Life / Reasons for moving to Poland [291]
Good for you!
Hi,
I'm visiting family and friends every 6 months so i think i know how things are at the moment. Where i'm from (Warsaw) veg, fruit, meat etc. is always organic because i get it from one of many markets in the city (there are two 5 minutes away from my parents).
Markets in UK tend to be demolished or just abandoned. I have never seen a market in UK where you can buy different type of cheeses, veg, meat, fresh bread etc. I think the best proof would be my bf who was shocked to see so many different items sold on the market, which are fresh and cheap - goes to show this type of establishment is nowhere to be found here.
Yes, Polish are racist and you are not inventing the wheel by saying that. But then again, you would probably be if your country was to be run by the church. Incidents i am referring to are not racist attacks (believe me i saw these here), they are attacks on people who are performing their job and being attacked because those plonkers feel like it.
I have been to Ireland, Scotland, Wales, North East of England so i know there are beatiful places in UK. The only problem is that most of the seaside towns look the same, proper mountains are in Wales and Scotland so overall diversity isn't great. Oh and if you do want to go somewhere nice, you have about 95% of possibility of getting drenched.
Not to mention that should you want to visit any of your neighbours on the mainland you don't have that many to choose from.
British doctors very good? that's a good one! Last year when i've had pneumonia and was coughing my guts out, one of the symptoms was that i was very weak and dizzy. I was told to lie down and take paracetamol which is definitely no. 1 drug in UK and heals all sort of things. If it wouldn't be for me going to visit family at that time and being checked by a doctor in Warsaw, i would probably end up in the hospital or something and get MRSA to top it off.
As for a pound dropping in value, i couldn't care less as i didn't come here to work my guts out.
I moved here for a woman and because i was sick of England
i am now on my own, but i will stay here i really like it
