When Emili boarded her flight home from Warsaw, she had no idea the pilot would be Marta Zawartko—the very same trailblazing LOT captain who inspired our cohort just days before.

Connections made at Heritage Polonia don’t fade—they fly with you. ✈️ #HeritagePolonia #LOT

We arrived in Kraków late at night and had the chance to explore the city on our own. No plans, just time to take it all in—historic streets, local energy, and a first glimpse of the culture we came here to connect with.

Come and experience Kraków with us: Wawel Castle’s storied halls, a golden-hour Vistula cruise, and a decadent dinner at Szara Gęś—where tradition meets modern Polish cuisine. A perfect start to our journey. 🇵🇱 #HeritagePolonia #KrakowChronicles #PolishPride

One rainy Sunday in Kraków, a group of HP Cohort attended an optional Mass at historic Skałka—where Saint Stanislaus was martyred in 1079. The priest told us: “It’s a good sign for our future to see so many young people here.”

Connecting the next generation with their roots.🇵🇱
