Real Estate / How do I look for property in the Sopot area? [45]

you have 2 choices with sourcing property in the TC area

1. get an agent to do it for you and pay their fee

2. buy a copy of annonse and make some phone calls and dont pay an agent fee

buying land is nigh on impossible for a US citizen and there is very little available in sopot

if sopot proves too expensive - and you will be looking at 1O K upwards er square metre for a second market and probably 15 K upwards for primary - then you could always look just up the road in gdynia orlowo which has a beautiful little bay

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]


if we can agree that common properties is synonimous with characteristics then the results of a MORI poll might answer your question -

The MORI report found a great deal of resistance to the idea – especially among
the British focus groups – that there was any such thing as uniquely “British”
characteristics. Nonetheless, a number of clear characteristics which could
be described as “typically British” emerged fairly consistently from all the groups:

• humour;
• politeness;
• individuality;
• pride;
• tradition/history; and
• reserved/uptight/snobbishness.

These lead us to the criteria for assessing Great Britons.

Characteristics of Great Britons

Reserved

Tradition & modernity

Sense of humour

Strength & determination

People who are perceived to have achieved things despite the odds are regarded as more “typically” British than people who are perceived to have had an easier time of it.

lets just add this as another supposed characteristic
