I had the chance to visit Poland, along with Czech Republic, Austria, Germany and Hungary. Of all places Poland was the best. I loved the country, it is so beautiful, if I had a chance i would be back to live there in a heartbeat.

tander: if I had a chance i would be back to live there in a heartbeat Why not then? It's definitely way easier for you to move to Poland than a Pole to move to the US. At least I think so.

Oh because my family lives here, I don't know the language, no job, money there's lots of reasons.

I am in the same boat. My wife is from Poland and although my kids were born and raised in the U.S., the speak fluent Polish. I'm the only one that is laungage challenged! Of all the European countries I've been to, I have to say that I love Poland. Not sure if the fact that my family can speak the language adds to that or not, but I do know I have more fun there than anyplace else. We will probably never move there full time, but I'd like to have a place that I can call home at least part of the year - we're working on that now... -Scott

CashCache: we're working on that now... Which part of PL? Randal: Why do you say? Visa. Horrible (Gestapo like) treatment while becoming an US resident. I really do NOT believe PL uses same methods toward ANYbody who wants to live in PL. I might be wrong, though. Any thoughts?

Well, part of the problem is our stupid affirmative action-esque immigration policy which dictates how many of each nationality are permitted to enter each year to accommodate someone’s notion of an ideal “balance” in the name of engineered “diversity”. Such social engineering in policy is utter BS as this leads to equal numbers of, umm… good immigrants along with the not so good ones –producers and consumers. Don’t get me wrong, I feel strongly that there needs to be some regulation and some numbers should be limited. But this policy treats everyone as equal value, except when some politico decides to manipulate it in order to grant additional favor to certain nationalities. Everything that smells of socially engineered affirmative action ends up being misused and abused and leads to things like discrimination –which such policies are supposed to prevent in the first place.

Easy_Terran: I really do NOT believe PL uses same methods toward ANYbody who wants to live in PL. There's a terrible red-tape and there's lot of ill-will from an average biurwa. You're more likely to encounter procedures lasting for months, and even years with different excuses (read: $hit) given you by different immigration officers.

Easy_Terran: Which part of PL? We like Krakow the best, but about the only larger city I spent anytime in where I would not want to live was Warsaw. Just too busy for us. We spend a lot of time in walbrzych too. Randal: Where did you meet your wife? In the U.S. or in PL? I met her in the U.S. She was a permanent resident when I met her and is now a citizen. We go back to Poland as often as we can. The kids really like it too. However, they are getting older and I expect to get some pushback from them at sometime. Not because they don't like being there, but my boys are starting to have Girl Firends now, and well, you know how that goes.... My kids are (two boys) 14, 12 and (and my daughter) 10. By the way... We are planning on staying 6 weeks this summer and I'd like to find a flat to rent in Krakow to see if I like living in teh city as much as I like visiting. I've looked around on this forum for rental companies, but I'm having trouble finding one that can rent short term for a decent price. If anyone knows of a site or person that may be able to help, that would be great.

(gasp!) You're living the life I should be living! You're living my life! I want it back!

We all have choices, Randal. Make it happen. Poland is ripe for the creative mind to carve out niches and opportunities. The key is, as I see it, that it's not what you know but who you know. Those who leave for pastures new gain invaluable experience but re-integration involves set-up costs and a few strokes of luck.
