UK, Ireland / British considering our options, as to where to live with my Polish fiance? [12]

Hi! This is my first post as a brand new member. I am British and I live in the uk with my polish fiance and we have just had our first child! We are currently considering our options as to where to live, I like the idea of moving to Poland but wouldn't be sure where to start! I have concerns about where would be best to move to, getting a job what sorts of jobs will be availible for someone like myself. My polish isnt fantastic but I am practicing all the time I can and (I think...at least I hope!) it is getting better everyday! I would like to live near to my fiance's family near Głogow but I am open to suggestions! Has anyone else on here had a similar experience (sucessful or ortherwise) or does anyone have any advice for us?

Thanks in advance :) Jay

Ideal! thanks for all the help! Im weighing up options still, looking at jobs online anywhere in lubuskie would be ideal, wrocław seems to have quite a few jobs. My main experience is in sales/customer service in an Opticial (Opticians) environment although i am currently in an office sales/credit control post. Do you think there would be many jobs for someone like me?

Thanks for the warnings on that, all of this is quite helpful to a foreign devil like me as I worry my fiance's views may be a tad biased! Is there anywhere you could suggest as a good place to set up? I have visited the area and I really enjoyed my time there but I think that it might be different if I were living there.

Thanks Ajb!

If you can speak German i would look at VW Polska in Polkowice.

I am a mega VW fan so I would have a trouser based accident if I was told I could work there even as a cleaner! Unfortunatley I have no knowledge of the german language (was taught french at school! for all the good that ever does anyone!) I was hoping to work back in an optical lab as when I was in Poland I saw many branches of Vision Express with labs and this is where my experience is although I dont think they would have much use for an englishman who can only speak pidgeon polish! Wrocław is looking like a good option at the moment, but also staying put is looking safer...!
