About Me
Welcome to Travels in Poland
Cześć
Welcome, I’m Diana
As a Polish-American, I have lived in and traveled around Poland for a better part of three decades. Yikes, makes me feel old. Yet, it ALSO makes me feel a bit like a Poland expert!
Today, I use my knowledge to help fellow travelers just like you explore Poland like a pro! I’ll help you have the Poland trip of your dreams, so you can cross Poland off your bucket list!

My passion is helping travelers like you cross travel in Poland off your bucket list…
As a former analyst crunching numbers and staring at spreadsheets, I decided to embrace my passion for writing and traveling about my family’s home country of Poland.
What you’ll get from me is the perspective of Polish-American who is an experienced traveler within Poland, has a family home in Tarnow, Poland and who has a community of family and friends in cities all over Poland.
I am also a native Polish speaker and have the added benefit of switching between languages to get both a local and a tourist experience everywhere I traveled.
In fact, apart from my usual travels in Poland, I embarked on a major 12-week, Poland road trip in the summer of 2023.
The road trip took me across 25 major cities plus medium sized cities and small towns, individual sites and national parks and places of interest, many of which I have already visited! But a refresher into what is new is always needed.
I visited hundreds of sites including Hitler’s Bunker, over half a dozen concentration camps, natural forests and reserves, various mountain ranges, spa towns, churches, towns, historical buildings, locations and so much more.
It will take me years to share with you what I know about Poland and everything I learned about traveling in the country. There is a lot to share!
In fact, I’ve also had many people ask me about my experience and visit. Soon, they began asking me for tips and reviews of their itineraries.
I realized that this was something others may benefit from. So…..I am excited to share that beginning in summer 2024, I am providing travel consultations to anyone who may be going to Poland, and unsure whether their itinerary makes sense, or is what they are looking to do.
The consults range from 30 minutes to 2 hours, so if you’re interested in having a Poland expert look over your ideas and itinerary with you and provide insider tips and information you won’t find anywhere else, please take a look at this page for more information.
If you’ve been dreaming of Poland travel, but aren’t ready for a consult, no worries!
We also have a FREE Poland Travel Facebook group where we have a community of Poland travelers and locals ready to help answer questions. Either way, you’re in the right place.
WHEREVER YOU GO BECOMES A PART OF YOU SOMEHOW
ANITA DESAI
Through this site I dispel Poland travel misinformation. I provide travelers with accurate info — from someone who actually has actually lived in and travels Poland often.
In short, I help travelers just like you visit Poland safely and confidently, so you have the trip of a lifetime. If you’ve been dreaming of Poland travel, and are finally ready to plan that trip I hope you can benefit from this site, the FREE Facebook travel group or my consultations.
I’m excited to share my love and knowledge of Poland. If you have any questions, please email me at travelsinpoland@gmail.com!
