That is why most people die in Poland before they are fifty.

you're still alive and kicking and talking crap as usual, some things never change lol

I once liked Poland, but do not so much anymore. Poland was unique, but now it is just another country in Europe. It used to be that Poland was a place that no one wanted to go to. Now many want to go because it's something bizarre to do. Warsaw is a dump with gray old blocks running for miles. I remember a flat in Warsaw that I lived in, a gray old building with cold damp walls, a tiny bathroom, the tram ran by the window so close that the building shook. They wanted to sell it...for $150,000. The building was ready to collapse. It is still for sale and has been for several years. In 2000 you could have bought it for $20k.

Yes I had a life in Poland once a long time ago, but it was a pieced together life. I remember that the sun never shined when I lived in Warsaw. It smelled like urine everywhere I went. I loved Poland for my wife and the friends I had there. Now, not so much.

Michal

These naive English people want to visit Poland and try and depend on the Polish welfare state and see the reaction then. All this romantic nonsense about lovely fields and smiling folk-of course they smile, after all, you are there to spemd your money after opening up your wallet!

I do very well in Poland
Though thanks for your concern, it really is comical.

Poland is a great country for business (once you learn the kickback culture)

If you were not writing drivel here you'd probably enjoy it more too!

I love Poland because the society is demonstrating a wish and ability to change, to modernize itself remaining conservative in particular cultural subjects (religion, historical). That's what I like most about Poland and that's what I wish more for my fellow Ukrainians.

I was born in Philadelphia USA but all eight of my great grandparents emigrated to Philadelphia from Poland so many years ago (early 1900's ????). Therefore I have 100% Polish Kielbasa blood flowing through my veins. Actually I probably have more love for Poland than I do for the USA. Probably because so many people in Poland have the same blood as I. I'm the third generation born here in the States. My parents grew up in a Polish section of Philadelphia called Bridesburg. No need to speak English because the churches, stores, etc were all full of Polish speaking people. A nice little neighborhood with clean streets and neat little row homes. My grandmother, though born in Bridesburg, didn't learn to speak English until she was 13 years old when she had to leave home to find a job to support the family. My grandfather began working when he was four or five years old helping a huckster (a fruit and vegetable seller on a horse and wagon. He only went to sixth grade but he was educated in "the school of hard knocks" as he would so often tell me. I used to love the Polish weddings when I was a boy. Lots of food and good Polka music. It was a wonderful time although I probably didn't appreciate it like I should have. In summary Poland is my blood, my history, my love. I plan to return there to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ if Lord willing I return there one day after I retire from work. I'm 51 and hope to get over there within six or seven years. Maybe I'll meet a cute Polska gal and we'll Polka down the church aisle together in holy dread lock.

If I really wrote everything I liked about Poland I think the site would crash. However, I will give a short list (I'm probably leaving out about 6900 things here).

1) The football team
2) The ~y women
3) Warsaw's buildings
4) The Flag
5) The hatred for russia
6) Radwanska sisters
7) Gdansk's flowiness next to the sea.
8) Donald Tusk
9) Jakub Blaszczykowski
10) Any other flowy football player playing in Poland or on the national team.
11) The Polish language
12) Pierogi
13) Kielbasa
14) All other Polish food that flows (which is all of it)

etc.
