Moving to Krakow from London, worrying about finding a job [16]
Hello, this is my first on this website and it would be great to get some replies.
I am planning to move over to Krakow in the next few months from London.
Although I am originally from Belfast, Ireland I have been living away from home for seven years, so i am not really worried about relocating and meeting new people. I already know a few Polish people.
I am worried about finding work though. It seems that every person from an English speaking country does a TEFL course and becomes a teacher!! Although I have heard it is financially rewarding I would like to know what the other options are. I am a fully qualified Journalist here in the UK, are their any English language media sources in Poland? I also have a law degree but not being a trained lawyer in the UK i dont thinkk I would be able to work in Poland.
How much will a studio flat in a decent area cost me. I know living with people is a cheaper option but i have done the houseshare thing for ages. I also want a bit of space for me and the ladyfriend. Realistically what can i expect to live off? I dont mind living cheaply but the odd piwo is a must. Also what are Polish landlords generally like about having puppies on their property.
Do you think i will have any problems because I am from the north of Ireland? I know some Polish people were treated horribly by some protestants in Belfast. Will i be subject to abuse because of this?
Also does anybody know a good boxing club in Krakow??
