Travel / Why do you visit Poland? [223]
I don't know what your experience of life is outside of Poland but I feel strongly that you have misjudged people's perceptions..
If anything, Poles are regarded in higher esteem for being brave enough to stand up against the mouth that feeds them.....Brussels.....
other people im Europa know Poland only from TV or newspapers and if you know they produce only negative news about Poland

Travel / Why do you visit Poland? [223]
Merged:
I thought that this might be an interesting thread for people to share experiences from both sides.
Those of us who don't live in Poland to share our experience's of going to Poland and also for Polish residents to share their experiences of visiting other countries.
I have a somewhat lengthy intro.
My Mums parents moved to France from Poland between the two world wars.
So I have a lot of family in France and have visited that country every two or three years since I was a toddler.
My earliest memories of France was of a very different country from England, fascinating,different but quite backward and primitive,
I am talking about the early to mid sixties now.
In 1966, when I was 9 years old, we went to Spain.
The Fascists were still in power then and as a nine year old I hardly noticed.
Except for the policemen with funny hats and batons patrolling the beach to control nut salesmen and topless bathers....
Then in 1968, aged eleven, I went on a school cruise to Norway and The Netherlands and discovered two countries that in many ways were closer to the England that I knew.
After many years,in 1969 my dad at last got a British passport, before that he only had a travel document issued by the British Government, that was only valid in a few countries and not in Poland.....
So now we were going to Poland...... it was 1969, I was 12 years old, but fairly well travelled.......despite the warm reception we had from family in Poland.The shock was immense...... backward France and Fascist Spain just did not compare.......
After that, we visited every three years or so and I have witnessed the huge changes that Poland has experienced and endured.
I have not been to Poland for three years now, but it is no longer the same country I first visited as a child in 1969.
I am proud of Poles and of Poland for how they have changed the country since 1989.
And would be curious about other people's perceptions of Poland and also of Polish perceptions of other countries they have visited or lived in.

You made the right move.
It is not a question of intelligence or stupidity though, more one of susceptibility.
I can take spirits or leave them, others find it hard to stop drinking.
To me, that is sensible drinking.
You have to be careful with alcohol, especially spirits.
I knew a few Polish alcoholics as I am sure you all have.
It never ends well.
so I stopped drinking

This is your biggest mistake and shows your ignorance of how Polish people think.
We are Slavs and most of us respect that history.
But Russians are Slavs too and they have done so much harm and destroyed any idea of a Slav union.
There is no Slavic unity and never will be until Russians change their ways.
Serbs will never gain any respect until they stop licking Russian arses.....

But I don't think that Brits should be ashamed of their history.
No.
The French too, but they don't have the power or strength of the Germans.
Yes, I still see Germany as a threat.
Not in warlike terms.....I don't think you will, as a nation, ever repeat your mistakes.
But politically and economically, of course you are a threat!
However, militarily, you need to get over your guilt.
WW2 was a long time ago.
You need to up your military big time.
And we all know you can do that.
We agree that the EU will die eventually.

Why should I?
What has really changed in the German psyche?
Berlin still wants to control Europe.
Germany is by far the most powerful economy in Europe, but too many Germans think that gives them the right to tell other European nations how to behave.....WRONG!
If Germans push East Europeans too hard there will be a breaking point.
That does not work with me.
Bigger, more bloated, less controllable and weaker.....
You talk about empires and to me The Eu is a German empire.
But all these empires failed in the end!
British, Roman, Germanic, Greek, Turkish, Russian,French, Spanish, Portuguese. ..... all gone.....
How long before The Eu collapses?
A question of time.

That will never happen.
As much as the French rise against it, the Lingua Franca is already established and embedded... And it is English.
Firstly, I am only British born and my ancestral history is exclusively Polish.
Having said that, I don't think the Brits regard themselves as losers because they still retain huge advantages from friends gained in their former empire, the greatest and largest the world has ever seen, I might add.
Germans tried to emulate the Brits and failed, so don't have those benefits.
