News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]
@Ant63 and Milky: 100% ok with you and like you say, Ant63, foreigners in Poland should broaden their social circles. Those foreigners in Poland, 99% either expats or ESL "teachers" first of all because of their limited (if not any) knowledge of the Polish language are very restricted in their socialization. As they hang around only with very rich Poles that they meet through their work, their views about Poland are false. The Polish society is not made up of only rich people working for international companies, speaking English and often more languages and traveling abroad for pleasure; such people don't represent more than a very low %. Poland is not limited to beer drinking on the Krakow Rynek or fancy shops on Nowy Swiat, contrary to what a lot of PF members claim because they don't want to see real Poland.
