yes I have to agree with you on that one. Things will tighten up here credit wise when the wave of economic downturn does finally reach here although it will be less powerful than in western europe the banks will still raise the interbanking credit rates. the commercials that are funny in the us are the loan consolidation ones. where people are in debt from like 5 credit cards and dont even know how much they owe! sad but true

Study / Student experiences with housing/finances in Wroclaw [11]

hmm i dont know about single dorm rooms you should ask polish people to be sure good luck

Study / Student experiences with housing/finances in Wroclaw [11]

apparently there is alot of exploitive speculative housing practices here. Foreign companies from portugal for instance bought up alot of flats in warsaw. dormitories are cheap however 400zl or so per month untilities included. as well timing is important. at this time students are scrambling for housing so the old law of supply and demand comes in to the picture. best time is june july. its took me 2 months. you probably will have to pay a fee but dont pay ahead of time only when you sign the contract and 50% is pretty standard fee

USA, Canada / What can I expect in Poland compared to the United States? [48]


what do u miss that great wonder bread? I love the bread in poland fresh and cheap dark bread


I disagree completely the vegetables are fresh if u go to the fresh market excepting winter time and the taste is substantially better than in the us and they dont have gmo here. organic/non sprayed stuff is the same price as normal


guess it depends on where u live and ur lifestyle. its half the price for me

another difference is u r less likely to get shot in poland

Food / Vegetarian food in Poland? [83]


very true and quite tasty as well. I am also vegetarian. My favorite is vega at kino femina. I give polish people a lot of credit. although they may not be vegetarian they still are happy to go eat at a veg restaurant. I know a few vegetarians who were not able to be veg until they left their home due to their mothers forcing them to eat meat. I even know one girl whose mother would mix meat in with her veg food...
