Life / Electricity in Poland: plug and voltage? [73]

Thread attached on merging:
CAT NEEDS A CUP OF TEA IN POLAND !!!

I am going to Krakow in the summer and have just booked the hotel. It's a basic but good value hotel and they do not provide a kettle in the room for tea (which I must have). Can I buy an adaptor before I go and take my kettle with me?

I would be very grateful for any advice about this and what voltage and plug type it should be. Also where would I buy an adaptor like this? Thanks and purrs :-)

Thank you Simren, I have found a two pin adapter and ordered it on-line. It's only £2.99 and says it is ok for Poland so I will use this:-

Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]

so Poles should abandon Polish and learn German instead

NO !! I love polish even though it's really difficult - people should enjoy the challenge. I don't like the sound of german - reminds me of old war movies. Keep poles speaking polish and I'll be happy :-)

Cantonese though probably comes in a close second

I thought Cantonese was relatively easy - I mean there's no past tense or verb endings to worry about. Also the Cantonese for Monday - Saturday translates as Day1, Day2, Day3 etc....... and there are lots of other aspects of the language that are so simple. I know it's a tonal language but I love singing so it's just like learning the tune of the words. 是 嗎 ?
