We are about to set out on an unusual journey, a journey that guides you to the deeper meaning of being, a journey of reflection and suggestion.
We begin the journey by lowering ourselves into the Wieliczka Mine, one of the oldest and best-kept salt mines in the world. Works of art made entirely of salt, ponds and mining tools of inestimable value. On this trip we will learn many little facts about Poland, its people and their traditions. We conclude this short itinerary by walking on roads that have made European history. They do not tell a beautiful story, but they certainly tell one that you need to know so that you have an awareness of what has been and what must never be again.
It will be an intense weekend that will be forever etched in your heart and mind! Are you ready?

A journey through time and history: Auschwitz-birkenau
I would like to tell you that this will be a great day but I would be lying.
This will be a necessary day to be aware, to know, to learn from our past and to prevent it from happening again.
The pain experienced can be felt. It is always cold in this place. It is a difficult place, full of suffering and stolen dreams, full of stories with sad endings and darkness.
However, how can one shine again if one does not know the weight of the past and the mistakes made?
So that it never happens again, let us discover this place together.
