Life / Poles are not racist [873]
I am from Nepal, living in Beijing now. I have been closely following most of the strings in this forum as I have made up my mind to take a job in Wroclaw. Sometimes I get scared after reading what people are writing here because I am moving with my wife and a 2 years old son. I am used to all sort of unwelcome staring on street and strange behaviours by locals in Beijing. What I wonder is if there is any physical danger at all. I have recently talked about moving to Poland with an English friend here, she said quite frankly that "Polish people have reputation of being very kind." And I don't understand people talking about Poles or Brits or whoever are racists after they had one bad encounter. I would be grateful if anyone could give me some suggestions on living in Wroclaw or Poland as a whole. Thanks all.
