Travel / Regular UK visitor to Krakow - How to meet people and make friends? [56]

It's a tricky one. In my experience most Polish people don't tend to socialize in pubs like people do in the UK, they usually go round to each other's homes. People in pubs in Krakow tend to be either very young, heavy drinkers, or tourists (it's a winning combination!).

I live in Krakow. Next time you're coming over me and my girlfriend could maybe show you a couple of places in Kazimierz.

Life / Popular Polish blog and chat sites [65]


Funny you should ask, I've been writing a blog about my experiences of living in Poland:
batorego.wordpress.com

I've been looking, but I haven't come across many others in English (not particularly surprising I suppose). There is also:
polishpress.wordpress.com

which is a very interesting roundup of Polish news stories translated into English.

As inkrakow has already pointed out, these are also interesting:
threemonkeysonline.com/blogs/grodsk
beatroot.blogspot.com

although they are both heavily political.

I'd love to hear about some more 'personal experience' blogs if anyone comes across them.
