Would you live in Shanghai now? Shame on you.
Poland is amazing!!! I love it..im often there many kisses from Greece!
I would love to travel other countries after the pandemic in the future, and Poland is a great country to visit.💕
you definitely should! there are so many nice places to visit in Poland :)
Why not?Poland is beautiful,very clean and firendly people,good food.And especially for me since i am from Serbia,i am slavic as well and we Serbs love Poland and Polish people.I have visited many times and thinking of settling down in Poland after i finish working on cruise ships.Much love and Slawa rodu.
you are very welcome in Poland, we need people like you 🎉🎉🎉
I'm a french guy coming to live in Poland next year, so excited by Warszawa it looks so beautiful especially the Lazienki park
Lazienki are beautiful :)
so you life in Poland now?
not yet :/ @@maqic1979
Pros and cons about living in Poland coming coming from someone who grew up in Poland and lived there for quite a while. Pros: very hospitable people who will invite you home and give everything they have to make feel welcome. Cons: some Poles can feel down about themselves when comparing to the West of Europe which is not deserved since they are hard-working, well educated , and very resilient folks.💪
Warsaw looks like it has nice places to dine out and do about anything. I put this city on my travel bucket list.
The desire to "live in Poland... being Polish" XD it might sound silly... but it really resonates with me as well. :) As another person (with Polish roots) who moved around a lot and never got to experience feeling "local" and more specifically, feeling Polish/knowing what the everyday is like here... I also never felt comfortable telling people I was from this place. Cheers to repatriating a bit :'D and thanks for the video
feel free to be proud be polish, check polish history it will help you very much
Being a Pole (living in Warsaw), I am among those called upon by Kaja to name one positive side of living in Poland, and one negative. Not easy, as many pros and... quite a few cons come to my mind. So I gave it a while of thought to select one leading pro, and one single con that most annoys me. Here we go. PRO: Warsaw (and Poland overall, I think) is a truly livable place. CON: dangerous speeding on Polish roads.
I do agree - Poland is amazing! The country is so diversified and relatively small, so quite easy to go around. Lots of new highways and a very good train network. In the last few years the restaurant scene really improved in Poland, as Poland has many talented chefs who traveled abroad and now they are able to recreate all kinds of dishes from all over the world and often even better than the originals. It seems to me that so many things are done over the top, but over the top - in a good way. Most hotels are great . On my last visit I found this amazing boutique hotel called H-15, located on Ul. Poznanska and this hotel was a top notch, for a fraction of a price of another 5 star hotels. And the restaurant downstairs (Signature) had food to die for. I had there my best octopus - ever! And I have been to lots of countries where they cook octopus every day. Kaja - if you ever were a kid with an accent - you certainly did make up for it now. How many languages do you speak?
I'm fluent in 3 languages :)
Just got back to Ukraine today, to do a little more exploring. Planning to visit Poland later this month. I like your videos:)
thank you! :)
I am from Nepal and planning to move to Poland in few months. Hope to meet you in the streets of Warsaw 😁😁🤣
You can meet guys dressed up in WW1 cavalry uniforms paid for by Russia, in Warsaw.
i love your spirit . I know what you mean about been a foreigner in another country. People can be really cruel sometimes, especially kids and teenagers. I think that people that have been submerged in different cultures have a deeper, more meaningful purpose in life. I just discover your channel and i love it. THANKS!!!
so sweet of you, thank you!
I don’t know if you’ll see this, but you have become my favorite channel. I have always been fascinated in traveling and you have introduced me to many new places. I’m going to Denmark in a few months and your video contributed to that decision ALOT. Thank you!
Wow, thank you! it means a lot!
Omg, I'm jealous of you lving in Poland, but not forlong,soon after I graduate high school, I planon moving to Poland so I can study there and live there, I was born there but have lived in the USA for the last 13 years
That was an interesting vlog that gave little information about Poland too and not just why you chose to live in Poland. Keep up the good work, Kaja. Cheers
Thank you Satish!
I really enjoy watching your videos. Very informative and ur very friendly on screen not dull like others who do CZcams videos. I love the look of your black leather biker jacket, where you buy it from?
I will tell you how I view Poland as a Bulgarian (I've been to Gdansk and Warsaw).
-Infrastructure - I've lived in the States, been to 20+ European countries, Poland feels very developed. Miles ahead of Bucurest(Romania) although the two countries have similar standard of living.
-History and prettiness. Gdansk is hands down a f#ck me beautiful town, top of the food chain. Warsaw is quite nice too
-People - Polish are smart and educated and you can feel it - check PISA and IQ rankings if you don't trust me. Also - everybody minds their own business. But you gotta learn polish eventually to fit it
-Safe - Bulgaria is super safe as well as tbh, but so is Poland. In Budapest, you see anti car theft tools put on like every other car
-Food is meh. Not great quality tbh. I visited like 10 restaurants in Warsaw and the only thing I really enjoyed was a vegan restaurants (not a vegan myself, I eat meat regularly). Gdansk was way better, dunno why, but still far behind the Balkan/Mediterranean cousine we have in South-Eastern Europe in my opinion.
-weather - cold, but not impossibly cold. The towns and the infrastructure is so good, it almost feels charming.
-Beer culture is good-ish, not like Czechia, but good enough. Beer is cheap. You often can get a top quality beer for less than a coffee.
- Lots of gay flags everywhere on presidential buildings terraces. I myself don't mind gay people, so hopefully they get a better treatment in Poland
-Religion is a big things, Churches are packed on Sundays
-Coffee is expensive, like 3 Euro on average, but it's tasty at least
Last. Polish people seem very calm, none intrusive and quiet. Quite the opposite of Americans. I feel like, despite the shitheads PIS, Poland is destined to grow and become stronger that is due to the good education, smart people, 40 million population (no demographic crises), good infrastructure and important geopolitical location. The perfect mix of different influences - North (Baltic Sea), East - Ukraine/Belarus and West - Germany.
PiS are the "shitheads" according to you, so tell us whom are your favourites? Name them, please. Once you said A, say B.
BTW, I am not a fan of PiS, often mad at them.
I'm Brazilian and thinking about trying to find an opportunity to work in Poland. Certainly, will be a good choice to gain international exposure. Thanks for sharing your experience and point of view, Kaja!
Best of luck!
Hi l would like to know the name of the 2 songs in your vídeo from the city of shenzhen 🇧🇷
You’ve mentioned Ubers being cheap before. What is the driving situation like for someone living in Warsaw? Can you get by with public transportation/Ubers or would owning a car be preferred for someone near the Center? Thanks
I want to move to either Poland or Germany from various reasons, both are great countries so it's hard to choose, hence why i'm here. thank you for the videos
Best of luck!
@@KajaKubicka Thanks! A i co więcej - już studiowałam język polski 😁 dziękuję ci
Jesus.....I was 15 and my sister was 12 when we left and our Polish is impeccable, with no accent. I will never understand how people forget their native language or have a bizarre accent after a certain age. Truly, incomprehensible.
are you saying I have a bizarre accent? :pp
Infect me with a smile thank you suffers from depression cool that you are in Poland thank you Pozdrowienia z gór buziaczki słodziutkie 💖😎😘🇵🇱
I honestly can relate to a lot of things you mentioned in this video. I was born in Venezuela and at 11 yrs old, I moved with my family to Panama. 75% of my friends are locals. I am almost 18 and the experience of being a foreigner is life changing. Even at such a young age, I could see that some of the things I/ my family went through as immigrants, most of my friends couldn't relate to (they could try but you won't know how it is until you become the foreigner) Also, I do not have any other family members in this country so it's only my parents, siblings and me. which is very hard to get used to but yk, that's life ig.
I believe that the experience of moving to a different country, makes me a bit more prepared to potentially live abroad in the future. It is scary, and might be isolating but I believe it is very worth it (at least in for me) I am currently researching for universities abroad and I found a few in Poland offering my degree in English, I hope I can apply, get in and start a new chapter in my life.
The video was great, thank you! new subscriber lol ❤
If I want to settle which person we can meet for my paper work n visa please give me reply thanking
You can find some advices regarding this issue on my channel
@@PandoraPath sent me off whatsapp no
What is the best, how shall I say, laid-back coffee shop town or city in Poland? An area with lots of relaxed coffee shops?
StarBucks?
@@peterc.1419 I reject this suggestion, and yet, I was in a Starbucks yesterday and enjoyed the experience.
@@Eonwe Nero?
I'm just a Pole who lives abroad in the developing world. I rarely go back home or rather I have two homes.
If any Polish people are watching, name one positive and one negative thing about living in Poland! :)
mmm for me a plus is the rich but difficult history that makes a person deeply identify with this place
Pro:livable and currently on wave, con: long faces in public but it changes with cheerful and more global influenced Z's
We're not colonialists. The whole world outside of Europe and US, hates the West for oppression. But being Polish, you get to be a white person but without the abuse the English, Dutch, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Germans, Italians and Belgians caused countless people. We're poor but we're at least not thieves like the countries I mentioned.
@@peterc.1419 That's because Polish gentry exploited their own countrymen and ppl from Eastern Europe.
I came across your Paros, Greece, video. I have a Polish friend, and about 15 seconds into your video, I'm going "You're Polish!" 😀 The Ds in place of THs are a big clue. Great videos.
How old are you?
Definitely Poland is a country worth trying to live in. There are many pros, some cons like visa for non UE/Schengen citizens. My Mexican friend explains it really well in my video. She appreciates Poland, although she can't speak Polish. Certainly not as good as you do ;)
I had a friend from Poland.
Poland#1 !!!❤🇵🇱
3:36 the camera did walk home alone :)
The phrase is "First of all" as in all of the things I'm going to discuss or cover, I will discuss this first. Love the video. Was in Poland last week. Loved the food, people and the sights. It's a nice place. Recently found your channel and subscribed ☺️
Wow!.you're awesome!👍😂
Where did you learn English? Your English accent is very similar to accent of someone who lived in the USA for many years. Your English is excellent.
hello
♥️👍👍
If you're a Ralph Lauren fan.... try burberry , barbour and acquascutum. 💯😎
o kurde to ty jesteś Polką , takiego plot twistu się nie spodziewałem 😂
Because most people don't understand its an ultimate metro pepublic paradise

Dla każdego coś dobrego. W Polsce każdy znajdzie miejsce dla siebie wystarczy dobrze poszukać o wielu częściach Polski np wschodnia i północno wschodnia część Polski o nich mało się mówi nie są tak popularne do zwiedzania przez obcokrajowców . Całe regiony warto zwiedzać jak Bieszczady, Podlasie, Kurpie, Kujawy, Kaszuby, Mazury za to glownie widzę Warszawa, Wrocław, Kraków, Zakopane, Malbork, Toruń, Poznań, Łódź, Zielona Góra na 979 wszystkich istniejących
A Pole decided to live in Poland? Wow. Anybody knows why? I tried to get through the blabbering but I failed ....
florals for spring groundbreaking
Sad you didnt show what you got :/
I actually did film what i got and then I ended up not putting it in the video because I thought that nobody would care ;((
Please , come to California and see that crap here , You will be in the state of SHOCK, and disbelief ,how bad things are here.
Like what ?
bo Polska jest tania jak barszcz ukraiński? :)
Uwielbiam Twoje videos, jesli będziesz chciala odwiedzić Gdańsk (again), you can text me!:)
dzięki
cuz you speak the language?
Being Polish makes it easier to live in Poland, I guess :)
I think denmark is the best destination to live ☺️
It's nice but boring
that's not true, everybody speaks English in Denmark :p
For those who only want to claim benefits.
If you want to work you can make it almost anywhere - especially in Poland.
@thr - outsmart the system only lazy people have trouble finding jobs in Poland (unemployment rate is 3.4% - latest data). Salaries - they might be low if you are unqualified. Only parasites find it hard in Poland.
@thr - outsmart the system You are entitled to your opinion. But it is just what it is - an opinion. Not based on facts. Only loosers complain. Winers - do something about their lifes. Exchange rate - does not matter. Relation between salaries and costs of living matter. Go claim 500+ complainer.
Sorry to hear that you were bullied as a kid for being foreign... I thought that Denmark is a welcoming, liberal country, but I guess schoolkids are horrible everywhere!
;((
And here I am in a predominantly Polish/German State in the US saying what the hell would she want to live in China for? Lol
3:30 Be careful,2 dogs behind you....don't run
i didn't ;)
bradzo dobry poprawny polski masz, miliard razy lepszy niż duża część Polaków którzy 2 lata spedzą za granicą i już jezyk polski. "zapominają" 😉🎉
Polska :D
Is Slav squatting a thing in Poland? ha ha. I think people might be thinking you're American. I watched one of your other videos and assumed you were American. Then I noticed you make videos in Polish as well, then I thought, hang on, is she Polish? Yeah, I think that's what's happening
It’s called slav squat, not slave squat…
i messed it up..
You speak Polish with heavy accent.
NO :p
It's not "slave", it's "slav" :)
yeaaah I knwo I realised later 😩
Pros: safe (if you’re white lol)
Cons: expensive (and really low salaries)
The wages of sin is death but the Gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord ACIENT OF DAYS thats a song this is Bumblebee I really did let honey bees eat from me
Believe that Jesus was crucified for your sins and was raised from the dead and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for remission of sins and You shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, "John P Kee " Jesus is real thats a song this is Bumblebee!
