  1. If you like Kebab that much there is a chain of restaurants with craft meat called Piri-Piri Kebab. They are one of the best in the country.

  2. There is one historical fact that might be interesting for you.

    In 1802 Polish legions were sent by Napoleon to quell a rebellion in French colony in Caribbean but later joined the Haitian slaves during the Haitian Revolution and fought against French.

  3. Before you buy a bus ticket from the ticket machine, you can choose the English language. Maybe you didn't notice, but there was a British flag on the screen. If you buy a 24-hour ticket in Warsaw, you can use it to travel by bus, tram, metro and local SKM train. You've been to Poland and the proper language for that country is Polish, do not expect that every old person will speak English to you. If you want to avoid the mistake of buying a train ticket at the counter, do it online. 😉

  4. No. 1 – yes, you do need to be extra careful about you ticket. Ticket controllers get paid extra for people they catch, either without a ticker or with a wrong one, so any chance they can write you a ticket, they will, they rarely cut you any slack, even if you are a tourist.

  5. During your stay in Poland you were mostly in cities, and I encourage you to visit the province next time. I think you'd like the Tatra Mountains, the only alpine-type mountains in this part of Europe; the coast of the Baltic Sea is also nice, although the sea itself is rather cold. Such a peninsula of Hel is impressive – until recently there was a bus number 666 :), someone from the authorities apparently associated what Hel (with one more "l) means in English and probably gave the line such a number as a tourist attraction, but recently some Catholic organizations protested and it was changed to 669. But this again caused protests from tourists – it's very Polish 🙂 Nevertheless, as I say, next time go to nature: Masurian Lakes, Białowieża Forest, etc.

  6. Sheku _ you made me miss Poland even more today. I can’t wait till I come back home again. Greetings from NYC and you are not bashing the US – unfortunately what you are pointing out is true!

  7. A few words about black Polish patriots. You need to know the stories of August Agbola O'Brown, aka 'Ali.' He was born on July 22, 1895 in Lagos and died on September 8, 1976 in London. He was a Polish musician of Nigerian origin, an underground activist. Probably the only black participant in the Warsaw Uprising. After the war, he emigrated from communist Poland. He has a commemorative plaque in the center of Warsaw in Pasaż Wiecha. Joseph Sam Sandi wrote a great story. Born as Sam Sandi (born 1885, died April 29, 1937 in Poznań) He was a Polish professional wrestler, an insurgent of Greater Poland. The commander of the legion sent to Haiti was Władysław Franciszek Jabłonowski (born October 25, 1769 in Gdańsk, died September 29, 1802 in Saint-Domingue) – brigadier general of the Polish Legions. . He was a Polish and French general. Jabłonowski was the illegitimate son of the wife of General Konstanty Aleksander Jabłonowski, Maria Franciszka Dealire, an English aristocrat, and her African butler. He was adopted by Jabłonowski.

  8. #2 is not quite fair. Why someone expecting everybody speaks english (BTW most young people do, on train stations / city there are special tourist info points with english <and not only> speakers). I'm wondering, can i buy a ticket in London using German/Italian/Spanish/French or Polish? Can i select Polis language in kiosks? Do English/Americans speak ANY other language than English?
    Greetings from Katowice
    PS Speak louder (and music volume down). It's partially hard to understand for non-english speakers.

  9. Sheku I invite you to visit Bydgoszcz again, I can give you a quick tour, take you to the most interesting spots and landmarks, just let me know in advance. We can go by car or take a bus/tram, whichever is more convenient for ya. Gimme a shout if you're planning to come back. Btw I'll also tell you some quirks and funny facts about cities in Poland that may make it more interesting. Cheers!

  10. When was your trip to Lodz? I also rode the Baczynski train on the Lodz-Warsaw relation 2 days ago! Even the hour was the same, so maybe we've seen each other?

  11. many prople in poland speak english, but you know. It's just ticked agent… it isn't necesery to know english on ny level there

  12. If you have troubles with buying tickets at station just look around for someone young-er (20-30years) – and ask if they speak english. Older people had russian or german at school, but younger – english. And some like to practice it so would gladly help if not in a rush (been there: I translated in station in Opole).
    Kebabs are hit and miss – some can be great, some are terrible. When in doubts: check google reviews. Also: if there is long line of people that looks like locals – it probably will be good 🙂
    One tip: music in video is way too loud and your voice too quite (especially at the beginning) – had to change volume few times. Music was really nice though 🙂

  13. main reason for the language barrier is the fact that many people didn't have english at school beacuse english was incorporated into polish school after the year 1989

  14. Most of the transportation fares and other info. is usually in English, too but don't worry. I can't understand most of it in Polish, too. The info about prices, routes and timetables at the stations or bus stops is unclear and confusing even for the locals. On websites, too!

  15. I cannot understand that foreigners are so surprised that Poles in Poland speak Polish. When we Poles find ourselves in England, Ethiopia or Egypt, we are not surprised that they do not speak Polish there. There they speak English, Ethiopian, Arabic. This determines the average level of intelligence and rationality. Foreigners, realize once and for all that Polish is spoken in Poland. As a courtesy and to make your life easier, learn a few words in Polish before you come to us, please don't be ignorant and lazy. Thank you.

  16. Older people speaking Russia,mabee Germany. In communist times we have mostly Russians foreginers and thats the only language in school (i mean foregin offcorse). Now in Polisch schools we have English and Germany,but sometimes Spanish,French etc

  17. I suspect that instead of this "seven" another "seven" was told to my friend. More or less like this:
    1. Poles are racists.
    2. Poles are stupid.
    3. Poland and Poles are dirty.
    4. Poles can't build.
    5. Poles are thieves.
    6. There is nothing worth seeing in Poland.
    7. Poles eat only potatoes and cabbage.
    I know that such an image of Poland and Poles is created by the left of the West.
    Please search the Internet for what Gilbert Keith Chesterton wrote about Poles 100 years ago.
    Regards

  18. 7 Things no one told you, but i bet everyone told you to not go to Poland because its full of racist people who will beat you up on every corner of the street.

  19. @sheku Love your video man Glad you like Poland If I ever meet you while you’re in Torun again We gonna smash the best pierogi on the world bro 🤜 Keep doing what you doing Grand job 👌

  20. If u will be again on Łódź check out the "pasaż róży" also try to participate in higher cities in "noc muzeów" (night of museums – free entry to most of them) and "light move festival" 😉

  21. Your soft-spoken manner adds credibility to your story. You're sharing instead of selling, and that laidback, easy-going attitude is very persuasive in its sincerity.
