LoneStranger 3 | 382 15 Apr 2007 / #4zionI am from Lodz...although I dont need to move alot from here.However, my response to your enquiry: I think bus is ideal. You cannot just cycle (as that is the only thing you dont seem to have problem with). Really... start thinking BUS.
OP zion 15 Apr 2007 / #5I thought already , LS and if I need to be in Lodz by 9 so there is no bus that leave Warsaw that early becouse it take 2,5 hours to get from here to there if you know any bus that leave Warsaw to Lodz everyday early morning that get me there before 9 let me know I try PKS and Posk express but not luck
OP zion 15 Apr 2007 / #7I work from monday to friday 9 to 5 I live in Warsaw becouse I have a flat here but maybe will have to move to Lodz . Been looking at gum tree and other sites for a cheap flat with furniture do you know some agencies ?but if could go there and back everyday will be better for me .
Grzegorz_ 51 | 6,149 15 Apr 2007 / #8I think that there's going to be a fast train between Warsaw and Lódz, which should make It in little over 1h but not sooner than in 2 years.
OP zion 15 Apr 2007 / #9yes I knew that ,too bad mean while will move to live there if find a cheap flat .I wonder will take two years to make 134 Km of tracks , and Lodz is a major trade center lot of big companies , they shoud have another train company not run by the state to improve things better .
LoneStranger 3 | 382 15 Apr 2007 / #17hey LS can I crash by your place for few weeks:) ... I would love to my friend. But the house aint that big :( ... you know Polish houses...I live in with my parents still.... will have my own when I get a wife :) :) ... :)But if you arrive Lodz...I can help you out.

Giles 16 Apr 2007 / #20need to find out a east way to get to Lodz from Warsaw by train take almosy 3 hours becouse of rail work going on , buses dont seems to be an alternative either and i dont drive .I must get there to work from 9 to 5 everydaySorry to break the news, but I think you really are going to have to relocate. 3hrs commuting is that one way or there and back? Either way, it will take a lot out of you to commute so much, it will effectively end any social life you might wish to have during the week. Bite the bullet and relocate.
Giles 16 Apr 2007 / #22Zion, give me the details, how much you wanna spen, how big and approximately where in lodz, I've got access to lots of sites and I'm bored and more than happy to browse for you....
OP zion 16 Apr 2007 / #23thanks men , I can pay 1200 PLN or 300 Euros included all bills , 1 bedroom , and with furnuture also , the size about 30sqm I even know the area I am looking for is called Bałuty near my office where I will have to work there .
LoneStranger 3 | 382 16 Apr 2007 / #241200 PLNNot bad. I'm a local...I know... and its not bad money :) ... just need to select carefully... and I think you will find the right one in the right location in Lodz.
OP zion 16 Apr 2007 / #26hope so LS once you here what can you tell about this area Bałuty is called good , save ? my mean problem is to find buses or trams from there to the center !
Giles 16 Apr 2007 / #27hmm ok see what I can find, I'll check for centrum....and BalutyRight well seemingly there are not a huge amount of flats on offer in the centrum, but there are few (have only checked one site so far), baluty does seem to have alot to offer. What size are you looking for 1 or 2 bedrooms? 30 sqm or 40 or what?
OP zion 16 Apr 2007 / #28thanks men ,will be going there next week to have a look at some places, so far got some agencies hope they can show me some options also .1 bedroom ,around 30sqm .
