Love / Do Polish women talk too much? [74]

I just mean that it don't matter where you are from. There are people of every type no matter where you go.

I did sales in the US before and have dealt with just about every type of person you can imagine. White, black, Asian, Indian, off the boat European, etc............. and found everyone is the same.

It just depends on the individual person.

Love / Do Polish women talk too much? [74]

Travel / My visit to Poland - Likes & Dislikes. [137]

What a load of BS.

I am on my second time of living in Poland. Is it new? No! Is it gritty, Yes! To me that is a big part of the charm. I am not from a fake city like LA. I am from the rust-belt city of Detroit and maybe that's why I feel right at home.

I don't expect people to speak English or kiss my rear end. I have found the people here to bend over backwards to help, much different then my Germany trips.

There is beauty everywhere, sometimes you just haveto look.

Life / Polish "prog" music? I'd be interested to know about bands etc. [30]

Life / What is Nowy Sacz like? [26]

I might try and attend the Uni. My friend from Zielona Gora traded some teaching and lessons for working on his doctorate. I might try to do the same with my MBA.

I haven't skied in ages. The last time I hurt my knee a bit :-(

Maybe I will try to snow shoe.

Life / What is Nowy Sacz like? [26]

I'm not a night owl or a bar fly. I don't really know anyone close either. I have one friend in Krakow. I had something set up in Zielona Gora but it fell through.

Life / What is Nowy Sacz like? [26]

It looks much prettier then Lubin. I would be teaching near the rynek.

Life / Cannabis / Weed in Poland... How much does marijuana cost per gram and how easy is to get it? [355]

NO, I don't drink or smoke or do any other drug.

After living in active addiction for years I can say that it's all bad.

I don't know of anyone who stopped that will say living in addiction is pleasurable or good.

The freedom to be an idiot! That's what choosing to use is.

Life / Cannabis / Weed in Poland... How much does marijuana cost per gram and how easy is to get it? [355]

It should be illegal. Maybe its not as physically addicting as some drugs but it is still addicting.

What makes it dangerous is people don't deal with their issues and try to escape from everything.

It's not freedom to use drugs!!!!

Life / POLISH MYTHS - let's debunk or prove them! [140]


I found this to be very true. Its amazing how many people thought the US is paved with gold. Right now, Poland is a better place for me then where I live. In Poland, I would have work. The official unemployment where I live is 14%. I think it's actually much higher.

Love / Ten things to remember when you have a Polish girlfriend [79]

My gf's mom loves me. However, my gf is considered old for an unmarried woman and that might have something to do with it.

I don't care if my gf takes my food. As good of a cook as I am she is even better. She will turn it into something good.

USA, Canada / The proper behavior an American should show when visiting Poland [115]

If you go into a shop always grab a basket. I was refused service once and I couldn't understand what the lady was saying. She went and got me a basket and then she would help me.

Food / Does beer have any "real" expire date? [39]

The hops in the beer end up degrading. Since the style of a Weiss is usually under hopped it will probably taste ok. More hops would have meant more change in flavor. Less hops would mean less change of flavor. However, hops are a preservative, so, who knows!

Maybe he is an alcoholic. However, he has to decide that he is.

Language / Do Poles prefer US American or UK English language? [147]

They are both 2 sides of the same coin.
