How to jazz up a dodgy balcony. #warsaw #poland #pink Malbork castle is not really all that, but I liked this door knocker. #poland #malbork #pleasenotanotherarmory The "flapjack" (breakfast bar) I grabbed in the Warsaw train station is 16 percent butter and proud of it. 😮 #warsaw #poland #butter #goodgrief The cat suspects something is up. #foreignservice #expatriate #moving #shorttiming Silver "baby." #warsaw #poland Pretty kitty on the balcony. #warsaw #poland #spring #cats House of Cards. #warsaw #poland #streetart It may be difficult to adjust to an environment in which I am not invited to buy ice cream twice on every block. 🍦😁 #spring #warsaw #poland #shorttiming
