Travel / Would I have to worry about organ thieves when traveling into Poland alone? [36]

Well, I think its you who need a new brain

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

I'm Polish- American and I love my adopted country like I never felt about my birth-country...Poland.
I admire Americans for their hard work, sense of humor, respect to each other, ingenuity...and on and on...
I felt extremely lucky to have a privilege to live here, to work, to be a part of this wonderful Country.
Most polish immigrants, legally here, feels alike. Chicago or Greenpoint is unique ....unfortunatelly in negative sense.

Life / You are Polish if... [433]

Yep...now I know.

Food / Hawaiian Kona coffee to buy in Warsaw [12]

I'm from California too. Real, 100% Kona coffee or this typical from Honolulu 10%?
When I go to any country I'm trying to taste local food. In case of coffee I checked many coffee shops in Gdansk-Sopot-Gdynia and I fond maybe 2 places with really good coffee. Maybe Warszawa is better.

Love / Amount of money for gift (I have a girlfriend in Poland) [56]

Sounds to me you like her as much as you like a couple of pizzas.
She would be better off alone.

Genealogy / Born in Poland, moved to US as a baby - What do i need to get a PL passport? [19]

You really puzzle me. Why you want to go back to Poland. I can understand going for vacations...but permanently????
USA gives us unlimited opportunity. I came to USA not speaking one English word and now...life is beter than I could ever imagined. My son ( about your age) has great a carrier , satisfaction etc he could never dream to have in PL.

Majority preferred to go to USA. You go in opposite direction...funny.

Calliegal235 , your post are pretty amazing. It takes an American loving Polish man and being open minded to have your perspective and understanding of PL.

I was born there so maybe I'm less objective but reading your post I found myself agreeing pretty much on 100% with you.
I'm nTuralized Californian too ( probably like your husband) I love this land, I love the climate, variety of ...everything. From extreme temps ( Death Valley) to everlasting snow ( Lassen Park and other) . I'll never get used to beauty of San Jacinto Mtn covered with snow while I'm sunbathing under the palm trees...etc. Maybe if I'd be living in the North States I'd thnk differently about PL?

Who knows?

News / What part of Poland's image do you think is the most exportable? [90]

What about white eagle , patatoe and sausage ...together

Love / Polish wife making more money than husband - does it bother you? [20]

Nothing wrong with that. In my profession ( RN ) most of my female -friends are making more than their husbands, boyfriends. I still like to have a husband making more....

Hate...its a strong word. I came to USA 23 years ago and I fell in love with Americans. Fantastic people. i wish my co-patriots would be a little like them. Polish people are getting better but they still have a long way to go in terms of tolerance, sense of humor, everyday strength and courage , optimism.

Love / Prevention of child abduction by Polish mother. [232]

This child is gone. Next one do right...get married, take care of it...check DNA

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

Very interesting! I can't even imagine going back to PL?!
I left PL 30 years ago and it was best decision I've ever made. Still, I see some people changed their mind.
Good luck!
