gmonty: Hello from Sydney

Hello,

I'm a 29 year old Australian living in Sydney, my mother is Polish, and I came across this site whilst looking for general information on the property market in Poland as I need to sell a family property. On another note I am wanting to learn more about Polish culture and Polish history to get more in touch with my roots. I have been reading a lot lot about the Polish Resistance during WWII and I am very proud of the way the Poles stood their ground.

I am really glad to have found this fantastic resource and online community.

Regards

Guy

Welcome and good luck.

Thanks for your messages. If anyone needs to know anything about Sydney let me know.

Not as many Polish people :-)

i will have to google that after work.

you are right, Victoria has the highest population of Poles:

hello there, went to oz last year and loved every minute. great outdoors and friendly people.

I did a bit of web-surfing on Poles in OZ. There are several large Polish communities in Melbourne, Victoria but as far as Sydney goes the main community is centered around the suburb of Ashfield but that may be mainly more the older generation.

Here is a little article of the history of Polish people in Victoria:

Here is one of the Victorian Polish Organisations:
