Real Estate / TV Show looking for Expat Home Buyers in Poland [13]

I love this show! ( and Invader Zim ) anyhoo..there was an episode where a teacher and family moved to Poland and chose a unfinished house, when they did the update months later....not much work was done to complete it.

Life / As a black gay man (US) visiting Warsaw this summer, will I get beat up for nothing? [65]

Dude, you're a 6'2, 235lb ex-Football player! Black, white, or green. Who in their right mind would F with you?

Polish people are cool and mind their own business, nothing to worry about.

It's the drunk soccer hooligans on holiday, ( who always seem to travel in packs ) that you might encounter at 3am, that could be a problem...but that can happen in any city and to anyone.

USA, Canada / Travelling to Poland from the U.S. on a expired Passport [43]

I can bet they won't sell you a ticket

She can book the flight over the Internet ( Orbitz etc..)
The problem will occur at the counter.
The airline will ALWAYS have last say on who they will allow to board.
If anything is out of order, you're rolling the dice.

News / Poland's Lost Generation [172]

warszawski

will they transform the country?

It's already in motion. If you read through some of these threads, not only are they returning, but bringing their new mates with them. Americans, Irish, Brits, Islanders etc.

Eventually, all will be involved at some level.

all the goods positions are taken

This is where entrepreneurship comes into play. That "small %" you're referring to can have great impact.
Only 2 people started Google.

News / Poland's Lost Generation [172]

because of the timing

When entrepreneurs see a need in an under served market, the time is always NOW!
Startup capital can be raised anywhere in the world for the proper idea/product.

Poland is political stable, centrally located, EU member and has relatively inexpensive educated workforce.
All attractive to outside investors.

Having worked abroad in multinationals, many returning Poles will understand how to navigate through the obstacles or create parallel systems of the west. ( $200,000 is not a lot of money to raise by the way)

News / Poland's Lost Generation [172]

For every one successful startup another 10-15 fail.

Every successful business was a risk for someone at startup.
Old or new, none can guarantee a profit.
The local business page has dozens of Chapter 7 listings every week.

But..it doesn't stop new people from trying and I'm sure it will be the same for Poland.

Nature abhors stagnation and kills off anything that can't adapt.
The free market mimics nature in this regard.

Study / AFRICAN STUDENTS INVASION in Krakow [197]

Jarnowa:

Physically, you must be extremely hideous if you can't pull a girl.

If you're trying to impress them with your intellect...you're doomed.

Love / Do African or Afro- American women find Polish men attractive? [179]

The old saying, Different strokes, for different folks

Men and women the world over can have offspring with each other regardless of race.

If you rewind the clock, All humans originated in the same area ( what is now called Africa) and migrated away from each other.
Physical adaptation to different environments and cultural habits are the only changes.

Choosing a mate with variety in the species, parallels walking into a Porsche dealership and having a color choice of your 911.
Underneath the hood, they're all the same.

Study / AFRICAN STUDENTS INVASION in Krakow [197]

there was a young guy who sat opposite to us, wearing really short shorts without undies; with his uncircumcised (ugh) dick and balls hanging out from the side

A reverse "Basic Instinct" moment.

Study / AFRICAN STUDENTS INVASION in Krakow [197]

despite all these differences.

So....you want Europeans to live in A stagnant pond, inbreeding to extinction. So you can land a tart. Very selfish.

Love / What's the way to seduce a Polish girl ? [64]

You can't seduce anyone unless they find something attractive about you. Looks, style, charm. intellect or $$$. These are just tools to break the Ice. The rest is their call.
