Happy New Year from Krakow, Poland!! Szczesliwego nowego Roku!

Before WWII: Plac Zgody. Now: Ghetto Heroes Square. Each chair, a 1,000 lives gone, disappeared, destroyed. Now, the droplets of mist swirling in the night, ghosts whispering this could be you, your children, your friends, your family. All it takes is enough people to believe that you don't belong.

I'm on my fifth John LeCarré novel this month when tonight, I saw this man, in this light, along this river, in Krakow and thought: clandestine night drop

Just left Tirana, Albania. What a cool little gem of a city. Already making plans to return in March

It's 1am. Just arrived in Poland...what a cool ride in from the airport. Oh, and brrrr.
