Classifieds / Language exchange group, Tricity [60]

It's not quite so formal, usually most people speak in English, then if someone wants to try Polish for example, they break off and talk. But it's definitely a sympathetic environment for it. The only thing usually pre-arranged is if we have a "guest language". Last night was Swedish. But then the Swedish guy didn't turn up, so it was a bit more about socialising.

Last night was huge - at least 50 people!

The LE is every week, Thursday from 1900. They don't bother to post it as an event because it's.. every week.

"Directions:
Get off on Sopot Wyscigi skm stop, cross the railway over the bridge and turn right, you need to go along the rail to the go-kart center. There is the pub and restaurant Instytut Spraw Wszelakich."

The ESG has less frequent events, last night was one, perogi in Gdańsk. Their ones are always listed in their events. If you join these groups you will find out more.

You never looked on Facebook for this sort of group? There is a very large language exchange group that meets every Thursday night in Sopot, usually at least 20, sometimes up to 50.

And an English speaker group that meets a bit less often:

Law / Opening a Polish Bank Account by a foreigner in Poland. Recommendations. [299]

Hi
You would probably like Millennium, their internet portal is in English, and considering I have PLN, EUR and CHF accounts with them I am sure you would be able to get USD. Plus they have branches all over Poland.

When I first came to Poland I had an assistant service (Euro-VA) review all the major banks assessing fees, currency possibilites, if they had English on the internet site etc, Millennium came out the best. Also when I go into the branches I often find English speakers.

In fact I later opened a company account with them, so now have both Personal and Company.

Hope that helps
