Private Kraków : Photographic Journey Through Time + A Special Recipe

It was great to hear from Polish friends Paula, Michalina, Tomek and Sabina this week!

They shared with me, and now I want to share with you a new artistic tour they’ve created which they were talking about when we cooked pierogi together. This is now becoming a reality!

“This tour connects learning and making pinhole analogue photography together with walks in the town, hearing amazing local stories and getting the most beautiful spots to keep it as postcards and also have an interesting portrait in the Kraków sights. We also go into the dark room and develop the pictures together so that everybody has an amazing souvenir to take home from the trip. We created this tour with Urban Adventures very recently but the photographic group Polish Obscura and the whole project is already lasting for few years. We make together a lot of workshops and events. If you wish to see some of the work we did, have a look at our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/polishobscura/

The details and photo gallery of a tour is on our Urban Adventure site here:

If you’re travelling to Poland this is a unique way to experience local life in Kraków, the most artistic of Polish cities - become an artist for a day. Join their passionate photographer and guides, who are founders of the artistic group called Polish Obscura, and travel back in time to capture historic Krakow as they would have done in the late 19th century, with a handmade camera.

On a separate note they also shared with me (as promised) a recipe for Lavender Liqeur

Lavender Licqeur :

LIST OF INGREDIENTS :

7 big spoons of dry lavender
3 big lemons
1 big orange
4 cloves
1 litre of 40% vodka
400g of natural honey

HOW TO MAKE IT :

Put dried flowers of lavender into a big glass jar. Add lemons and oranges (with or without skin, I did it without). Add cloves and all the vodka. Put the jar into a dark place and let it stay like this for two weeks. Once in few days shake the jar. After two weeks add honey and let it stay for another week. After this week filter the liquor - it is ready!
