Work / Living in Lublin (as a teacher)!? [36]

Hello folks!

I am a Turkish guy who is going to Chelm to teach. But I plan to live in Lublin as Chelm is pretty small. I will go to Chelm four times a week which will cost me around 300 ZL per month.

I have questions for you to help me out.

1- I will get net 2400 ZL per month. I may make it 3000 ZL with some extras. Is it good money to live in Lublin? I am not planning to rent a flat but a room in a flat which costs around 500 ZL/per month.

2- How are people there? Their reaction for foreigners?

3- Is it a good choice to live in Lublin and travel 8 hours week :) ?

4- Do you think I will be able to find some extra jobs? My concern is not money, I don't want to lose my skills :)

5- Any specific suggestion is appreciated :)

I will come there with an EU project, called Comenius and I will be working in a government school. My money is totally net and guaranteed by EU. I will have permit for 11 months. :) and I will work only 12 hours/week.

I see. Thank you for taking the time to shed some light over this matter.

Well, I had missed your messages :)

First of all: I will be paid by EU, so, no problem.
Second, I am much more qualified than the so-called native speakers. I have been actively teaching English from A1 to C1. I am teacher of this language; not only a speaker.

Third, I will bring a cultural range there, the main thing they expect from me is not teaching English; but showing them a person who does not belong to their lives and broaden their mind about the rest of the world.

Fourth, believe me at this very moment, I earn almost 3 times more than EU will give. :)

Monitor
I do not live in İstanbul. I live in south. A good teacher who can give private lessons can earn that amount.

Anyway, seriously I did not throw this thread to discuss my salary or skills :D But the last word I would want to say about this issue that; do not worry people really, I am professional and I am really leaving big fatty salary here and coming there. I am coming because I am really excited that I may change someone's life, or at least idea for the Europe or, at least for Turkey and because I have sympathy for Poland :)

Thanks anyway,
I appreciate all your comments.

Life / Buying Samsung S4 in Poland? [8]

Hello!

I will be living in Poland for 10 months. In Turkey, S4 is around 2700 ZL! I heard in Poland it is 2000 ZL.

I would like to ask two questions, latter is more important for me.

1- Is it really 2000 ZL?
2- I will live near to border of Ukranie. If one of my Ukrainian friends takes my phone to the border, can she get tax-free from Ukraine? Then can I use it back in Poland?
