I'm living in London but im from
warsaw i want to go back. Ive got

nerominded and primitive but i
prefered to be primitive and i
dont want to have situation in my
country like you british got in
england--all england is full of
emigrants.
From a youtube comment to this
tune about Warszawa
Mural in the coolest corner of indie Warszawa... We turn the ugliest bits of our past into something approaching pretty…
|
At the height of every summer, Warszawa is hit by the maddest storms… almost every night, this kind of doom beckons… and she shrugs it off, year in, millennium out
|
A beach bar on the poor, wild, eastern bank of the river…
A crumbling statue
of Christ praying
over a crumbling
Fiat 126, BMW 316
and a Zuk van…
A bar just off Chmielna Street, the second poshest
street in Warszawa… Looks like a nuclear bunker, smells
of piss, but after a few frozen vodkas feels like home
The Old Town… twice rebuilt since WWII, therefore younger than me
|
Rozycki Market,
in the most
dangerous part of
Warszawa, sells mainly
wedding fashions...
now I get the security
I lived in this pre-war block a few years back… I left, my dreams stayed well put
|
Murals outside the Philosopher’s Kitchen
|
I took some magic
mushrooms at a wedding
once… riding home in a
cab, I swear I saw this
bloody great giant
statue wave to me
In Jutrzenka Skate Park Mrs Maria will cook you a meal you will never forget… the best pierogi in town, the best cucumber soup in the history of mankind
|
A Praga milk bar… just like my momma made it… and just like my momma, the serving ladies dealt plenty of racist abuse to minority customers (in this case, Roma Gypsies)
|
The building which
houses the Warszawa
Chopin Rooms. Also
home to the Fine
Arts Academy… Would
Frederick have
approved?
River tram crossing the Vistula…
|
Koneser Vodka Factory in Praga… home to various alternative art galleries…
bring on post-modernism
|
The “official” Vietnamese Cultural Centre, Warszawa’s Praga district…
|
A Tibetan gallery in the Old Town… place full of magic
|
Only Poles could put the
Moroccan embassy in a
historic building with a
statue of Mary Magdalene
wedged in a glass-covered
alcove over the door…
I keep thinking of buying a proper camera, but if my phone
takes pictures like this of the worst tenements in town…
Graffiti outside the French Institute section of Warsaw University… oh, the wit
|
Alleyway in New World Street, the poshest bit
of Warszawa… forget that, we’re just 50 metres
from heaven
