Genealogy / How common is it for other people of Polish origin to discover they are actually Jewish? [127]

Very few people had the courage to admit to being Jewish in Poland after WWII. Some of my friends used to go to church so no one would suspect.

I find that hard to believe. Did your father live in Poland?

For me, there isn't really much to argue about here. Even if Polish cities were paradise on earth, you'll never have the right climate. Just check the monthly temperature averages:

Month Warsaw Melbourne
Jan -3 20
Feb -3 20
Mar 2 19
Apr 8 16
May 13 12
Jun 17 11
Jul 19 10
Aug 18 10
Sept 14 13
Oct 8 14
Nov 3 17
Dec -1 18

That makes average temp in Warsaw about 8, Melbourne: 15.

this guy does pretty good with pierogi (remember to wet the edges of the dough with your finger so it will stick better.

c'mon, look at his itenerary, Seanus. Then, when he wanted some balance, he encountered lowlifes. Most of the time, on a vacation, it takes a moment of feeling like a victim to write off a whole city. To his credit, he's not doing that. Or, at least he was not doing it in the first post. Damn, I like this band:

I don't think he is the one with the chip. He described the good points of the trip, then the incident.

then you might want to step away from this forum, until it's renamed "Only good things about Poland".

It was a legit forum question. He wanted to know if what happened to him was an isolated incident, or routine.
And looking at the replies, we can clearly see that there are many unstable people everywhere. ;)

;) Yes, the guy was good looking, that's probably why I posted,.. because it was pretty obvious he did not know how to cook. Keeping raw chicken from the food you're going to serve raw is pretty basic. He was tapping the raw chicken with that wooden spoon, than the cabbage. And package of greek seasoning? Little paprika, oregano, salt and pepper is pretty much it, unless you want to play with a little corriander, cumin, thyme, cinnamon..

(Krakow or Warsaw don't even hit the radar screens) <- maybe that's a good thing.

Life / People living in Warsaw are rootless peasants! [41]

True! My aunt, after leaving the village she was born and raised in, for the great city of Kielce, goes to great lengths to hide her own roots, and uses 'country' (ze wsi) and one of the greatest insults in her repertoire.

Now, considering that she knows what she's talking about, maybe there are some backwards characteristics that she worked hard to root out and prefers to avoid since then.

Without the cost of living figured in, the list is pretty useless, IMHO.

why is that?
I always thought of an expat as someone that's looking for tax heaven for their money. Immigrant as someone that needs to move in order to feed the family.

That's the price for your own freedom, also. Take care of your own kids, and raise them well.
