Food / The Fortuna beer brewed near Poznan, Poland [8]

dark cherry beer is absolutely the best Polish beer I have ever tried!

I've never tried any sweet beer before of any kind. I think I'd like to give it a try.

Travel / Early churches (built 700-1000 years ago) in Poland? [25]

built 700-1000 years ago?

All I can say is wow. It's sometimes not easy for me to grasp the idea of a building being over 700+ years in age. In the United States, we may consider existing buildings age 200+ years, as being extremely old and rare.

Food / Coffee in Poland: cheap and undrinkable / expensive and good [89]

i flat out don't drink coffee so i can't attest to any of it

I'm not a coffee hound either. I tried being brave once at a local coffee house. I ordered an expresso. The damn thing kept me up all night. I think I'll stick with the hot cocoa instead.

Life / Do Polish parents let/encourage their kids to **** outdoors? [40]

performing other bodily functions in public places while people are passing by.

Kissing? Now that's a sight I can handle, lol. I'd probably gag, if I were to see the pee pee thing take place. Doesn't matter what age the person is.

Love / Are polish women competative about men? [20]

Are polish women competative about men?

If a man wants to play hard to get, I won't compete to win him over. He's basically not worth it. I had a bf last year. He ended up with black gf, just because she has a big bootie. I'm not gonna alter my body by adding dupa implants just to please him.

News / 300 art treasures found in Polish garden shed! [11]

Perhaps because they were missing from galleries and private collections...

Who knows. It's good to know some of the artwork is now in a museum, protected from more damage from the elements.

Food / Is chocolate popular in Poland? [52]

Is chocolate popular in Poland?

Lol, does a bear poop in the woods? My aunt from Lublin gave me a delicious box of Czekoladki chocolates. The YUMMY taste was similar to Godiva chocolates. I was selfish... I didn't share the candy with anyone :)


  • They're mine, all mine :)

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

becksi. That's far too much to pay for this beer. It costs under 3zł in Poland

The Polish beer was costly, because cans were sold individually at a Polish festival, held in Los Angeles, CA.

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

Recently, I had Tatra beer in a can. Good flavorful taste. It better taste good for $5.00 per can! There's something about bottled beer though, that seems to make it taste much better.

Language / How hard is it to learn Polish? [178]

How hard is it to learn Polish?

Freakin difficult for me. Made two grammatical errors at the Polish church today. My errors were pointed out & corrected. It's just a bit frustrating at times.

Life / Can any young Poles can still speak Russian [25]

Can any young Poles can still speak Russian

My cousins are able to speak very little Russian today. They are now in their late thirties. They're more concerned with continuing to learn the English language, in order to assist them with their careers.

USA, Canada / Going back to the Old Country of Poland after more than 25 years! (from USA) [249]

When greeting my heretofore-never-met ciocia do I kiss her cheeks, kiss her hand, hug her all of the above?

When I met my dear ciocia for the first time, we exchanged kisses on the cheek and hugs. She gave me a kiss that she referred to as a Russian kiss. It was 3 kisses on alternate cheeks.

My male second cousin shocked the hell out of me. Whe we met, he gave me a huge kiss right on my lips, with his bushy mustache. it was so grotesque. My advice... don't let any male cousins kiss you in Poland.

History / 1920 Battle of Warsaw - English trailer and film [55]

I would really like to see the movie in 3D instead of watching it on dvd):

I'm not making a suggestion. I'm only wondering... would bootleg dvd's of the film, possibly start being sold in Poland soon?
