Travel / How much money required for 6 days stay in Warsaw ? [6]


wow yea i guess i forgot to take into account that Warsaw is a bit more expensive than Krakow.

But lets be honest, the guy is coming for a conference from India no offense, but i work with Indians everyday and they live a fairly simple life (without alcohol) so with that in mind i believe he'll be just fine on 500ZL

Travel / How much money required for 6 days stay in Warsaw ? [6]

Since your airflight and accomendations are already paid for you can just bring 500ZL in cash and you'll be good.

Travel / Hard Candy - Krakow, Poland - reviews? [131]

Why is it that polish people on this forum ALWAYS has to bash so hard on tourist posting about bad experinces in Poland?
Y'all make it sound like it was their own fault, even though people sometimes just enter a random bar to get a brew and thats it!

There is something wrong with moral of some people on this forum!

Genealogy / Trying to find info on Pod Kopcem in Krakow - dom dziecka children house (orphanage) [30]

You'll probably have a hard time finding to much information on the web about these kind of things.

Best would be to take a travel to Krakow combine a holiday with some family search and see what you can figure out.

Due to your age and everything im sure they'll still have all the journals, so in case your trying to locate your birth mother I believe you have a pretty good shot at it.

Best of luck!

Travel / Hard Candy - Krakow, Poland - reviews? [131]

I really think its sad that Krakow still has these places!

They had a Hard Candy in Tallin in Estonia for some time also, they did the exact same thing. Case is, in Tallin atleast when the local autorities was informed they shut down the joint.

And thats exactly what they should do with the one in Krakow, it hurts the city's credibillity pretty hard having such scum places.

Life / Moving to Poland Part-Time (probably Katowice) [56]

If i were you i would not want to move to Katowice. Its like PIP said an idustrial hole, with rough neigberhoods and not in my opinion a very pleasent place for expants.

Forget managers, they dont have the IT skills. I work in Capgemini, and i know for a fact that being a manager is low paid compared to the lots of hours they work.

But Capgemini would on the other hand pay this amount of money for a person with the proper skills in a system like SAP.

But yea in case this offer i true, he should just start making a biding war betweem the big outsourcing places in this city and see who will be able to pay him the most.

Work / Cost of Living, Average Salaries and Job sites in Poland [263]

I agree, i would rather have that salary in Krakow than 8000 EUR in Denmark where they then cut 62% taxes.

Regarding the company i wouldnt be surprised if it was for one of the Majors like Capgemini, or HCL.

Work / Cost of Living, Average Salaries and Job sites in Poland [263]


Its true that this does sound like an extremely good salary (especially in Krakow)
But case is the guy is working with SAP, all the outsourching businesses in Krakow uses this system so they need good professional people who knows this system, and can help them improve using it.

So 18600 pr. month doesnt sounds that crazy, there is a big demand for people with these skills in this city.
But ill def agree with you that he should take the job, and that him and his family can live a very good life here on this salary.


They offer is good here in Krakow!
But in case you were to work in Warsaw, i woulnt accept this offer.

Since I have no idea which country you come from ill just tell you that if you worked in Denmark or another nordic country, your salary being a SAP tech-functional consultant your salary would be nothing less than 8000 EUR groos pr. month

Work / Cost of Living, Average Salaries and Job sites in Poland [263]


Well in that case you can live very cheap.
An apartment will cost you like 2500PLN pr month, around 80-100 Square meters. Food for your and your family will be no more than 1500 PLN pr month.

So together those things will be 4000PLN pr month, and your net salary would be something like 13.000 PLN net pr month give or take a few hundred.

Then you will have 8000PLN after food and rent is paid pr. month to have fun, buy clothes, save, etc. + your bonus.

But seeing that you are working with SAP (i assume then that your a SAP consultant) correct?
Then this salary really isnt that attractive.

18600 Gross pr. month in Krakow is a very good salary, and you will for sure have money to save!

Travel / Which SIMcard to buy in Poland for two week usage [11]

Thanks for the tip, i was not aware of this.

Travel / Which SIMcard to buy in Poland for two week usage [11]

True, play is horrible if you just move a litte bit outside of cities.

Travel / Which SIMcard to buy in Poland for two week usage [11]

Just pay a PLAY 5zl prepaid sim card, and then Charge it with 10ektra zl, and then you will be good.

You can buy it in many stores, just ask some people around you once you arrive.
Just know that there are no mini simcards (like those you use in the new iphones etc.) which can be bought as prepaid.
