Thanks, this is exactly what i'm looking for!

Life / Public Transport in Warsaw [33]

I ride the tram every day (and have yet to buy a ticket). Don't see anything wrong with them, nor the buses. Buses are usually punctual but they have an odd habit of coming on time or not coming at all.

Merged: Business Schools in English in Poland

Does anyone know of any schools in Poland offering english language undergraduate studies in Business? I've been looking and cannot seem to find any place that offers a full program in English. By business I mean almost any of the fields of study.

Study / Working versus Studying in Poland [5]

Grzegorz is right, most Universities in Poland will not recognize any partial college work you have completed in the United States. I had a semesters worth of credits from the University of North Carolina, and when I got accepted in Warsaw University they told me those credits are worth nothing.

For starters, you should most certainly make the language a priority. Also, I would assume that if you where to gain some sort of certification, or perhaps an Associates Degree, some of the larger schools would be more apt to take your previous schooling into consideration. Warsaw University, for example, offers undergraduate work such as a BA program (in english) for Philosophy, as well as a Masters program for Psychology. These are organized in the way they are for US schools, so they would be more compatable with your previous US schooling.

They also offer many Graduate programs in english for MA, so if you where to get a BA in the US you may be able to continue on to your MA in Poland. I would suggest calling several of the larger schools and simply asking.

Life / Internet Speeds in Poland [18]

I did some researching on the ISP's in the Warsaw area, and some of them offer up to 15 mb/s. This does get pricey though, but cost is no obstacle for me. I was surprised when I heard that my friend had a 1 mb/s line, since Europe is in general pretty far ahead of the US in terms of the communications field. Seems that he is just paying for the bare minimum that is offered.

Wow, that's terrible.

Travel / The best holiday destination in Poland? [34]

Go to Sopot since you will be in the Tri-City. The public transport is real good between those three cities and during the summer time the clubbing is insane. Mad amounts of people everywhere too.

Work / Culinary-Art's degree, thinking about Moving back to Poland from the US [10]

I'm not 100% on that Polanglik, but I know that it atleast used to be.

Mlip: I do believe to to apply to become a US citizen, there is also some kind of statute:

You have lived in the United States as a lawful permanent resident for at least five years

You have been physically present in the United States for at least half of the last five years

You have lived in the district or state where you are filing your application for at least three months

You have not spent more than a year outside the United States

I think that every day you spend over a year outside of the US, is added on to the total days you have to be in the US.

When you get to Poland, Tran, stop by Warsaw so I can buy you a drink.

If you don't have a green card, you will have to re-apply for a Visa to return to the US (and it may not be granted depending on your current legal situation in the US). If you do have a green card, I believe it is mandatory that you remain out of country for no more than six months at a time.

This means that you have to come back to the US every six months. Can be as little as landing at the airport and going right back. The first time you exceed this maximum leave, they fine you. The second time they revoke your greed card.

News / Poland's Contribution to the E.U. [56]

It's funny how the majority of people that are complaining about no work and no money tend to come off as complete idiots. Seems to me that the talentless bums of Poland make more noise than anyone about how bad it is instead of doing something to change it or help themselves (like working hard).

News / The legal definition of Vodka in EU - Poland not happy [16]

Here in the US I can buy Luksusowa, Chopin, and Belvedere even where I live currently (middle of nowhere). Though I believe the latter two are a bit overpriced and over-hyped, since Luksusowa is my favorite.

To the person who said vodka has no taste: you're about as refined as people who think Bud Light tastes great. Most Vodka drinkers can taste the difference between a Potato and a Grain vodka easily. Hell, since I drink it so often, you can probably pour ten shots of different vodka in front of me and i'll find the Luksu with no prob!

News / EU or America - which country is better to work now? [56]

I currently live in North Carolina, where we have a very large Mexican population. I see both Educated and Non Educated Mexicans working bottom rung jobs, but mostly because there are illegal. Most legal Mexicans I have met are educated and hold pretty decent jobs.

Most of these Mexicans are hard working, and have aspirations for the future. When I was in High School I delivered pizza for a company that had in its employment an illegal Mexican. He was the hardest worker in that place, and I suggested that he buy a car and put some payments down on it to increase his credit. He bought a Firebird and he and his wife worked their tails off for 5 months, sometimes making two payments a month, to get the car payed for. The result was a good enough credit score to merit a house loan.

There are bad apples in this bunch of course, who come here looking for nothing more than an easier way to be lazy bums, since in Mexico this is much harder to pull of than here in the US. This is the case with any nationality though.

Overall I would say that Mexicans are pretty essential to America's economy at present, but they really should strive more to enter the US legally or atleast take some steps to legalize themselves once here.

I would also have to say that in regards to living here in the US, as opposed to living in Poland, I am a prime example. I was born in Poland, but have lived in the US for most of my life. To me, the US is good for two things: Living a pretty comfortable life while doing minimal work, or working very hard to put away money.

The US is the crappiest place I have ever been when it comes to being young. All we have to do here is work, or go to College (usually both). I've lived all over the US, and when it comes to having fun or just in general being entertained, the only place that is even remotely applicable is New York. The clubs here are so god aweful they are not even worth visiting, and American's have absolutely no party sense. Parties here consist of people posing in their most expensive clothing and standing around in tight "klicks" talking to each other. Have fun? No way! Dance? Hah, FAT CHANCE!

Most of my friends here are young Poles who have little education. They came here to make money and come back to Poland. They ended up staying for years. They work 4-5 days a week, just enough to get bye and what do they have? Apartments, cable TV, computers, and playstations. They spend their lives laying on the couch playing video games, since there is nothing to do regardless of where you go. In the beginning we where always trying to organize parties and have fun, but those efforts where are futile and eventually ended all together. Half of them speak of coming back to Poland every other day, but instead resign to the couch and order some pizza. They have become in a sense "Americanized".

I've had more than enough America for a lifetime, so over the last few months my main concern has been putting away money. Now that this is completed, i'll be moving back to Poland in August, and see absolutely no reason to move back in my lifetime.
