Today we welcome Iwona Blecharczyk back on the BVL Podcast. Iwona is not only a female truck driver and trucking entrepreneur from Poland. She’s also a social media star with millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

We published our first episode (#171) with Iwona at the end of June, where we talked about her backstory and took a look at her fascinating life journey that started in a small village on the Polish-Ukrainian border and took her to the endless highways of Texas, the treacherous ice roads of Canada and to the biggest cities all across Europe.

For this episode our host Boris Felgendreher met up with Iwona at a truck stop in Northern Germany. We brought a film crew along to record a video of this podcast. Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JfWQQhOqqw

In today’s conversation, Iwona talked about what it’s really like to be a truck driver in Europe. The good, the bad and the ugly parts of the job. Iwona has seen it all and she doesn’t mind to share it with us.

Please enjoy!
