Travel / Cost of "living" Zakopane (Tourist) [10]
ah right, you're comin in the summer, ya wont be skiing then so :)
Jaysus ya must be cultured or something, thought most leaving cert'ers went to Ibiza or Ayia Napa.
The time I stayed there I think I only paid €8 a night in a b&b yea 160 is steep but I suppose it's not so bad seeing as zakopane is meant to be the best of poland's winter resorts, although if I were you I'd try and rent a house/big apartment just coz 10 days of constantly eating out twice a day will bore the fúck outta ye.
Loving the Tyskie...best Polish beer, mighty stuff. feck the taebags, plenty of tae over here, bring taytos though, impossible to get decent small bags of crisps here :P
Looks like you'll have plenty to do anyway so you'll be kept busy...oh you're student cards aren't worth a fúck over here, I found that out the first year I was here, doesn't matter if it has EU or whatever written on them, ticket collectors on trains are for the most part pure spas and will try and get every penny they can outta ya, but fúck it like for a tenner a head you could prob get a taxi down & back and travel with a bit more comfort. contact the krakow tourist office they'll have numbers for renting big taxis to zakopane.
dont bother with the whisky man, as they say over here, you dont bring a stick with you if you're going to a forest, loads and laods of different vodkas to keep ya busy
anyway, eating out isn't expensive if you're coming with euros and if you're gonna be cooking & eating in an apartment then it's about a quarter of that again....which means more money for pints
