Life / Belgian moving to Krakow, need practical info [38]

to pay polish taxes for having a car in Poland. If he doesn't, of course he can still use it paying Belgium taxes, but he is only supposed to be in that situation for 6 months. How do they measure this time? I don't think they can, but that's what the law says.

- It's not that you need to, but you should.
- 6 months
- From the very first day that you drive with green plates from Belgium. Or if you wait to be in Poland to formalize it, do it when your insurance is over to renew it all (plates and get a polish insurance). Remember that if your belgium insurance finds out that you have moved permantly, they may not cover you as that's out of their scope.

Life / Electrical heating vs central heating in Poland [9]


You are probably right, I somehow thought that this hot water was warmed with gas in some central, maybe is nonsense, but well I mean that system of pipes that you mention.

Life / Should I take my motorbikes to Poland? [14]


haha, that's a funny way to describe your own relation with the Harley world! I myself am not an italian fanatic... but I do salute Ducatis with an L rather than a V ;)

Did you own a 996? wow, I do love that bike, that's totally cult. That one and the yellow 748 are my fav bikes ever.

I don't race... I tried twice but I took too much risk in both occasions and no fun. This monster has been my first big bike, I bought it 4 years ago now and the first day I was the proudest girl in the whole world! Even when I could hardly park it or manage any basic movement but infinite lines haha, at least I could clean it! Now I use it everyday to go work, and weekends to tour around here, well you know what biking is about ;) biker party in Poland? Wicked, count with me!


Your bike is almost my age! :-O
I have read that it is quite difficult to register vehicles in Poland, but not because this particular thing but because all burocracy stuff that you may need to do here seems to get so complicated. Maybe other person who has already gone through it can let us know better.

From my side I have to go the local traffic place here and get some green plates, then I can drive to Poland and have a 60 days place to register it.

I love Harleys... even when Harley-drivers do not salute other bikes but Harleys :P hehe. Which one is yours, a sporter or what?
Your answer is helpful, and it seems that I will leave her here untill the spring :( I will feel really weird but I am worried as I dont have a right garage for her yet and no way she is waiting in the streets.

When do you tipically start riding again? maybe in March or so? That would be 6 months :S too bad!

Real Estate / how should I understand this rent condition? [7]

naw... construction works always take more time than planned, and maybe when they are done the house will look so much pretty and they will double me the cena haha!

let's look for other thing!

Real Estate / how should I understand this rent condition? [7]

you are damnly fast answering.

so like that... this is really weird for me, I'm not a picky person but no way I will share the house with the building staff. It's a pity as I really liked the little dom :(

Txs!

Oh cool!
It is a Ducati Monster, and oldie now... it's from '99, carburators... I've tunned it up a lot, but I really doubt it will turn on in -15ºC, no way! But there are still some weeks till we reach those temperatures so I have to see. I really don't know what to do!

Winter tyres? I thought those were only made for cars not bikes, you really got me there. Never heard about those dual-batteries for the cars, I'm really trying to find out whether the flat I'm trying to rent includes a garage or not (it's not clear yet as they just say "parking place"), otherwise I think my car or bike will never turn on.

Good excuse not to go to work ;)

Lukas,
your experience in Finland is totally crazy... well, I already have heat in the bike handfuls, and in winter I always get blue fingers anyway... I cannot imagine how I would freeze with those temperatures, no way at all. I really doubt my bike would respond in such low temperatures, both of us seem to be weak for the cold!! shame on us!

Life / Dogs in Poland - why do we keep them? [28]

Well, I'm moving to Poland with my doggies. Btw the problem about finding some place that allows dogs is the same than in Madrid, but I think I finally got it.

It's our responsability (owners) to keep streets clean... I always do that and I will be very surprised if some kids insult me for doing that? no sense...
