Life / The people of Poland are wonderful!!! [26]

Wonderful! I like this story.

I've been friends with a Polish girl for two months now she is such a credit to this country where she now resides. The first time we arranged to meet up (this was arranged through a mutual friend) she gave me such a warm hug, a kiss on the cheek and a small gift (a book all about Poland). I was astonished. Sometimes we can take kindness for granted and I definitely have. Sometimes in this country, meeting someone for the first time, I doubt many of us would go to the extreme like my friend did. I have met other Polish people too and have been greeted so kindly by them, it just makes me want to run off to Poland. :)

I felt exactly the same! Such a sterotype sadly. But it did make interesting viewing if nothing else.

Travel / Krakow going down the toilet! [184]

I'm really shocked about Kraków! I have never been to Poland and was planning to visit Kraków with my fiance however, i'm starting to wonder now if this is such a good idea! I've spoken to a guy in my Polish class who doesn't recommend Warsaw so i'm at a loss as what part(s) of Poland to explore first!

News / Dealing with constant insults against Polish [323]

I can honestly say that if i've ever heard anyone disrespect Polish people, i've always defended them and I love the fact we have many Polish people over in the UK. I've always found Poles polite and respectful and goodness, we can use a little more of that in our country sometimes. :)
