Aesthetics is the biggest pain in Polish cities
Billboards, containers and litter are everywhere, less green, no parking space, building block on block – this is how a typical Polish city was presented in the meme. How much truth is in that?
to me Jacob jazz too much, because We do not respect the space that we have to develop:
