Life / Banks in Poland - Any good recommendations [30]

I do not like or trust banks. Every bank always rolls out the red carpet when you give them money, but good luck getting your money when you want to use it! I think they intentionally stall to make more money off yours. I closed an account in a day and it took almost 2 weeks for the cash? Thank you for the banking information in Poland. Other people's experiences really expose a banks reputation.

Love / Do Polish Women with Blonde hair look more beautiful than with dark hair? [25]

My Polish husband definately prefers my blonde hair. I'm naturally, a medium blonde not the bleached platinum. He actually notices hair. He noticed someone that was blonde went dark and he said it looked terrible. He said never surprise me by going dark. Plus, it wouldn't look natural. I also, don't want to go lighter.

Travel / Traveling to Koszalin? [13]

Thanks for the additional information on trains and scheduling and for addressing safety concerns. I found that Polish men especially, are very protective of the women in their lives? I don't mean to stereotype, only from experience. They like to keep a close eye on others intentions.

Love / Where did you meet your Polish other half? [33]

At the Polish Home at a dance. Love at first sight. Went with my Polish friend and she of course new him. The whole Polish community by the next day knew that he had met an American. He called the next day @ 10am and had a date that night. Happily married and have two beautiful children. Must be the Polish/American genes...Smart too!

Thank you for that extensive train information! I want to simplify travelling as much as possible due to the children. My husband thinks the train is a bad idea. He insists Tata will come pick me up. He seems to think it wouldn't be safe? Information you gave is great-thanks. I will keep this information as an option?

Travel / Traveling to Koszalin? [13]

I think a family member will pick me up in Gdansk. Probably, my father in-law. That's how he travelled when he visited us. Otherwise, will need to move to plan B. I'm independent, I wouldn't want to impose. If I did do it on my own, any suggestions?

Yes. I will probably fly to Coppenhagen then to Gdansk (his brother,wife@kids live there), from there drive to Koszalin.

Thank you for the travel options and Spa information. I hadn't thought of those options? Good advice! I will explore all travel routes. I will get there!

Travel / Traveling to Koszalin? [13]

I want my children 9@6 to go to Koszalin this summer. I have a chronic pain condition @ travelling will be very difficult. Supposedly, my doctor thinks a pain patch will get me there and back? The doctor thinks I should have treatments in Poland. In Poland ,it wouldn't be appropriate to take care of my health? I should be taking care of the kids and visting with family. My Polish is little. My father in-law has spent two summer's in America. We both speak little of either language, but love and adore each other. Somehow, we communicate. What are some thoughts to language, culture, and special care- massages...? Most importantly, travelling there. My husband can't go because we have our own business and new real estate investment (plus, the economy has affected our business.
