from Gdansk to Helsinki, Finland. So, I was a bit concerned. However, fate smiled upon me that day. I was able to get to where I wanted and no delays. I was the only Finnair flight out of the airport that day because of a strike. However, I went, and it went well.

In this powerful conversation, Jason sits down with Bishop Vitalii Kryvytskyi, the Diocesan Bishop of Kyiv–Zhytomyr, to discuss faith, leadership, and the realities facing Ukraine today. This conversation offers a firsthand perspective on spiritual leadership, resilience, and hope in one of the most challenging periods of Ukraine's history. Born into a Polish-Ukrainian family in southern Ukraine, Bishop Vitalii joined the Salesians of Don Bosco in 1989 and was ordained a priest in 1997 after studying in Grodno, Kraków, and Lublin. After years of serving as a parish priest and youth leader across Ukraine, he was appointed Bishop of Kyiv–Zhytomyr by Pope Francis in 2017.
