Cześć guys :)

My second language is English which is safe to say it's my everyday language because I use it way more often than my native language lol.

It's been a month since I moved to Poland but I haven't met anyone who speaks English very well.
I know this is Poland, English is not the official language but I want to keep up with my aptitude in English. I even would like to bone up on it because learning different languages is endless. Nobody is able to master a language unless you're a robot or android or something.

Anyways, is there any English-spoken community or gathering in Kraków? or are there people who feels what I feel?

Thanks for dropping by :)

I feel you.

But I don't speak Polish, at least not yet. So you're still quite better off!

And I'm in Warsaw, but I totally get how you feel none-the-less.

Good luck!

I host the English Language Club every Wednesday, 6 to 8 pm, at Budda Bar at Rynek Glowny 6 in Krakow. For several years I hosted these meetings at a different location that you may have heard about, but since October, 2013 we have had to move to Budda Bar. This is not a language exchange or Tandem. It is only for speaking English. Usually there are about 30 people. Anybody can join the meeting to meet English-speakers and speak English. You don't have to be a native speaker, just participate and speak English.

Merged: English-speakers' meeting in Krakow every Wednesday, 6 to 8 pm.

@MisterRocky
You posted this in January. This is now May. Do meetings currently take place at the same place and time ?
Then I'll give it a try. I often attended the French meetings since I live in Krakow (2010) because It's my mother tongue, but they're not organized anymore.

Actually I made a mistake when typing. I do attend those French meetings occasionally. It's the Polish meetings which no longer exist (I'm speaking of the meetings which used to take place at Satori each Sunday at 6pm).

Yes, still active. I continue to host these meetings as I have for seven years. We continue to meet every Wednesday from 6 to 8 pm at Budda on the rynek near ul. Sienna. Look for the sign saying "English Meeting".

Hi, do these meetings still take place ? I attended once in 2014 then wasn't really available anymore due to family life, but would like to attend again.

This is MisterRocky. I'm having trouble logging in.Yes, I still host English-speaking get-togethers, but not in the same way. Moonlighting, do you use Facebook?

Apparently I'm logged in properly now.

Hello MisterRocky. I suppressed my FB account a long time ago, but you can send me a private message through this site if you can't reply to this public thread. Cheers...
