Life / Minisurvey about living in Tricity (Sopot, Gdynia, Gdansk) [26]

Again... on the begining I tought is not polite to call and ask " Do you recieve my CV?". Most of my polish friend said is the right way to do. LOL!

One more interesting fact ...My manager is not looking really to hire new stuff, but every now and then he post adds online . I guess he collect CV "just in case":) He never bother to reply on emails..ha ha! Frankly, I know the guy hire me only because of my accent, I am like "attraction" at his company. At times I can't stand when our comp. customers ask " Oh, you speak polish so good, could you tell me where are you from" ..geez!!!

Hi Trixity,

congratulations for being "brand new" daddy:)

Just wanted to say one thing from my experience about hunting for a job here in Poland...Somehow sending CV via email wouldn't help a lot. If you find some company where would you like to work, just go there personaly and try to have meeting with the menager. Polish people like personal contact and for them that's mean that you really care to work in their company.

To zoo:

I was surprised to see fisherman on Hudson River just acros Manhattan! LOL! But it wasn't that bad...Passaic River,NJ was the most dirty river I've ever seen!

Have a nice weekend all:)

Yes zoo, you are right. Here everything change fast, and change for good. When I came back from US, I was surprised to see shopping malls, HD TV, etc. etc...But is not everywhere. As I said in my previous post, Tri-city is different. Here you could see that almost everything is improving. Even people here think more positive, probably because they have more opportunity to do career....Anyway, I feel good here:)

Hi all...

We still have a cool weather, however is very windy (LOL) on the beach. I am saying about the beach, because live very close - only 10 min slow walk. Sobieszewo is not interesting at all, just few places where you can have a beer or buy some post cards. I live in Swibno, it's about 5 km east of Sobieszewo. There you could see that something is going on...people build big, modern houses and land prices increased almost 200% since 2006.

Hmm, I didn't note mosquitos this year, probably you were in the wrong place and the wrong time:)

How is going searching for job?

have a nice day, all:)

regards

Hi ...

I live in Sobieszewo Island, only 6 km. from the Old Town,GdaƄsk. Wonderful location, just by the beach...forest,sea...really beautiful place.

I am from Bulgaria, lived in Poland from 1995 to 1998. then moved overseas...thought it was for good. My husband is polish guy and he insist to move back to Poland...so, I am here:) I am not to satisfied with my life here, but the most important thing is that hubby is happy.

I work in tourist business. Like my job, like my coworkers and also place I work. Of course, everywhere are good and bad sides, but as far no particular reason to complain.

I like Tri-city because here people are more open to foreigners. I speak Polish language with a bit accent and see immediately people reaction...they are just curious where I am from but very few ask me this question. Really can't imagine to live in different place in Poland. At times we are going to Warsaw to visit my husband family and frankly...can't wait to be back here.

The only thing I don't like about Tri-city is weather. Here is always windy!!! Most part of year I feel cold, for me is really cold here.I am from warmer country and lived in East Coast,USA...still miss hot, humid weather:(

I have good language skills and Polish language wasn't difficult to learn. However, grammar is no easy at all:) Still need dictionary at times, can't understand diferency between "y" and "i"..

Any questions...let me know:)

Have a nice weekend!
