From My Delightful Polish Correspondent

Heidelberg--it is a amazing place in the World. The city lays in deep valley and in the middle, between this hills overall--there is so beautiful river--Necker. The Old City is also imposing with it's architectural style. It's the typical style of south Germany. Houses are not too big, there are many of complicate streets, alleys. The view from the hills is very rare--the roofs, chimneys, the towers and facades gives you very convoluted picture in which you find the voice of the ages, hundreds of ages ... In the city, overall there is a specific atmosphere, the people say--"the soul of the place." It is something like Krakow. You know what does it mean after our living in the Dominican Monastery.
