Same for electronic goods
If you bring electronic goods, make sure you have an electrical transformer because it's different electrical currency. If you buy a new car be very wary because they tend to get stolen faster and if you have something interesting inside, the windows might get broken.
You can find some deals at a bazar where they sell clothes and everything else. American clothes go for higher price, so it is wise and cheaper to bring them with you.
The food is excellent. Fresh fruits and vegetables. Deserts out of this world!!
Be prepared to pay for using the toilets. And the sand-paper toilet paper.
You'll soon learn that the hot water is on the right marked with red.
Stores are well stocked.
Watch out for nervous drivers. Make sure your brakes are very good.
You will hear a lot of complaining about everything.
Get used to watch boring TV programs with only 3 or 4 channels, unless you have a satelite.
You probably won't be able to return something you bought and didn't like.
Be prepared for unsmiling service in restaurants or stores.
The cashiers sit in stores and other places where in the US they stand to serve the people better. Some are impolite and don't care about the customer.
Poland is a beautiful country, most people are very warm, hospitable with big hearts.
I was born in the US but moved there when I was 8. I missed the US at first, cried at night because I didn't have the neat stuff I had in the US, but slowly got used to country. The teachers were very strict, but in Poland people tend to have goals, they want to achieve something, be better than others but it will take time to get used to it.
