Americans are always amazed by how cheap things are in Central and Eastern Europe until they get their first paycheck :D
But some of jobs is well-paid for foreigners. So it can be diversely. It depends from person and having her/his skills. :)
😀
Yeah moving here is not worth it unless you're a highly skilled specialist. Minimum net wage in Poland as of now (2021) 430€, average 865€. Laughable.
@@apoptose1558 better than in Russia tho lol I want to move to Poland just to have better opportunities
@@mooma0912 If you're coming from Russia then it makes sense, I suppose.
Don't worry about asking directions, most of younger or even middle aged people speak english here :) and we are generally friendly and helpfull
Yes, Poland is a surprisingly English-friendly nation! And, it will never hurt you to try and learn a few words of Polish, either. It IS a very hard language, for English speakers to learn, but ... the good news is that it is NOT IMPOSSIBLE to learn, either. The other good news is that Polish is about 85% phonetic, relatively easy to pronounce, there are only four key tenses, and word order does not matter as much as it does speaking English. Set your bar very low at first. And, practice, please.
Thank you.
It is also a good idea to never assume that people will speak English, in a foreign country.
To do that is to appear to be entitled.
And, Americans do have a bit of a reputation in Europe for being a bit full of ourselves, which actually (I am American!) is somewhat accurate.
Are Muslims welcome there? Just asking. Since you are local and more aware
@@fathimafarahna2633 Our current government :) you could say is not wellcoming anyone, even tries to get out of EU, but as for the people I think yes Muslims are welcomed here and there are some Muslims communities here - maybe not as much as in France or UK (statistically - less than 0.1% of the population in Poland is Muslim) but they are in bigger cities, although you need to have in mind that Poland is in 93% Roman Catholic. But Muslims are not something rare or strange here, there is a minority of Polish-Tatars and a lot of people come here to study or work.
@@lublinmetalhead5547 Our government does not want to get us From UN. Also it is not true that our government is not welcoming anyone. Over 2 milion people from Ukrain work here. Also a lot of people From other countries. Of course our government is not perfect But people like Lublin Metalhead show our country in false image which is very sad.
you definitely need to keep the ticket on the bus or tram because the ticket inspector may show up out of nowhere wearing normal clothes you won’t even notice he’s an inspector, so yeah
In Warsaw i saw them only in uniforms, do i might right?
@@noscraftfan dependents on the city, but sometimes there are undercovered inspectors
@@noscraftfan Depends on the city. In my city you'll get two of these fkers dressed like a normal person. They wait until the bus/tram closes doors then they pull out the ticket machine from under their coats.
@@NarcoChronicles yeah when I hear that 'peep' when I'm in a bus/tram sitting peacefully it sends chills down my spine
@@shion3948 Yep. DUN DUN „Proszę przygotować bilety do kontroli”
I had a class of Polish migrant workers teaching them my language, and them having next to know knowledge of my language forced me to teach myself some Polish (I had only them, and was on partial benefits so I had plenty of time), words like 'Słowa dla rodzina', 'ojciec', 'matka', 'syn', 'corka' etc. (sorry for misspelling), and the language, culture and people grew on me. Even though I quit the job, I still try to teach myself Polish from time to time, and I've even been to Kraków once, and while there, I tried to speak as much as possible. Props to you and your journey, and the best of luck!
Words for family is better translated into: "Słowa oznaczające członków rodziny" 🙂
'Know knowledge'!
Lol the balcony door in most places in PL opens in 3 ways: handle up- opens to the top (great if u want some wentilation & it’s raining for example); handle 90° opens door to enter (normal); handle 45° microventilation (not everyone has that) - it lets a little bit air in but doesn’t really open the door, it just lets air in through the sides; handle down- door closed
My door broke and it's stuck in the microventilation mode
It's becoming winter
This is such a great video! You are so authentic, you don't feel pressure to make professional video, you just chill and have fun making it! I really needed to watch something like this.
this is exactly how I felt when I moved to UK. I really appreciate this experience after years. Enjoy Poland.
Girl, I would totally hang out with you there! I moved to Warsaw from my small mountain town when I was 19 and had very similar feelings about it. "Sooo this is where I live, how would it be, can I figure it out?" - I can relate to this kind of thouths so much. In the end it was a great 4 years. Hope that you'll experience amazing stuff there, find your places and, most importantly, your people. You seem like an adventurous, outgoing soul and I'm sure that wouldn't be a problem :)
Czuję się, jakbym oglądała serial 😁
Super kanał, cieszę się, że wyskoczył mi w polecanych ❤
nie wiem jakim cudem dostałam twój kanał w rekomendacjach, ale nie żałuję!!! naprawdę dobrze się ogląda twoje filmiki. uśmiałam się
nie bój się rozmawiać po angielsku, większość młodych ludzi i tych w średnim wieku mówi po angielsku. Polacy nie lubią tylko innych Słowian (w tym innych Polaków).
twój filmik z początkami nauki języka jest super. dobrze ci idzie.
powodzenia!!!
19:20 old polish chocolate factory, like XIX century :) Near this small lake a shot down plane crashed during II WW Warsaw's Uprising in 1944. There is a small monument in the park to commemorate the British/Canadian/Sth African crew members. You live in a nice neighbourhood. My grandma lived there for some time.
Emma, we are pretty sure you will like it here. You have an open mind and a positive approach. People are gonna love you, especially your students
I have a question.
Is Poland a good destination for me as an Asian and Muslim?
Depends what you want to do here my man. If you will be good, respective and accept our rules we will accept you
@@janekwisniewski3186 for example study and then working or open business there. Because i saw on a statistic that Polish people are on the red list of accepting foreigners (on society or marriage) especially on black, asian, muslim, or jew
@@lemagnifique1573 In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary: "Come anytime!" :-) (though it was "come again" actually...).
You Asians are world-known to be hard working and well-integrating (see the Vietnamese, for example), and your faith has nothing to do with it, you can even believe in Donald Trump if you wish... (no offence to Prophet Muhammad meant, of course). To sum up, you are more than welcome here, as are all the peace-loving and good-natured people.
@@SlawekM. yes, as I'm from Indonesia. And i saw many indonesians abroad are accepted everywhere (even some of them marry the local) and rarely to saw them treated badly in Europe/America unlike our fellow Muslims from indian subcontinent or Middle East Northern Africa.
Something amazing will happen in a few weeks time in Warsawa, they will close the roads and people will visit the cemetery to place candles and flowers for loved ones.
Here in Mikołajki, we are enjoying all the beautiful colours of Autumn.
Welcome to Poland! Asking someone for help is not a sign of weakness! Go ahead and tease, especially younger people who mostly speak English. When I'm in a new city, I always buy a map and spend a few moments on it to learn the grid. In addition, you can handle communication in Google maps. Just enter point A and B and you will get a detailed itinerary.
When I'm done with nursing school in Connecticut I'm gonna move to Kraków, Poland.
@Asadbek Khudayberganov For who? ;)
Well, moving to Poland to teach English is understandable. Moving to Poland to be a nurse seems like a heroism and / or lunacy. Hopefully better times for Polish health service will come. Good luck!
Tomasz , please... across the state line in Mass are hospitals paying cold hard cash for nurses, whether as Temps, per diets, or on any other terms you can dream of. if you want to try Poland on for fit, you can. But trust me, Poland tastes best with an American wallet in hand.
Best regards, Polish raised retina specialist, living in PA and visiting Poland the way I like to :)
dont be afraid asking in english, try to use it like a good reason to make new friends, most people are really friendly, and asking in polish is really polite, but you are allowed to say as you have trouble :) most people have phones with wifi and can also translate direction with support. Palace of culture is great starting point. I assure you that most people who live in warsaw dont know how to go to this IKEA and they know only their neighbourhood. Ikea at M1 (Targówek) are easier to get, because it is in the same direction like old town-> dworzec wileński -> and straitght to IKEA with bus for example 190. You have there other malls also.
Welcome to Poland, Emma! Really excited for you!
Buduje się gwardia polskich imigrantów ;D
Jak fajnie zobaczyć Stefcia tam gdzie się go nigdy nie spodziewało. Co więcej, tam gdzie samemu się nigdy nie spodziewało być.:)
This was brave girl, im polish and i was once departed from my family it was tough i cried to the pillow and it was just 10 days in London but at that time i wasn`t aware how long ill stay in London.
I love it!!!! I just came across your video and just returned to Arizona from 3 weeks in Poland! What a beautiful country--and the food--😊 I will retire in about 5 years and if I am well enough I want to move there for maybe 6 months--if not Warsaw--maybe one of the other cities I have been to. Your first days had some of my first days mixed in (I need to go this way and I hope the tram doesn't turn right after the stop 😄). When you went looking for coffee I thought for sure you would hit Green Nero Caffe--that place is so wonderful! I can't wait to see the rest of your videos!!!
I am sure you're doing great! :) Actually my 3yo son started a preschool this year. He also has an English speaker teacher. It's getting really popular here. I live in Wilanów - Warsaw. If you ever feel like bored or want to go for a coffe or something, happy to drink it with you :)
As a half-polish and half-american, I can say I just found out about your channel and basically I'm able to only say Congratulations. You've been doing amazing as for your time in Warsaw. I was born here, still live here, yet I find it amazing for people like you to find about this country, it even amazes me that you actually moved here without knowing pretty much what is this country. Very proud of you! :D
Welcome Emma! Warsaw is a wonderful city, you can do plenty of inspiring things here. I must say that you're very brave! I left Poland to live in another country, but it was still Europe. Moving to another continent is really courageous! I wish you luck! 😊
Hi Emma!
Well, I can see that it's going to be a pretty good series with Emma Witter in the lead role. Its title - "An American in Warsaw". The first episode was suspenseful from start to finish. What will be the next? Will Emma, who plays herself, overcome her fear of speaking English?
Bookmakers are betting 2 to 1 that she won't beat - while I'm optimistic. After all, for the average Pole, English sounds beautiful and even magical. There are historical, political and economic connotations behind it, which even Joe Biden himself cannot spoil. We Poles like to listen to English, we also like helping American girls lost in a big city. So take it easy, relax, take a break from the American hustle and bustle and racing.
For almost 4 years I lived as an expat in Glasgow (Scotland), which is why I love and appreciate this Warsaw calm, and even Warsaw boredom. You will live here for a while, see what and how, and you will do well, like the rest of the Anglo-American diaspora... In 2019 - 40,082 foreigners of various nationalities were permanently registered in Warsaw, including 425 US citizens and 818 UK citizens. What is their current number, I do not know, but probably more or less the same.
So, dear Emma - good luck!
:)
th-cam.com/video/JSXkXzEENSs/w-d-xo.html
Such a great experience!!! Hope it all goes well and love the positive vibes!! 😊
Hey girl I see you’re here in Poland as well, I hope you have a great time too :))
Poland is Great. Really is. Authentic people with good hearts and true values. Very rare these days
This trend will continue to grow. Unfortunately, we can only accommodate Americans from several states, so the speed of the decision to move is important ;P
I loved the video and you're adorable! I'll be looking forward to your upcoming videos. Best of luck in Poland. I'll be visiting Poland from the states this summer for two months. I believe overall you're going to love it!
Welcome to Poland, moved to Poland myself 6 months ago from Portugal! :)

most people are speaking english, dont worry to ask for directions
Protip for guessing who will speak english better:
Poland started to force good english education since mid '90. So if you can guess age, if someone started school around 1995 (so was born after 1989) you can be certain that he will speak english, especially in Warsaw, where public education is very good. So anyone 30 or younger wont only give you directions, but will help you with almost anything. Like, figuring out where that thing you are looking for in store is.
Ahahah i got lost running in park skaryszewski too! Those running loops are trippy as fuck.
oh i wish this was true. a great majority of the people ive met cannot say anything besides basic phrases despite being in public education for years
@@gloryofthesnooow Yeah, it's a lottery. But if you're faced with a choice of whom to ask for directions, there's a much higher chance that the younger person will speak English better (or, like, at all). But it depends. If you're close to a tech-focused corporate building (Nokia and stuff), there's a high chance people around it will speak English as well. City centres of bigger cities like Warsaw or Wrocław tend to be full of English speaking ppl 'cause of the tourism.
But also keep in mind the "basic phrases and nothing else" thing might be caused by embarrassment. Kind of like with Japanese ppl. Poles tend to be very self-conscious about English pronunciation and thick accent. Most people never really got to actually speak out loud in English to anyone else, so the lack of practice can also make someone seem like they don't know the language, despite being able to write long-ass essays in their English classes and whatnot. I had this problem for a looong while - had pretty good written English and chatted with lots of ppl on the web via text, but as soon as I had to open my mouth - I was paralyzed and my vocabulary shrunk up significantly. It took me an IT job and a mixed-nationality team (had to speak English on meetings) to finally open up. Practice, basically.
But yeah, defo easier to find a younger person speaking English than older.
I LOVE this „bad bitches” part in the planner lol
Btw I'm based in Krakow. This reminds me a lot of the time when I moved here lol. If you ever visit and need a place to stay or someone to show you around I'd be happy to do so! ✌️
Welcome to Warsaw, Emma! Looking forward for more vids! :)
I am an American learning Polish right now and your videos help me a lot. Thank you. ^^
I really like your vibe. Wish you luck in ✨Poland✨
Poland is amazing 💖💖💖💖💖
13:00 I had the same feelings moving to NYC in the late 80's. Speaking just Polish, Russian and German. No English at all.
Also mention that Warsaw is not whole Poland. You have to visit other cities and areas.
Wish you good luck and have fun in Poland.
Wie kommts, dass Du Polnisch, Deutsch UND russisch sprichst? :)
When I was 23 I did move from Poland to London UK, I know how you feel, you are brave and smart. I think Warsaw will surprise you with all the Christmas decorations. Enjoy it!!!
You should visit Zakopane, and take a hike to Morskie oko. You will be in love with that magical place. It is one of the most beautiful places in Poland.
Just go to Bieszczady, Zakopane is crowded with people and expensive as shit.
If you don’t like the smell in your apartment I do recommend fragrance sticks ☺️
or open the window :)
Welcome to Poland Emma! I really enjoyed your video, especially that me and my husband have moved to London from Poland five months ago, and lots of our feelings were exactly the same :)
I really recommend visiting Wrocław. I used to live there over 10 years and it is just charming, friendly and beautiful city. Good luck and have a lovely time in Poland! :)
love ur energy queen
I am from Missouri as well..and lived in Poland
I’m sure you figured it out by now….but you have to check your own ticket at the machines in the bus (they are everywhere). The machine stamps it or punches holes in it. If the bus control officers come on the bus once in a while they check if you have a stamped ticket. If not, they take you off and give you a fee.
Lukasze are the nicest guys in Poland.
Lukasz.
bollocks
don't be scared to ask for directions or speak english, tbh i personally think that Poles do not really speak English fluently, but it'll be fine, trust me, enjoy the country, wish you all the best
used to live in Warsaw for 12 years, so gonna be coming back for more. Your video(s) make me sentimental. Keep em coming please. You're perfectly catching the mood of Warsaw. Feels like being back.
Don't hesitate asking people for directions in English. Especially the younger ones
Almost every Pole before the age of 60 speaks English, especially in Warsaw. People who are reaching the age of 60 today were just in their 20s when communism collapsed. Everyone learned English at school, and after the fall of communism, they often used it at work or on vacation...
@@alh6255 I'd have to disagree on that one.
@@Darnokk15 OK, not almost every before 60 (50+) but many of them, especially with university education.
Recording to the tickets .. If u bought it in the box outside the bus, you should validate that inside the bus in small, yellow validator (also inside the tram etc.). If u bought ticket inside the bus in bigger box than validator xD (it's always somewhere in the middle of bus/tram), it would be underlined on the screen that it will be instantly valid after payment. So, in my opinion, if u really did not do anything with that ticket which was bought outside ... you were using public transport illegal ... and you do not have to show your ticket to anybody to the time, when particular persons (they get to transport randomly in randomly places at randomly time - so some people drive illegal, because there is possibility that they will be not caught. Of course if they will be, then they have to pay a fine) will ask you to show valid ticket. I think that's all ;D
I'm so glad to see another American coming over to Poland with an attempt to settle and assimilate. super glad. I hope everything will turn out well for you, although I know life in Metropolis like Warsaw sometimes might be complicated and challenging.
Hopefully you will enjoy everything with all pros and cons of the country. Its good that you moved to biggest polish city apart of Chicago and not have ended up in a shithole trapped like one Australian girl somewhere in poorer part of Poland in a mid of triangle Rzeszów - Kielce - Lublin. The another one would have been Suwałki-Warszawa-Braniewo - but this one is at least beautiful one!
Opportunities in Warsaw are just way better than anywhere else in Poland but if you really want experience polish openness you better resettle to Wrocław a capital of so called Recovered Lands. Up there local Poles are basically so mixed; Poland regained these chunk of territory after WWII so all the Poles who settled in there are from somewhere else, namely, modern Belarus and Ukraine, Germany and in some towns even from late Yugoslavia and France, so down to this fact Poles of Lower Silesia or "Szczecinskie" are more opened and more friendly towards newcomers as they themselves are descendants of migrants and pioneers.
Poor Australian girl was also teaching English somewhere but she basically was too fed up with it so she gave up.
Anyway, I wish you all the best, wonderful stay, a lot of satisfaction.. take a good care ! My fingers are crossed for your success
PS
I look forward to hear from you again and can't wait for new episodes
and here is Vlog of Australian girl I've mentioned above.

Thats what Im trying to figure out. By the quality of everything I have a hard time believing this is her first YT video, but I don't recognize her from anywhere. Also strange that this channel has had this much success so early on.
Welcome to Poland Emma! You might be a great native english teacher in our country. I love american culture, language and I'm still traying to improve my english...Good luck
Hey! Welcome to Poland! I enjoy watching your videos. You are so friendly, and positive about moving out to PL. It’s so interesting to look at your first days in PL. Good to have you here! Enjoy, and if you need any help- just ask!
Great Video! I subscribed :) Please continue to film your story :)
Hi Emma! If you are still looking for nice cafes I would definitely recommend places such as MOD at Oleandrów Street (I looove their donuts and also they have great food), Etno Cafe, Stor Cafe, Kukułka (ohh they have delicious cakes and other pastries!), Ministerstwo Kawy, Kawiarnia Fabryczna, Emesen, Secret Life Cafe and Relaks! Enjoy discovering Warsaw and I keep my fingers crossed for you to settle in quickly! xx
C'mon You've missed Forum! Forum Cafe is the Best in Warsaw!
It reminds me the times before smartphones and Google Maps. Travelling or commuting back then was much harder. I don't understand why you don't rely on your phone more often.
It took me a couple days to get a Polish sim card! Google maps is my best friend now
You pronounce Polish words really well. I hope you'll enjoy living in my home town. All the best!
If you want to open the balcony door you have to rotate the handle horizontal not vertical (halfway).
Great video. I just moved to Poland (Krakow) from England. I really love it here. Don’t think I want to go back.
You are not afraid that in Poland prices are higher than on West of Europe?
@@borzymirsowianin2907 They're what?
Run when u still can
You are doing just fine! Take small steps! When I moved to USA I was lost as well! Tip ... watch polish movies with English subtitles!
make a vlog about your first impressions of Warsaw, Poland. That'd be interesting.
I live in Poland and i love my country 🖤💜🤍
3:28 This is the first time you try to say the words: "Przepraszam, nie mówię po polsku"? Surprisingly good pronunciation :P I recommend buying bread in bakeries - compared to supermarkets, the quality is much better. :P
yes first time! I've gotten pretty good at saying it since being here though haha.

That's my gurl, everyone stay back ❤
Love you Emms
The biggest fan here
Welcome to Poland, Emma! You're gonna love it!
We literally missed each other. I was in Springfield, MO September-November, now back in Warsaw. :D My boyfriend is from SGT, MO!
Second of all - damn, that's brave to not know anything about a country and GO.
You are tiring because the weather in Warsaw is quite dry! I had the same problem, if you want a good night's sleep, go to Gdańsk, the weather is humid there.
tell me how do u like polish food products? when i was in usa everythig tasted like plastic
Funny thing
Can land some really well paid jobs in Poland without knowing polish.
For some knowing english and german(or spanish) goes a long way, better than just knowing polish and english xd
This is a fun and interesting perspective on things though, thank you for sharing.
I moved to Atlanta from Krakow 24 years ago and it felt like this exactly for quite some time. Good luck.
I keep my fingers crossed for you, Emma! I don't even know how I get here to your channel, but I'm glad I did! :)
hi ,welcome in Poland,,,,,,some of us like used to live abroad as well, so we can understand what you are going thru at the beginning,,,,but remember its only an experience and make the best of it,,,,,,,we are more helpfull to people from abroad then to our self,,,,,have fun
I left Poland while ago.
It supposed to be for 3 months and here I am 17 years later, still in UK
n Warsaw you can always ask in your language, preferably middle-aged Varsovians or high school students, they will help you and in restaurants they usually speak your language. You feel exhausted because you are not sure inside in a foreign count😀
Welcome to Poland and have a good time in Warsaw :) (in your free time you can always drive around and get to know new tastes for all regions) Poland is now more open than 20 years ago and easier to communicate with English :)
Pople Moving out as quick as possible and she moved in very brave good luck.
Don`t be afraid to speak English because many in Poland, especially in Warsaw, speak English.
As for Warsaw I have been there maybe three times. Even though I don't like it (in my opinion there are better cities in Poland) I have respect for this place. In World War II 90% of the city was razed to the ground by the Germans. Poles rebuilt their capital after the war thanks to hard work, although at that time they were occupied and robbed by the Russians. Warsaw has a rather difficult history. If possible, visit Gdańsk, Wrocław, Kraków.
Yup, unfortunately that's the reason why Warsaw is not the prettiest of our cities because it had to be rebuild after WWI.
If you are a coffe fan - definately try Pożegnanie z Afryką ! Not far from Old Town. Unique place with coffee !
I know that in America you have this shitty bread in plastic bags, but in Poland it's super easy to buy GOOD bread that is crunchy and fresh, so please try it!
Hiii Emma-Polish language is very hard to learn-probably 6th or 7th worldwide i belive?!, good thing about polish grammar is that the way You've spoken some particular word-the same way You will have to write it...Wish U luck out there,and as ppl said there's many fantastic places to see in there.Ps younger,or even middle age ppl they do speak English,but in a back of Ur head You have to remember that its English(Uk),back in USA there are different words like "lift" and "elevator".Greetings
It is def an interesting time to move to Poland considering current social and political situation.
Use an old Polish saying - "end of tongue for a guide" (koniec języka za przewodnika). Never be scared to ask in english anyone for anything :)
OMG! You are amazing! Girl, you are doing a great job in terms of learning polish, I'm impressed! :) if you ever going to visit Wroclaw let me know I can show you this beautiful city or at least we can grab some beer a talk :)
take the ticket and slide it into a yellow box fixed on bus railing the box scans the ticket and after that when it is done scanning you take the ticket out
This is so sweet haha I needed you on my first day here
I also moved to Warsaw and guess what... I get lost at 10 pm and my phone died! The way which took me seventeen minutes takes more than hour! It was craaaazy
Nice to see you in Poland! I hope you'll enjoy!
I recommend great and inexpensive traditional Polish food at the "Fregata" bar. It's next to your apartment, I can see. And, of course, vodka in the "Alpejski" bar, brought back in time from the People's Republic of Poland.
First learning for Americans.....Ikea is pronunced as E-Kya in Europe
If you asked me for directions in English I'd be happy to show off my English skills, so don't worry about that ;)
It is the first your movie that I have watched and this vlog is great! Even though I supossed to sleep now I've watched it with a huge curiosity 🧐
I hope you will enjoy all of your stay in Poland :)
You look just fine, keep up, all the best with discovering poland :)
Enjoy your time in Poland! Powodzenia!
Ok, so you don't know about 1 important thing. There are 4 hair colors. Brunette, blond, red and brown (we call it szatyn in Poland). You ended up not blond, but a szatyn. It may sound silly, but for Polish people your color is not blond at all.
8:04 "Monday, August 23, 2021" ... and that proves that we are dealing with legit American xD
I felt identified during the whole time. my first days in Warsaw looked quite similar :D
I moved to Poland a few Years ago from Australia. Welcome to Poland . You will be alright . I can speak Polish very well .
May I ask why you moved from Australia to Poland ? My sister want to move from Poland to Australia . Strange isn't it ? I advised not go to there due to bugs , spiders , wild animals etc.
Welcome in Poland, I like the music in the vlog!
