Life / Polish Youth - are they violent? [71]

Don't want to burst your bubble G but it's you who looks like the redneck. I mean geez, you're from some little provincial city that few have ever heard of. What do you really know about life in the 'big wide world'?

Law / Some questions about running a Hostel in Krakow [28]

Dream all you want. It's important to have dreams :)

Moneywise I would suggest looking at rental values for the type of property you think suitable and then workout what that is going to cost you to cover at least 2 high seasons rent - 18 months minimum plus bills etc is not a bad figure to start with. Then look at renovation costs, fixtures and fittings, staff costs, marketing etc etc etc the list goes on and will add up to a sizable figure.

Not sure this is the best dream to follow unless you know exactly what you are doing and have a very healthy bank balance.

There are opportunities in the accommodation market in much of Poland but I don't believe a hostel in Krakow is one of them. Good luck in your ventures but don't throw your money away.

PS I ran a boutique hostel in Sopot last summer so have at least a vague idea what I'm talking about

If you treat people with respect in this country, 70% of the time it'll be seen as weakness and they'll try to walk all over you.

And what lesson can we learn from this?

Life / Polish Integration with other Nationalities [150]

Well I'm a white guy and have dated black and Asian girls over the years. No kids. But are you suggesting that all mixed race kids have black fathers and white mothers?

Life / Polish Integration with other Nationalities [150]

I know of no black girls who have ever dated or would even consider dating a white guy, I have never seen a black girl with a mixed race baby

???????

Where on earth do you live, Shell?

Absolutely. But the point of taking huge numbers of immigrants is that you have someone else to blame for the sorry state of your country. The Polish have to take responsibility for it themselves ;)

UK, Ireland / polish pilots nearly crash plane in britain [13]

HOW MANY BRITS PILOTS HAVE CRASHED OVER THE YEARS? YEAH, I THOUGHT SO.

Obviously because the person giving them instructions couldn't speak English ;)

Study / sopot language school [6]

I had my own place to stay. There are flats available for tourists from about 150 zl a night. Gumtree is not a bad place to look but be aware that if it says something like 1 room flat 40zl a night it's actually 40 zl per person and they would be expecting 5 people to share a room. It's summer season, prices are going up.

Study / sopot language school [6]

I did a 2 week course there some time ago. Nice atmosphere but wasn't overly impressed with the method of teaching. There were only 2 people in the class so I really expected to make progress and have the course tailored to our needs but it wasn't really which was disappointing. They can help you find somewhere to stay but you are leaving it late.
