Why??
Title: Re: What's it like in Poland?
Post by: booty on October 08, 2012, 11:38:29 PM
Why??
Because you are travelling and it's always an adventure to go somewhere totally different and experience different things/foods etc.

I was born there and haven't been back since 1994.

It's just like any "typical westernized" country with all conveniences and amenities you'd expect to find stateside.

Basically a rule to remember is that a great majority are distrusting and hesitant of strangers, sort of a defense mechanism. You might sense people come off as "cold".

But being American, especially from California you will be treated better almost held in a lime light.
Few Americans I know were there 2 years ago and they told me that they were treated very well.

The bigotry is strong in Poland. You could make some new friends  ;D
Title: Re: What's it like in Poland?
Post by: BB on October 09, 2012, 12:01:43 AM
Yeah, in all seriousness, friends that have been there have mentioned that it is probably closest to the Mid-west in feel. It has a religious and conservative bend to it that tends to soften with the younger people. You might like it a lot, for many years they were one of the biggest backers of Reagan style politics in Europe.

Bigotry is strong in all of Europe. It's an all white continent that just recently has fallen victim to multiculturalism.

A lot of racism there, white power skinheads and all. Don't you have a Mexican last name? May be better not to use it in public  :P

Where exactly are you going? I know Krakow is notorious for foreigners being beaten up in public.

The Polish were apparently awesome during the World Cup hosting. Decent people but can come off as cold, it's just the way they are but if you get to know them they're awesome. The women are ridiculous.

Where in Poland exactly? Warsaw is no different from any western city, all the way fucked up and ugly as fuark. Wroclaw, Krakow, Gdansk - different story.

I have no idea where is this "Polish seem cold" comming from. I always try to help tourist best I can and nowadays vast majority of people here can speak decent English. Last time some American old lady with Tennessee accent asked me if I'm British, lol.

What do you do for work there if I may ask? Where are you from originally? Was it a bitch fitting in?

I maintain to this day that southern Poland is that most beautiful part of this world I've ever been to, and I've been on every major continent. I'd drive there and be envious of people living there. What I would give to be able to live there and speak the language. It's so beautiful I could move there tomorrow if I had the chance.

i teach english via private lessons, and i come from the u s of a

polish culture is pretty stange for us americans, especially this staring thing, and i just can't imagine some black dude form da hood living here, as he'd get in a fight every other day "wot you looking at? punkass!" lol

i get on ok here, coz i'm a pretty adaptable fella and i can kinda just blend into the surroundings 8)

I'm English born but so far from a stereotype as you can get. See myself as a world citizen first, then European, then British, then English. Sadly, I'm all too well aware of how we're perceived and sometimes consciously make a point of it when meeting foreign people to show that we're not all skinhead, tattooed thugs. I find Americans living abroad or here do the same thing. They're quick to show you that they're not all well ..... Coach.  :P

Very cool for an American to be living in Poland. 98% of all my friends are people that live or have lived abroad, or are FROM abroad. I find them to be far more dynamic, interesting and world experienced than David and Elizabeth Smith from Merton that has never been outside the M25 with apart from the yearly piss up in Magaluf.

Again. I'd love to live in Southern Poland man. Looks great there. We always go skiing in the Tatras Mountains in northern Slovakia every year and always rent a car and go drive through Poland. Awesome place.
