Life / Making friends in Poland - is it easy? [21]

I'm English but have a single Polish friend, whom i met during a university course. She was over here in England doing a year.

Perhaps being over in a different country, you allow yourself to make friends easier without knowing. (subconsciencely)

For example;
You start off with no friends (presumely) in that area.
Depending why your there, holiday, education/business. You'll be thrown in with others.

If on holiday you'll seek entertainment and meet other for seeking the same.
If education/business you'll be in an enviroment where you have common goals, ambitions or interests.

Of course, those are likely the ways you have made friends in the past.

While people are in their own country and town/city they have less reason to engage in new social groups.

Thats just my thoughts anyway ^-^

PS: In England i find it hard to make new friends without reason like the above. I find most people nowadays wherever i go, are all head deep into their phones with their ipod MP3's blazing away.

You can't engage with them visually or audibley.
What's the world coming to ;P
