UK, Ireland / Time for the Poles from the UK to go home [437]


Surely this can't be true as we are all Europeans now. We are not immigrants. We are simply exploring the Great continent of Europe which is now our new home, which is where we all belong, be us Polish, Irish or British. We are simply Europeans. It's time to start being nice and spread some love. Learn to share. Europe is big enough for all of us. Lets start by welcoming people into our Countries rather than building wall to keep them out.

Work / Recommendations on where to study Polish language for 1 year in Poland? [6]

Hi, I have lived in Szczecin for the past year and it's a fantastic city. Very clean and safe. Apartments are very cheap but quite a high standard. You will love it here. There is always lots going on, lots to see and do. There are a few Polish Language Courses too at the University, they cost around 1500 zloty for an eight month course part time. This will give you the basics. Polish is quite a hard language to learn!! I hope this helps. Good luck.

Life / An Indian wants to convert to Christianity in Poland [60]

Hi, it's great to hear you want to convert to Christianity, as I'm sure you are well aware there are many different branches to the Christian tree so please choose carefully. The evangelical movement in Poland is growing quickly as knowledgeable Christians turn their back on Rome. Kakow has some very exciting Christian projects as does Szczecin. Poland is a fantastic place to be and I'm sure converting here would be a very spiritual experience. Good luck, if I can be of any help please feel free to ask, although as a Christian Evangelical Reverend from the North of Ireland I am just a little bias!

USA, Canada / Who is better informed, the expat or the Polonia crowd? [144]

It has to be the expats living in Poland. Poland is a really hard place to live, and unless you are here 24/7 for at least a year... you wouldn't realise that. It is very easy to love Poland through rose tinted glasses.... but try living here! That's when the reality hits.
