Life / $3,000-$4,000 a month - would we have enough money to live in Poland? [273]
I think you would have a ball in Gdynia. Im from London (Polish origin) and lived there for about two years in the late 90s and found it great. Although I did speak Polish, and knew a lot about Poland, Im sure that you will pick up a lot living in a Polsih environment and you have Lukas to help! I have a number of friends who lived in Poland because they married Polish partners and all managed really well. Gdynia is a lovely city and I have always found people there really friendly. You are also in a lovely area for exploring the Baltic coast and the surrounding countryside, as well as the neighbouring cities of Sopot and Gdansk, both of which are great - Gdansk is particularly beautiful and has lots going on. You can explore some of the gorgeous countryside including the Kashubian (Kaszuby)area with its distinct dialect/language, and folklore and arts, you will be within fairly easy reach of places like Malbork - it will be great - go for it!
