Love / Are Polish men handsome to you? [182]

I love their eyes and I also love the fact that they're real man with a real body type. They look like they eat, sleep, work, work out,... Don't give me sixpack, give me healthy and average. PLUS they are true gentlemen, they don't even have to fake that. Their personalities are very different from the ones I'm used to in Belgium.

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4501]

Someone probably already asked but this topic has just too many pages...

What about Wójcik?

I was adopted so I accidently got my name spelled wrong on my ID. I grew up with my name being 'Wojcik' and I learned it that way. Later ofcourse, I found out it should be Wójcik because my mother's name is also Wójcik (got her last name) and people told me that's the right form.

Life / Bad Polish mothers [34]

My (Polish!) mother gave me up for adoption. As a little girl I couldn't understand it and I sometimes talked about her like she was evil. I also acted like I didn't care. Since I'm 15 years old the vision changed and all of it began to matter. At age of 17 they gave me a letter she left when she left me.

I can't compare adoption with killing your child ofcourse but trust me,
it's not about the Polish-ness.

Genealogy / Find my Polish roots (Poland-Belgium) [4]

Oh god...
Do Polish people feel offended if I don't write the names of the cities right?
I guess I'll just write it the Polish way...

Warszawa, Kraków, Poznań and Gdańsk.

Genealogy / Find my Polish roots (Poland-Belgium) [4]

Hi!

I am a Polish girl living in Belgium. I just turned eighteen last friday. The only thing I wanted since I was sixteen years old is to discover more about my roots. You see, I was adopted. My biological mother came to Belgium to give birth to me and she gave me up for adoption. The only thing I got from her is her nationality and her last name. I never saw her because I've never met her. But my search isn't over. I'm actually not desperate to find her, it just would be very nice to meet her or some family one day because some days it's SO frustrating I don't know anyone. It feels VERY lonesome sometimes...

Meanwhile I would love to learn Polish. I'm always proud to say I'm a Pole but I'm also ashamed to admit I can't speak a word of Polish. Ofcourse I know a few words an expressions but that's just not enough for me. In august, I'll be making my first trip to Poland. It will be a mini-roadtrip and I'm already so excited. But yes, I want more. I would love to have some Polish friends who could help me with the language and discovering the culture. My dream is to have a little life in Poland. With that, I don't mean I want to move to Poland immediately but I would love to be in Poland from time to time to visit people I know there.

So if anyone is willing to help, I'm all ears and I'll try to be a great student!

Thanks for reading this message already!
