Language / Będę kupowała/będę kupić [18]

No need to use the word "będę

Będę mógł/mogła kupić has a completely different meaning than "kupię".

Must have a kettle

For morning coffee in bed. Kettles were available this time but the lack of a fridge in a 2-person room with an outside temperature of 31 degrees was inconvenient. It's good that there was a vending machine with cold mineral water on each floor free of charge. By the way, it turned out that the single rooms had refrigerators.

Travel / Tourism in Poland [41]

When looking for hotels in Poland, I tend to choose large ones, at least three stars, naturally with parking under the hotel. Last week it was Zielona Góra, 2 weeks ago Jelenia Góra. Breakfasts are good and plentiful. Often better than in German hotels. However, every hotel has some shortcomings, such as not having a refrigerator in the room or the card not working properly.

Food / Buying alcohol, wine in Poland. It's very difficult. [86]

however the wine selection isn't good in those.

In Biedronka, however, you can buy Portuguese wines, and with a bit of luck, quite good ones. No big deal, it is a Portuguese store after all.

Off-Topic / Pop A Cork - Wine [440]

the best is black currant wine.

If you have to make something yourself, it's only cherry liqueur. The best cherry liqueur I ever drank was not from a store but from (someone's) grandmother.

always smile and say hello when I pass them though

I try not to engage in discussions with them, not because I have anything against them, but because it's simply a waste of my time.

Other drivers who see that car on the road are more cautious than normally.

When I drive after a driving lesson, which is usually a drag, I always look for ways to overtake her.

Life / Polish women fight for their rights - manifa and other events [306]

Let's get back to the topic. Women can be very valuable employees. I don't know why they always earn less. Maybe they don't know how to negotiate hard enough with employers and agree too quickly to the proposed salary amounts. Actually, they should be protected by trade unions and collective bargaining agreements.

, for I have sinned

I didn't know that ZOMO also went to confession.
