I used to teach at the IMGW. This is the place where they test the water. The scientists told me do not drink the tap water at all.

Language / difficult English words for Polish speakers? [119]
One of my students assistant came to me the other day and sat down. She said,"I am really boring". I tried not to laugh and explained to her she should say I am really bored. It was cute. Poles have trouble with th words.

Life / muslim community in poland [430]
i agree with you ash you just asked a simple question. as I said there are a number of muslims mainly turkish and pakistani. I assume the mosques are private but I dont know. My advice would be to go to the local kebab place upon arrival and ask there.
