Love / How to make a Polish guy happy? (we're moving to Mexico) [51]
I wouldn't say it's common. And I meant one cousin that is in a relationship with a guy completely not related. It's my posting while doing chores that's at fault for the misunderstanding.
It's not to me tbh. To me it's the commitment that matters and that is irrespective of marriage.
Is it normal in Poland for cousins to enter relationships?

And my cousins went into a relationship after both of them having different partners, lived together for 18 years with 3 kids before marrying (and that basically for legal reasons with the house) and are still together after over 20 years.
To each their own.

I'm completely fine with that as I'm clueless about art :)
I would say that illustrator can be a great artist but doesn't have to be. It's a job rather than calling :)

I would say that the main difference between an artist and an illustrator is the level of creativity. Illustrators base the illustrations on the material. Has a base so to speak. Artist requires more own input.

Yes. My town was heavily flooded, we were cut off, no water for a bit...All that. Personally I wasn't at any risk as we I lived in one of the highest point of our town
My mom was out of town (her work required her to go to Gliwice once a month to meet with her boss) and someone came in saying 'you better go back quickly, the flood is getting worse and you may not be able to get back'. Shortly after she got back the bridge she needed to cross got flooded.
She came home and said to my dad- go to the shops and buy water as there might be big problems layer on. He went and came back with 4 small bottles😂. He said there wasn't anything left. My mum found some in other store but that was my parents to a t.
Were you living in the area affected by that flood?

It's just incredible!
In 1997 I was a kid so the flood served a bit more like an interesting adventure. We even went for a free camp. I do remember however how many places never reopened after the flood.

From what I read the retention reservoir is holding nicely and should prevent the 1997- like disaster.
it looks like the flood that will hit Wrocław this time will be similar

And Oland doesn't have a lot of it already.
My hometown was heavily flooded in 1997. But thankfully the retention reservoir that was built there ( originally planned by Nazi Germany but built only recently) is doing it's job.
Climatologists say that large parts of the world will have major issues sourcing drinking water in the next decades.

Again, no. At least not in any household I visited. If you came as a guest (especially special one) but not on normal/daily basis
especially 30-40 years ago. Drinking vodka or spiritus after dinner used to be Popular in Poland

Normal. I like what I hear but after about a minute it's starting to be too much.
The same way I'm not really into concerts even of the artists I like. I like their songs and all but big concert, the way it sounds is just too much for me..
I went to rawa blues once. The big concerts weren't my thing. But after, sitting on the floor in some bar listening to the same type of music- heaven.

Same here. I generally like collaborations a lot because I love how different voices synchronise yet keep the song 'fresh'.
The first album my older sister bought was Kayah 'Kamien' and we both got mesmerised by the flute section in this song:
That sounds amazing! Better than the Bajm original in my opinion.
