I was in Portsmouth today and the place is full of Poles. If Poland is so nice and their future is so guaranteed then why have 400,000 decided to up and leave? There must be something well and truly wrong with the place!

nothing wrong with the place michal

just they want to earn more than what wages are in Poland currently and therir government have already stated it would take upto 10 years to have western wage standards in Poland.

Doncaster has a pop. of approx 300,000 people and about 5-7,000 unofficial figures are Polish ... but we have Russians ... Czechs ... Slovaks .. Kosvans ... Albanians ... Indians ... Muslims ... Chinese .. Mongolians ... English ... all living here

so rather diverse in my opinion.

But i aim to move to Poland in next couple of years anyways .... and just come here for holiday and family/friends :P

personally, I thought that Poland was an awful place. There must be something there for you that drives you in to going there as you have no Polish blood yourself (or at least, that is what I imagine from your posts). Why not Australia-nice beaches, good beer, nice people, free Neighbours seven days a week! Why Poland where you do not even know the language and everybody is fleeing? The outlook is bleak in weather and economic terms. I would rather go to Wales with all those lovely old castles and scenery. Do you have immediate family there?

DO YOU ALWAYS LIKE TO PULL PEOPLE DOWN ... i have been learning the language almost ONE YEAR and you state i dont know the LANGUAGE .. well excuse me MR I AM SO FULL OF MYSELF THAT ONE DAY I WILL HIT THE GROUND HARD ... but it takes longer than ONE YEAR to learn ANY LANGUAGE

If you cannot be constructive in your postings can you not bother to post at all thanks kindly.

Funny as we were walking back to town and we went through a lovely park called the Victoria Park and we were behind two Poles. One rather short wearing a shirt with Polish writing on it and another huge tall with long hair, a very odd couple indeed. I though to myself then, 'God, what sort of woman could give birth to such creatures!' Certainly, Portsmouth has changed a lot since my undergraduate days in that fine city all those years ago.

just north of Oswiecim there is Katowice and a big amount of cities which form a massive agglomeration , this area is highly industrialized (used to be coal mainly ) , so there you can look for work and its a good area...

Everyone hold a different oppinion for all sorts of reasons.

I love Poland. I have lived in several other countries in my life and I always feel my country is really my home (Poland). My life in Poland is always filled with more happiness than sadness. More luck and success.

But that is my life. That is my experience. My opinon is Poland is a beautiful country with lots of hidden things waiting to be seen and offered. But My suggestion is, go there first, see how you feel. Go for extended period of time. If possible find contracted work of year or two to be able to really experience working-life and life on day-day basis.

Whatever your exerpience will be within this time frame, that is the base of your judgement to give you a decision of whether Poland is the country for you to move to. Not every place is perfect for everyone, but how great it is to experience the world anway.

Best of luck to everyone wanting to move to Poland. I hope your experiences in my country will be as wonderful for you as they are for me.

skills you shoudn't have any problem finding a good job in Krakow(i think it's quite close to oswiecim).this is a big and fast developing city in southern poland with a great number of english,american , german and probably..spanish companies.

Hey i married a polish girl too, i have a nice home in the Country....polish government however are a little bit strict on giving up land to a non pole but it's workable...Warsaw has lots to offer depends on what business you do.

I live in Poland but work all over Europe....i am English but i am ashamed to be just that. Poland for me is a much better place to live your life than the britian of today

But its easy to find work in poland as someone from the uk ? I was born in germany and I spent last year completley in poland and so i can speak a bit of polish aswell. In the area (mazury) which i was in, it was quite useful to know german and english because of the tourists. I want to find some summer work for inbetween my studies next year and was wondering if anyone knew how to get started, I was thinking about asking for work on a couple of campsites.

shelly: what would it be like for a irish person to get a job than's Sorry to say to you shelly it will be very hard, unless of course you are a prostitute. Poland is a closed shop for foreigners and even if you got a job it would only pay 1200zl a month.

Guest	Oct 30, 08, 15:09 #82
I am also thinking of moving to Poland. Is 3000-3500zl a month a decent wage? Is it easy to find accomodation in Krakow? Thanks

Guest: Is 3000-3500zl a month a decent wage? no.... or maybe in small towns. Decent wage in Warsaw/Cracov for typical person would be 4000-5000 net.

Kurde... I'm thinking about moving to PL myself! After reading this, I just want to go there even more. I'm in the US, have been living amongst Pole's my whole life, I know the language enough not to get lost and order food, shop, etc and I'm sure I'll i'd pick it up once I got there and submersed myself in the culture.

Why do I want to go there? I have no freaking Idea... What do I want to do when I get there? Stop chasing the dollar and start living life. My intentions are to either open up a bar/lounge/restaurant/club or engage in some niche entrepreneurship consulting.

Maybe if more people like Casper and myself moved to Poland we could generate our own markets and cultivate a new mentality. The poles are good at heart and have not had it easy - EVER. I think they are hungry for new ideas and mixing of cultures but they are, like many people - afraid of change and the unknown.

Randolph,

If you ever find your way to PL, gimme a hollar. I just moved to Poznan from South Texas a couple of months ago and have been gathering my thoughts around creating something along the lines of your ideas for a venture. It's a young town, perfect for someone to bring something fresh and innovative to the table. And if someone on the forum could please correct me if I'm wrong, but the area is ripe and opening up to entrepreneurship. I've heard it's becoming easier and quicker (paperwork) to get such things going here. Then again, I've only been here for two months. So please, someone, enlighten me.

First round's on me. Juan.

No, you're certainly not wrong. Poznań is wide open for something different - the amount of those 'Sphinx' restaurants around the place should tell you everything you need to know. I'll drop you a PM, there's some things that you should definitely think about.

Is teaching English the only way for a foreigner to work in Poland?

I'd like to move to Poland. Maybe teaching Italian?
