Happy birthday Natalia Hiszpańska (born on 16th April 1904, died on 14th February 1944)…. Natalia Hiszpańska was born in Warsaw, Poland.
She became involved in scouting while in high school and later became a scoutmaster and commander of the 3rd Women's Troop in Warsaw. After leaving school she studied architecture at the Warsaw University of Technology.
Hiszpańska took part in the defence of Warsaw in September 1939 and joined the Polish resistance after the Nazi-Soviet occupation of Poland, working mainly as an intelligence agent. In 1943 she was promoted to the rank of second lieutenant and awarded the Cross of Valour ("Krzyż Walecznych") for her resistance activities. On 8th May 1943, Hiszpańska was arrested by the Gestapo and detained in the Pawiak prison. Despite being subjected to months of brutal interrogation and torture, she didn't give up any information to the Germans.
On 24th August 1943, Hiszpańska was deported to Auschwitz and registered in the camp as prisoner number 55813. She immediately joined the camp's resistance movement. However, weakened by her ordeal at the hands of the Gestapo and exhausted by the backbreaking work she was forced to do at Auschwitz, her health quickly deteriorated and she died in the camp hospital on 14th February 1944.
She has a symbolic grave in Warsaw's Powązki Cemetery.

ACTIVITY, 09.11.2022
I also went biking, I did not turn my tracking application on but I assume the bike ride lasted about 1 hour. First I just rode around the area I live, however, got bored of that quite fast and therefore decided to bike further away. I ended up near the Powązki Cemetery at which point I turned around and made my way back home, also stopping at the POLIN square for a while. The night was not very cold, especially considering the heat generated through exercise. There were very few people and cars in my way so I got to take up entire roads when in smaller alleys. If I were to go biking again, I would probably consider picking a destination instead of just going straight ahead, that way I could maybe use my bike as a vessel to actually get to places and complete tasks.
Unfortunately, the only evidence I recorded is a very shaky and grainy video of me riding a bike.

hey! you live in poland right? im thinking of visiting warsaw in october, any recommendations of things to do while im there?
ohhhh i am honored to have gotten this ask let's see
Warsaw Old Town - I've been there countless times and it still amazes me with how beautiful it is and the vibe and all... if you're into museums, there's the Royal Castle, Museum of Warsaw (on the main square), and the Museum of Toys and Dollhouses, as well as the cathedral
you asked the gothest mf on this side of the Vistula so I'm going to recommend seeing the Powązki Cemetery, it's old and big and in october you're gonna have the additional halloween vibe. that or the Jewish Cemetery right next to it though I sadly haven't been there specifically
if you wanna see like the Fancy Trendy Places then that's the Chmielna and Nowy Świat streets, there's like restaurants and shit there. a rly good bubble tea place that the Youths go to (Pij Herbatę). a pączki place. vietnamese bars. yknow the drill
more museums: National Museum, National Museum of Etnography, Museum of Asia and the Pacific, but here you are probably gonna find more recs on some site like Atlas Obscura bc. yeah. it's specifically for tourists
more random places: Park Saski, Łazienki Królewskie, Iluzjon Cinema (they play old and/or niche movies, check if there's anything in a language you understand that interests you), Worek Kości (Bag of Bones) cocktail bar (they have exactly the vibe you'd expect from that name), Wilanów Palace, the botanical garden in Powsin (right next to Warsaw and Wilanów specifically), Kampinos National Park (on the other side of Warsaw)
that's all that came to my mind for now but I'm almost sure something will pop in there in like three hours or maybe three days so stay tuned
