Travel / Going to Tricity (Trojmiasto) soon. What to see, where to go - not so obvious but interesting places [14]

Merged: If you had one day in trojmiasto , what would you do?

Hi All,

I'm an expat living in 3-City for 3 years, and I feel I have not experienced any of it. The websites out there say the same things, old town, sopot, etc. etc.

But what are the hidden gems? The places that really caught your eye. I need to start experiencing new things here in trojmiasto and surrounding areas.

I can give an example - This place in Puck is fantastic -
bursztynia.pl

Please, all suggestions welcome, the more unusual the better.

Thanks in advance

Mick

Life / I'm British in Poland and I think that it's time to go back to the UK! [240]

We all, both polish and brits have got plenty a tale to tell about the polish system, (and yes the british isn't so great either) and how hard it can be, and also, if you know the right people how easy it can be.

The question is, is it getting better at all? Is there light at the end of the tunnel or not? Was it like this 1 year ago, 2 years ago?

Don't Worry Be Happy!

At the end of the day, we are here. It's a big pain to go all the way back. And the UK is not so great.

Everytime something goes wrong, go to your local and have a cheap pivo. I'm sure by the time you see the bottom of your glass you won't care as much.

I know I rant as much as anyone but there are positives. I am like wroclaw now, I expect things to go wrong and when they don't i am pleasantly surprises. (Im still waiting for that feeling lol)

I am having the same problems as you mate, and have already ranted on about this on a different subject page. Why can poland not understand the obligations of being in the EU. The stupid thing is, it really doesn't have to be so complicated. The simple way around it i think would be to issue I.D cards to internationals once they have been in Poland 3 months. With all the same info a pole has. Make it bright orange for all i care, this system stinks and I can't believe this. Are poland so scared of non-poles living in their country?
