Is it just me that gets excited whenever someone from a different country talks about your culture

[@Stormchantress]

0. Yeah, we still can't get over being under the Soviet regime so we're really sensitive about that. But an even greater DON'T is saying "Polish concentration camps". Other than actual slurs, that's probably the worst thing you can say in front of a Polish person. No, it's probably even worse than slurs. 1. More of a superstition actually (people believe it's bad luck) and a habit built upon it. Even Poles tend to forget about it from time to time :) 2. YES!! We feel awkward walking in our shoes inside someone's home and we find it rude when someone does. There are exceptions though. Usually, when you come as a contractor to get some work (plumbing etc) done, you're allowed to leave your shoes on. Also, some hosts might tell you specifially to leave your shoes on because they haven't washed their floors in a while and/or don't have any slippers to spare. 3. We've over the moon whenever a foreigner makes an attempt to speak Polish. Sadly, linguistic education is far from perfect in Polish schools, so while many people understand it fairly well, they are too self-conscious to actually speak it. If you want your English to be understood, make sure you speak super-slow and super-clearly, without any slang, more towards a slightly formal language, as this is what we mostly learn at school. Btw. the way to say "please" in Polish is "proshe-w" ("e" pronounced as in "bed"; "w" is often dropped). 4. It's only cheap when you don't earn in PLN :( Compared to income, it's actually more expensive than the US. 5. A regulation introduced to reduce misdemeanour under influence. You can go around this law by pouring your booze into an inconspicuous container. 6. Most ATMs give out 20s. Also, nowadays you can pay by credit or debit card pretty much everywhere, so unless you know you might end up in a place where you'll specifically need cash (e.g. a Christmass fair, a bazaar, a place with small tourist stalls), you don't usually bother to carry more than 50PLN on you. Contrary to the US, we don't have to build our credibility to receive a card - you get a debit card automatically as soon as you open your bank account, so non-cash payments are really widespread. Solves the "smaller bills" problem :) 7. I think it depends on where you eat. Fancy restaurants and cafes - sure, but bistros etc. don't demand a tip. 8. I know A LOT of tardy Poles and it drives me crazy :) Facilities always open and close on time, as do shops. 9. Debatable. Maybe it's because I'm Southern Polish, but I like Prague a lot more than Cracow. And you forgot to mention (visit?) Podlasie with it's Białowieża Primordial Forest which is an absolute gem and needs more publicity before the government destroys it :( 10. Until recently we didn't have as many cars as western countries so, yeah, public transport is quite well-developped in urban areas. Good look in the countryside, though :D

Well, it depends. I feel like not giving any tip is sign that i'm not really satisfied with service. for example, BAZYLISZEK restaurant located in Warsaw Old Town- Waiter will greet you with a cherry alcohol shot. They are polite and hospitable as fucc, i would feel extremply awful not to tip.

Spent a week in Warsaw just before Covid - almost accidentally (long story). My wife and I just fell in love with the city. We stayed in a beautiful hotel a couple of hundred yards outside the city gates. We dined every night in that square - a wonderful experience sat out till midnight in complete safety. Armed police patrolling the whole time, didn't see any drunks or anti-social behaviour and everyone we spoke with were happy we had made the effort to see their city. The museums were outstanding and we can recommend the free walks around the city. Did a couple under the guidance of "Bart". He enjoyed the walks almost as much as we did and his pride in the city shone through. At some point we will return to Warsaw for sure.

The first time I visited Poland, was on holidays back in 1970, when I was 8 years old. We kept going back because, yes, at the time it was cheap and the people were incredibly friendly. Once I reached the age of 16 and got my own passport, we stopped as you had to pay for a visa per passport. We kept in contact, though, with many people we had met and once the iron curtain went down, visits went back and forth. I'm Dutch, but I can still speak a bit of Polish as I learned the basics at a young age 🙂 It's quite fun to say 'dzien dobry' to someone getting out of a car with Polish license plates here in Amsterdam.

[@MartyMcflyWorld]

Great video my friend! I had seen your video before my trip to Krakow and it was really helpful! Congrats!!!

[@anabellik]

The fact that Poland is cheap might be nice for tourists. For us, it's rather depressing, because for people who actually live and work here, Poland is expensive, and going abroad is always super expensive. So, another don't: Don't mention that you find Poland cheap, don't boast about what you can afford. It makes Polish people upset.

[@rbp8965]

Yes I just got back from Poland with my partner (she is polish) I was shocked by how cheap it was but she made it very clear that it is actually very expensive for anyone in Poland without a really good job. The one thing that really shocked me was when we passed a beautiful what had to be 6 or 7 Bedroom House in the center of a Large Town/ Small City in Southern Poland, her Brother told me it had just sold for over 400,000 zl which would not get you a house/ bungalow of any size or description where we live. Also having traveled very extensively and regularly across Europe by car for most of my life the other thing that shocked me was how in many ways Poland is way more Modern than France, Italy the UK and Ireland especially when you go into what you would expect to be more rural areas. I have a feeling in my gut that Poland is about to Boom big time economically, it has a good standard of education, most of its younger people speak at least 2 languages and it had a feeling of a place where stuff was happening and about to happen on a much larger scale. Actually reminded me of my own Country when I was younger and it was going through an Economic Boom, fingers crossed your Politicians don't squander it like ours.

Since having a Polish partner for a couple years, I've been grinding to learn the language and it's easily the most difficult one I've ever tried to learn. I'm really glad no matter what village or city in Poland, I've only been met with patience trying to vocalise what I need without people switch to English. It really helped learning the language to the point I can now get around in the country (still using a lot of gestures and butchered grammar) and talk with her family. It's really fun to be able to communicate with anyone and everyone rather than only store owners and museum staff :-). It's also funny how often I get a comment about my accent, never in a negative way but because a lot of people never heard a Dutch native speak Polish I think. I never gave the country a second thought before meeting her, but now I visit the country during all my holidays and sometimes an extended weekend or two. It became a bit of a second home, truly a big and beautiful country and a lot to explore. 10/10 would recommend visiting if you haven't yet!
