Any Polish meet ups in Sydney for late-2010?? I lived in Poland for 3 years with my other half and would be very interested in meeting POlish people (although I am British) :)

Hopefully Polish Club Ashfield revives the disco scene. This Sound of Polska failed in Sydney and Polska Balanga is also a failure.

These 2 events tried to get Polish people together with dismal turn outs.

Apparently Polish Club Ashfield is looking into restarting the disco it used to have.

Back in 1994 to 1996 Polish Club Ashfield had the best disco scene in Sydney.

I am hoping that the club restarts the disco. Based on what I heard it should start late November 2010.

Merged: Poles who work or study in Australia, let's meet in Sydney

Have just returned from the UK where i spent six years living with Poles. Would be great to hook up with any of you living in Sydney for work or study, m/f included.

Not sure how prevalent Polish migration is in Australia, but i've managed to meet a few here already. It would be great to meet up for a Tyskie, or we can just ***** about Australia if you like ;).

Come on, i know you're shy.

It's ok, i did find the correct discussion board. Only lost for a minute ;).

I would love to meet Poles. Managed to strike up a conversation with a few that I met down in Sydney. A couple of them were young and seemed really unhappy to be here, but i won't let that deter me. Sometimes I feel (and I know this from being in the UK too) that poles aren't really happy wherever they are. lol.

let's hope the polish club in the city and disco in Ashfield will be rekindled.... Come on Poles, it's up to you!

Travelling, working and studying. Yes i'm Aussie but have a German passport/ mother. :)

I have also been to Poland. It's very nice, but you know this.

edit: sorry I did not answer your second question. I liked the Uk. I spent a good deal of my life there and had some unique and wonderful experiences with some great people.

Unfortunately though, i graduated in 2009 and felt the effects of the economic landslide that's happening there and really just had to leave if I had any hopes of pursuing my ambition. But I think this is a better place for me in the long run comparatively.

Australia has a good and prosperous future and will fill up with others i'm sure. I'm looking forward to meeting more people from Europe as they move over in the coming years.

You see, what Europeans don't like to understand about this place is that it's constantly changing, and is very forward thinking. And can be said to belong to everyone and noone. Europeans can't handle that lack of rigid sense of identity. It took me a while to work that out too. Only by losing the mold can you truly adapt to the new world. The old world can be very addictive in that sense.

Anyway - there is money to be made here and a good life if you want it. Isn't that what we all want...? That and a fresh chance...? can you make something old, fresh?

I got stuck on the notion that I had to live in Europe if i wanted an interesting life... not so. The fact that I come from Australia with dual nationality has given me, like many other Aussies, the chance to live abroad. It really is the land of opportunity, but it's not Europe!

Hi Dobruska,

I'm keen.
It's a ways for me, but I want to visit the club before I leave Sydney.

I don't speak Polish (because I'm not Polish) but would be interested to chat with you about your move here and about Polish/ Aussie issues generally.

I'm free next Thursday for a Tyskie. PM me if you don't get a better offer. ;)

All the best.

Well many places are good places to visit... but Australia's tourism is well renowned. I think you and your missus would have a wonderful time here. (Just make sure you don't hit any recent disaster zones...)

It's everyone's maybe someday place cause it's alllll the way on the ''opposite'' side of the world. ;)

Merged: Polonia in Sydney (to meet over coffee, share recommendations)

Hello,

I will be coming to Sydney in a couple of weeks. I work as a researcher among Polish migrants in the UK and I would be happy to meet up over a coffee/beer with some fellow Poles to hear stories about living in Australia (and get some recommendations on good places to go etc:)). Let me know if you want to keep me company!

Mateusz, there are Polish Clubs in Ashfield and Bankstown.
In Ashfield on Friday night (24th May) we're throwing a rock concert. That's a great opportunity to meet a lot of Polish people from Sydney and also to have some Polish food and drinks and a lot of fun. :)

Details of the event are in my thread ""BRING IT BACK AGAIN" - live music night at Ashfield Polish Club (Sydney)".

Cheers,
Martyna
