Work / Would it be easy to live in Poland next summer and find a job and a place to live? [14]

I would love to volunteer what type??? But I think I would still need to find some type of job just to at least cover my living expenses. Any job would be fine though and I have great experience Just to let you know ive worked at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester for 3 years and am currently a student worker and filling in for an administrator.

Work / Would it be easy to live in Poland next summer and find a job and a place to live? [14]

I was adopted so I dont know of any family members we do have some family friends how hard would it be to find a place are they really expensive?

Yes i am a polish citizen and am currently learning to speak polish it was my first language so it should come somewhat easy

Genealogy / Trying to find info on Pod Kopcem in Krakow - dom dziecka children house (orphanage) [30]

Peter: Well just to answer some of that from my experience I can still speak some english just a few phrases but my adopted parents didn't speak any polish so when they adopted me I was immediately put into English classes to learn the language and never spoke polish again. As for how much I can remember I remember certain things about the orphanage such as the schedule of the day going to church small things. The thing that I do remember the most is my mother she would visit me everyday and when she could would bring me a lollipop. I can remember what she looks like and can picture it when ever I want. And about treading lightly I will but it is something that just bothers me all the time even if she doesn't want to know me I just need to see her. I have grown up in a great home with great parents who have given me everything. I got lucky but she used to visit me everyday when I was at the orphanage so that makes me think that she might want to see me and see what I have become. I just have to at least try otherwise I will regret it forever.

I have herd about the laws does anyone know how hard it is to get information from the orphanage or the courts? My parents told me a long time ago that it is actually against the law to look for birth parents in Poland is that true?

Thank you
