Work / How to get and survive an internship in Poland [5]
You don't need a visa (at least I don't) to be in Poland. SG isn't coming into my workplace, demanding that I hand over my passport. As far as they know, I'm just a tourist, which is fine. (Because of the Schengen they don't even know when I came into Poland, just when I came into the EU.)

Love / Girl just interested, or a hooker? [30]
I was standing at the bus stop, minding my business, when this lady walks up and then starts walking all sexy like, like she's trying to attract my attention.
So I kind of ignore it, there are not any other guys at the bus stop. She goes to the other side, I turn around and she starts like making sort of sexy gestures about herself (kind of like making poses and stuff.) My bus came and I got on it, leaving a pouting girl there by herself.
I think she was a hooker. Was she?

Love / What is your opinion on the Polish Ladies in Krakow? [82]
Krakow has the best girls in Poland (a lot better than in Warsaw.)

Work / How to get and survive an internship in Poland [5]
Applying for an internship can be tricky, especially since you need to get a visa (but not always.)
Experience and opportunity is better than money.
First off, if you're just there for the summer, skip the the visa. A tourist visa is good enough for 90 days. Even the 90-day limit is kind of worthless if you come into Poland from another EU country in the Schengen Agreement.
A visa requires health insurance, proof of X-amount of money per month, (the biggest obstacles) and an invitation from the employer. I say forgo the visa and simply work under the radar (it's not too hard.)
Find a company or school (whatever) and imply that you can work for free. You might not get paid, but they'll use you and give you tons of experience (just because they can, and because it costs them nothing.) Use your position to get money on the side by offering English lessons to your colleagues and their colleagues. If you're good, they'll spread the word around.
The dorms here are pretty cheap, around 400zl a month. They're fairly nice, and have tons of young people in them.
Find and date a Polish girl.
They're beautiful, and most have a place where you can stay (even if it's her family's place.)
