Life / Wroclaw has too much Graffiti [8]

Unfortunately, all big European cities are like this, you should see the ones in Germany :-O

Anyway, the ones in Poland are quite comparable with France, Italy, Greece, and others I have been to. Owell, hopefully the government will do something about it. I have been to Wroclaw (they have my favorite statue of Chopin there ^_^), it's quite a beautiful city to be ruined by such.

Real Estate / Foreigners: Please don't buy Polish Land! [823]

It's okay, as a foreigner I rent ^_^.

Life / Thunderstorms in Poland [44]

I know right! I'm a thunderstorm lover, and especially out in the villages and rural areas of Poland where I have been the sky literally turns dark as black and you can feel the winds creeping up on you, and then that morbid silence and then BOOM mother nature strikes with hard rain and lightening. I love thunderstorms and when I was in Poland they were the best!

Here are some pics taken in Poland, some of them are mine :-D.











My absolute favorite:

News / JEW YOUTH SHOULD CLEAN UP THEIR ACT IN POLAND [420]

Let them be, it's sad enough that there's only 4,000 left out of the millions prior to Hitlers demonic reign.

UK, Ireland / Another girl from Poland murdered in uk [63]

She got that rich selling tomatoes to McDonald's?!?!?! lol.

News / Why Polish police officers have to look like dorks....? [43]

There's nothing wrong with the way the police look, now as far as the people they arrest....LOL!

News / Does Poland count in Europe or is it ignored? [428]

I count it! Great beautiful country, nice well brought up cultured people, history rich, oh and did I mention the great culture. They have everything it means to be European!

Study / Study ROCK MUSIC in Poland [10]

Oh no what have you done! Dear Chopin is rolling over in his grave! :-O

:-p

Life / Would I be accepted as a Pole (being half-Greek, half-Polish)? [16]


I admit, that this is the first time I am actually going to Poland to stay for a long period of time unlike those short vacations in the past. But I embrace my European culture, I'm not one of thos "americanized" fellows. I speak Polish from my mother, it was taught to me as a first language along with Greek and then I mastered English when I began going to school as a youngster. My Polish is good, but for a commoner, not for an educated Pole that would be able to tell complex words and rich language in Polish. This is because I have done all of my advanced education in English, and only speak Polish with the family and some Polish friends in the neighborhood and school. I'm in Chicago btw.

Study / United States Education vs. Polish Education [19]


You mean Jan Madey, Coach
Filip Wolski, Contestant
Marcin Pilipczuk, Contestant
Marek Cygan, Contestant
Krzysztof Diks, Co-Coach the only people who competed are the best at IT? Yes, Warsaw University is known for IT work, but I would rather regard the students than these PhD's professors who competed.

And yes, it takes 7 - 9 years to complete a PhD in Poland for the total amount of time. But why does this come as a surprise to you? It's the same in Italy, Greece, France, Germany, Sweden, England, and in many areas in the US. I'm sure it's the same in many other areas too.

Love / In your opinion, are most Polish women 'Easy'? [243]

There are girls with meaning and girls whom are sluts in every country. But I have to say Polish girls fall without doubt fall mostly into category A. Most of them are well brought up with good morals and ethics, they are smart and well mannered, family-valued, and they know the "meaning" of love, unlike some English girls that find it on their backs on bed or bent over. No offense, but the generalization stands that Polish girls are not "easy".

Life / IKEA in Warsaw [30]


lol, IKEA is cheap, people don't go there for sightseeing. That doesn't mean it's cheap quality, I love IKEA and depending on how much money you invest depends on the quality you get. The cheap stuff is usually made in China from cheap materials and the expensive stuff is usually made in Scandinavia with expensive materials.

Life / 5 cool things about being Polish dude/dudess? [39]

(5 Points on each since I don't have much time to type this)

Polish women:
1. Beautiful
2. Smart and open-minded
3. Very moral and ethical
4. Respect happiness, prospering, meaning of life and well-being for what it is and don't need to be materialized to dillusioned like some women.
5. Very nice and kind.

Polish men:
1. Hard working
2. Good manners and very nice and kind.
3. Many are smart and open-minded as well.
4. Are true family men that can respect and don't have many of the western values.
5. Know when to separate partying and having fun from responsibility in life, career, and family.

Love / My Polish guy won't tell me his feelings about me - is it usual? [15]


I'm sorry but I doubt that, seeing as how our Greece has one of the highest tourist rates in Europe and with various nationalities coming in with work and study visa's. We are very tolerant and nice to anyone. There mean and nice people wherever you go, just because you probably ran into an ******* whom was having a bad day in Greece (like I have many times) it doesn't mean all are. Also please regard the 80,000+ Poles living in Greece today. ^_^

News / Japanese red maples in Poland [15]

Yea Randal, Chicago climate is very similar to Polish. However I did take this botany class claiming that soils are different, winds, nutrients, microorganisms in the dirt, ecosystem for botanic animals. Owell. In Japan though, they're climate is immensely different. The springs are warm as are the autumns, the summer has a heavy rain/storm portion to it within the spring as well. And the winters snow a lot but aren't miserably cold.

News / Poland growth rate [34]

I use the U.N. Much more accurate, they update their stuff every year, CIA can become outdated for some sources.

Life / A Brit living in Poland (update) [14]

Yes when in Rome, do as the Romans do. However I live in poland for over a year and travelled around the country. I absolutley loved it, never found any problems. However I like confronting the new and adapting. ^_^

News / Poland growth rate [34]

According to the U.N. statistics the Polish population isn't decreasing or increasing. I think this is perfect. Poland's popualtion seems to be at a good rate now. Besides Poland has few mortalities in birth. With good hospitals (compared to other places), good birth ethics (common for one, two or mostly three children, and not more like in other areas), and more responsiblities with sex (they don't tend to have as many accidents).

News / Japanese red maples in Poland [15]

I can tell you for one that it's near impossible to grow those beautiful Japanese Cherry Blossoms in Poland; or for that matter anywhere in Europe. :-(

Work / My daughter goes to study in Poland [13]

Poland has some of the greatest Universities in Europe, and yes having spent some time there as a student studying it is indeed addictive for a young mind and a great place to study. It definitely beats my university here that's in a crowded city.

Life / 800 thousand Polish women are victims of domestic abuse yearly [180]

Depends on what "Domestic Abuse" really is. I really feel for these women, however in some places women lie about this to get revenge or target their husbands. Also many might report it for a single slap as compared to a full beating. (Both fully wrong, however that might be the reason the number is so high). This is true not only in Poland but in many places.

News / Poles are coming home [35]


aahhahahahahahah true.

News / World's Next Great Cities - Forbes. Warsaw 8. [22]

Forbes sucks! Notice how they rank Chile and Mexico city higher, and even some industrial Chinese town. I've been to Mexico City :-(, trust me, Warsaw is a 1000x times better.

News / Poland has the highest shopping IQ [46]

Um, is impulsive buying a good thing? Doesn't that just amount to materialism and a mount of debt? Not any of the poles I know.....

News / The most useless things in Poland [140]

Hmmmm.....I can't think of anything......oh...wait.......THE BLOODY POSTAL SYSTEM THAT RETURNS 75% OF MY MAIL I SEND!!!!!

News / I love Poland because... (in 10 words or less) [182]

I love Poland because my idol and hero Fryderyk Chopin is from there!

Love / Is sex with Polish guys different to sex with English guys? [173]

Idk, I've seen some pretty ulgy guys, and their ethnicity varied (yes even Polish)

Love / Is sex with Polish guys different to sex with English guys? [173]

Gah, sexual/racial stereotypes. Gotta love them until it comes down to true reasoning, logic, and scientific fact- then their non-existent. Not that I have anything against men of either race.

Love / How Many Dates Before Sex in Poland? [86]

Great, lets use one Polish woman to stereotype the 19.5 million! From all I know all the Polish women I have seen are very conserved. In other words, they have high ethics, morals, self-respect, manners, intelligence, and are very nice. They also give something very rare - true love - not the slutty love your bragging about. Now I know country is irrelevant, but this is my personal experience.
