Life / Second hand stores in Wroclaw? [7]

more clues please. it must be more than 1km from rynek to arkady.

Didn't realize it was so far, seems like a pretty quick walk. It is before the Opera, across the from Diesel store if I remember correctly.

Hey! there is a chain of thrift stores with a Koala bear for the logo.. there is one on Swidnicka on the left hand side if you are walking from Rynek to Arkady.

Law / Visa Stamp if you overstay (American with a Polish Wife) [29]

It does not sound right to me either, but I have no realistic choice at this point. Time has run out and I am waiting on a work permit.

I went there hoping they could file an extension of some kind, but this was their only brilliant plan. I talked to consulates in DC and Warsaw and both said to contact the UW office in my city. UW gave me an application for residency and said to save my receipts.

To my understanding, the only thing I could possibly do to avoid becoming "illegal" by Polish law is to leave for three months before the 90 days runs out and then return and start over.

Law / Visa Stamp if you overstay (American with a Polish Wife) [29]

I just wanted to update that I am in a similar situation. I am still waiting on a work permit from an employer that is dragging his feet and my 90 day tourist expires very soon. I went to office in Wroclaw yesterday to find out my options and they said that for US citizens all I need to do is leave Poland (to any other country) for 1 day, save my receipts, and come back. It seems like risky business to me, but they said its not a problem as long as I have a receipt with my name on it.

Life / Blood donation in Poland [21]

I was interested in donating blood in Wroclaw and was unable to. The facility said that unless I was able to speak and read polish I could not file out the necessary forms or speak with the nurse. They would not allow translation and did not have english versions : /

Love / American woman falls in love with a charming Polish man upon his visit to the U.S. [36]

Sojourn

Is it common for Polish men to ignore women they are not interested in?

I don't believe this is a strictly Polish trait. You met a man on a hiking trip and then dreamt about starting a new life life with him? In another country? Was the connection reeeeally strong enough to justify emailing him for four months without a reply?? This all sounds a little crazy...
