Why is Lublin so special? Why is so hard to leave this city? Read this article and find out.

It is the end of the academic year and students are going back home.

Although there is nothing compared to one’s home where memories have dug deep inside. Yet, when you migrate outside the comfort zone, you will discover new horizons, which beautifies that journey back home.

• Lublin for me is a tender mother: she was happy when I was, and held me when I needed!
• Roaming safe, silky splendid streets of Lublin hindered haunts, hid horror: hived humble!
• Tough and tender;

 Fierce when fender;

 Calm yet cuter;

 Swift with Swindler;

 Love to lender;

 Mind and mender;

 Seat to stranger;

 Friend for foreigner!

• Lublin is a cute curse: I pilgrimage to her every Summer!
• Those Lubliners, they have no idea how beautiful they are!!

These are some of the students’ reactions when asked about their feelings towards Lublin; I paraphrased a bit 🙂

If you passed in the Old Town at least once, if you drank from the water of the famous goat, if you ever played in the snow in Lublin, don’t worry! The Proud Pretty Pride has taken her share of you: just look inside, she is there!
