Travel / Poland from a Persian Tourist's Perspective [269]

Iranian women are one of the most beautiful women I've seen! And they know how to take care about their looks - have a very good taste in clothes, make-up, are in fashion.

easy on the eye....yes.

its the hair on the bodies that is the turn off.

UK, Ireland / Marrying Polish Woman in UK/London [100]

not when you were letting any tom, dick and harry in through the back door...we had a system whereby students could come to australia and study in a field that was a needed skill here and gain permanent residency (PR) after.

the problem being we end up with a lot of indians with MBA's studying to be chefs or hairdressers but with no inclination to pursue that skill and just to get their PR. they then cannot get into their field of study back in india as invariably you need experience.

in addition, college's realising this loop hole where full fee paying students paid 20-30k to get into these courses really ramped up their business to lure these students.

Australia / How to import my car to Australia from Poland? [26]

theres this new stupid law comeing up that there cops can stop you on there street and search you for weapons for no reason

numbnut, maybe it is coz of this, read and expand your mind:

theage.com.au/victoria/call-for-tacstyle-campaign-to-target-knifings-20100222-orup.html

Do you even know what you are talking about?

check the guys posts, 90% involve slagging australia off and the other 10% slagging poland off.

that's way we choose Perth, and it has less humidity than other very nice, but over populated big cities in AU ;)

sydney, melbourne, adelaide are from over populated when compared to major cities around the world.

perth may have less humidity, but the 35+ degrees at 8am are killers.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

bad news, the rights to top gear have been bought by a commercial network and as asikia said we have ads a plenty. it could have the potential to ruin the show.

im also not sure how up to date it will be.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

Polish shop at Vic market is pretty expensive...
And I got some stuff from there that was well past best before date.
Once I got lettuice from south melbourne market with worms in it... since then I'm shopping at Safeway just across the street from the market but I don't like it.
I'm making my own pierogi tomorrow as its my birthday... I need something polish to celebrate it.
So what do you do for fun ?

it is expensive but considering the closest polish clubs to us are scumshine, dandewog or rowville it is what we deal with it.

yeah, i was at vic mkt 2 weeks ago and was told by a store owner for touching the peaches. i promptly went to safeway/coles to do the rest of my vegie/fruit shopping.

i live in the norf, so i shop at psarokos.

for fun, usually go for drinks after work on a friday. not much else really.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

you live in southbank from memory?

if you're looking for fruit, veg, fish, meats, etc then try the south melbourne/victoria markets.

the victoria one even has a polish deli, just dont get sucked into buying the pierogi there.

coles/safeway are the best for the other things.

UK, Ireland / Recently beaten up in England by 3 Polish guys [93]

In the 15 years I have been here, the only times I have ever seen two men fighting both of them have been foreigners. Poles will sometimes fight if it's just two-on-one but usually it's three against one.

i dont think this is exclusive to poles or pawels...the only times I have seen two men fight was back in high school. nowadays it is 2 or more onto 1, the only one on one fights involving one party knifing or glassing the other party.

Australia / Finding work on Prospective marriage visa, Melbourne ( subclass 300 ) [30]

Is there a law here that I cant work here even when i have full working rights ?

you should reference the terms of your visa?

if it is anything like the working holiday visa for commonwealth nationals then you can only work for 6 months out of the 12 months you're here.

you have worked 4 out of the 6 months, so that probably would put off employers looking for 6 month contractor/permanent.

your best bet is to seek cash paid work (bar/restaurant/cleaning/etc), even if it is just to get out of the house/apartment/flat.

Australia / Polish Culture in Melbourne, Australia [87]

try this site, but the people may not be in your age range: dziuplamelbourne.com

there are also monthly (sometimes once every 2 months) polish dances, but it would be hard meeting new people there. but you never know.

Australia / Meeting Poles in Adelaide [15]

i think adelaide has the biggest polish community in australia....google polish clubs/restaurants in adelaide and you should get a number of places.

i even think there are some previous threads on this very subject.
