Love / In 2009 nearly 4000 Poles married a foreigner [170]

Im late to the party (and I'm not even sure I want an invite) but!

I'm a New Zealander married to a Polish guy - absolute angel, sweet, kind, tender and thoughtful, and still very happy after 5 years together. Neither of us expects the other to support the other; we're a partnership, working together to help each other happy and safe.

His uncle is married to a Japanese girl; lovely girl, great guy - they've lived in Poland for a while, lived in Japan for a bit, and now living in London.

His cousins are married to a Mauritian guy (apologies if thats not the right nationality moniker), French girl, Canadian girl and Canadian guy, and Irish girl.

They're just average Poles; tradesmen (plumbers, builders) or higher educated (lawyers, accountants etc), just like the people they've married (stock brokers, accountants, teachers, receptionists etc).

True love doesnt have a colour, let alone nationality.

Law / Poland's Work Permit for Non EU married to Pole [8]

Thats a relief - after 6yrs of mountain climbing in the UK, its nice to have a smaller hill to walk up.

I'd love to teach children if they'll let me - I miss my nieces and nephews from home immensely, and would like to hope I've got plenty of patience as the 3rd of ten kids.

Is teaching children paid less or the same as adults? I've got a UK CRB check, but is there likely to be anything else I need?

Law / Poland's Work Permit for Non EU married to Pole [8]

My husband has decided that before we move to New Zealand, he would like to come back to Poland for a year, and as my Polish is terrible, probably the only option I have is teaching English. I've got a minor TESOL certificate but nothing else. After reading the forums, its possibly a blessing that we'll be in Gdansk rather than Krakow, but the main question is, do I get a work permit through my employer (obviously if I actually managed to get a job), or through my husband?
