Yes, especially if You compare to the other western countries, for example Germany. They earn 2-4 times more than in Poland and still can have lots of things cheaper than here (especially electronics)
@Prem Poland is beautifull, Polish culture is beautifull but the goverment is the stupidest thing i ever saw and the next kne will probably be even more stupid
A ja myślę, że lubimy jak nas doceniają, bo za granicą znani jesteśmy jaki 'biedaki' 'nieroby' 'pijaki' 'złodzieje'. Bardzo głupie utarte stereotypy, ale nie mówcie mi, że tak nie bywa. Bardzo mi się raduje serce, że powoli to się zmienia i ludzie z zagranicy widzą coś pięknego w nas i w naszym kraju i o tym mówią. Duży plus dla autora, dużo radości mi sprawił tym filmem :)
Bo zbyt często jesteśmy ignorowani lub odrzucani, albo traktowani jako ruska kolonia. Dlatego ja się bardzo cieszę, kiedy ktoś z innego kraju wspomni o nas dobrze, tak sam z siebie.
A ja to widzę trochę inaczej. O byle co się szarpiemy, kłócimy, o obostrzenia pandemii, o szczepionki, o PISy lewactwo itp, o Kościół Dlatego, jako tacy, nie mamy wysokiego mniemania o samych sobie. Stąd wielkie ciśnienie na pochwały z zewnątrz.

From my observations in public we don't speak to each other loud, because we don't want to be in attention. We don't like to be in attention. Once I got visitors from Italy and they mentioned that Poland is very "quiet" country. I must agree with them. Well it changes after darkness when ppl get one or two drinks ;) but usually they don't like to be loud. But we do speak loud on the telephone. From my personal perspective I speak loud because I think person on the other side can't hear me well 😅
Yes, for me as a Dutch person with Polish friends, I would say that the Polish people speak rather modestly with each other and it sounds really polite and friendly. I am not understanding a word though.
Najpierw trzeba się razem najebać , potem przywitać, potem wymienić imionami, następnie coś razem porobić, wyjść i coś razem zjeść i można się wtedy zapytać co u kogoś słychać , proste hahahh
Ja tego nie lubię bo nie rozpoznaję twarzy i panikuję, że rozmawiam z kimś, kogo powinnam znać. Ale fakt - "dzień dobry" od przypadkowej osoby na chodniku sprawia, że czuję się dziwnie.

It's not like you shouldn't refuse your granny's offer for another course of meal (although you probably shouldn't), but it's simply impossible - she literally won't let you go unless you're so full you can barely move.
Funfact about loudness - main reason for that is sound complexity of the language. If you don't speak loud, you can be easily misunderstood by others. Polish movies are great example of that, sound mix is usually really poor, because there is so much interference of ambient and enviroment sounds with sounds as "ś, ź, ć". If we don't speak loud, we sound like mumble 😄
There's one thing. You say that when you hear a Pole complaining, you should complain too so he feels understood. But before doing that, don't forget about previously mentioned rule - consistency. Don't say that your day was shitty if it actually wasn't.
One of the most difficult things for me was to convince the British and Spanish people I worked with that I didn't mean to be rude when I wasn't discussing the current weather outside or other meaningless things with them during a lunch break. Poles rarely chat for no real reason or about 'nothing'. We like to talk about something that makes sense, is at least a bit important to us, but discussing the sunny/cloudy/windy day or what he/she will have for lunch today, just to maintain some verbal contact is usually not our thing.
Exactly! Our generation hates small-talk. What is interesting is that the generation of our parents (people who were born and raised in communism) loves it and feels that is natural. And of course, after small-talk, they complain together - on the weather, government, prices, etc. :) It's not that simple as it looks. :)
@@Sobstus Yeah my mum is always talking to me.Why you didn't ask your friend how is he doing?I don't like these topics because it isn't important at all.Maybe this is bad example but I think you know what i mean

My dream is to go to Poland, and see where my father's family lived. And from the descriptions of behavior, I'm more Polish than I thought possible. Thank you for sharing this video.
If I could I would go as far as I can from here. Poland is being destroyed by people blinded by hateful ideology. If you are not a white, catholic, heterosexual male (yes, even females are getting in trouble now, some of their rights have been taken away) you might be simply beaten up. Also it's better to speak polish than other language when you walk alone. Poland is not a safe place now. I wish I could stay here but probably I'll be forced to leave because of the political propaganda. I wouldn't recommend visiting Poland these days.
I'm moving to Poland in the next couple of weeks to join my polish partner I'm south American living in Ireland for the last 22 years And after being together for 8 years we decide to move there , your videos have been very useful and informative Specially caming from the same cultural background ,have been in Poland a good few times and I Love the people and the straight forward no bullshit general attitude they have towards life in general , can't wait to move and settle down , thanks for the help.
@April Fool I love it here it was a bit of a shock but now I'm used to it, the language it's a nightmare to learn and the difference in wages will put alot of people off from coming here, the prices are the same as in Ireland but you make 5 times less, all and all this is my home now and I love it.

I love Poland 🇵🇱 and Polish people 🥰 I’ve been there people are so welcoming and kind 👏🏻 I’m a Turkish lady myself but I got myself a Polish husband 😌 been together for 5 years married for 2 best decision ever made now we are expecting a baby 💕
Never refuse anyone who is Polish. That includes Matka. Who can resist Polish food any way. Yum! I love this brown soup, with raisins, noodles and plums. It's delicious! It's duck blood soup, we call czernina. That's char-neena.
The Poles that manned the Destroyer ORP Piorun. Ever since I learned of this Polish crew with giant balls of solid brass? I have admired the Polish people. Here is an excerpt from Polish naval history. “ORP Piorun was a Polish destroyer that was part of the British Navy when they engaged the Bismarck. She was sent in with the British destroyers early in the morning of May 30, 1941 to harass the Bismarck and keep the ship occupied while the rest of the British fleet caught up. The entire time the ORP Piorun was firing at the Bismarck, it was using it's signal lights to send the message "I AM A POLE." - message "I AM A POLE."”.
Really specific behavior of Polish people is that every time someone mentions us in the Internet or at least shows any reference to our country, Polish people are going nuts and are happy that someones from abroad sees us. Kinda weird, but happens every time
The most important rule: Don't talk about politics. That can cause you a lot of trouble when you meet someone who is supporting other political party. In the most extreme cases you can even get beaten up. When someone asks you who you were voting for or who do you support just say that you didn't vote or you are not into politics. It'll be best for you, trust me.
If you're a good citizen it is your duty to talk about politics. Without dialogue about politics you end up neck deep in shit, which is Polands situation at the moment. "You might not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you". So put that damn instagram down for a moment and learn some shit about real world. And then confront it with someone's else opinion, because maybe you didn't check your facts, or maybe someone else didn't check her/his facts.
Wow I'm Brazilian, decedent from poland my grandma brought a lot of her folks culture I can easily relate to things like sharing, keeping the distance, and being really mad at people not doing the things they said they would do, and yes I find terrible to commit to things that I can't do a 100% right. Great video BTW
Man I live in the UK since 8 years, and I have never met anyone who would be so accurate, while talking about my nation, basing on his own experiences . Well played bro. And that circle of personal space is a real thing. 😂
The private cirle of space is existing in another cultures as well. British people don't like to be poke, to be too close to others. You can see how Customer Advisor talks and behave with customers.
Never say phrase "polskie obozy koncentracyjne" (polish concentration camps), because it wasn't polish. It was on Poland teritory but it was nazi camps - it might offend someone. Also many people can get outraged when someone insult pope John Paul II. However I think that many people, specially young people, lost esteem for John Paul II when they realize that he suppressed paedophilia in church.
I'm a Pole and I don't agree with this "loud speaking" point. In fact we are likely speaking quietly, especially via phone. I'd say, one who is speaking loudly has probably some problems with connection.
Niestety, ludzie - a w szczególności kobiety - mówią do siebie głośno kiedy chcą pokazać, że jakiś temat jest dla nich bardzo zajmujący. To nie problemy, to po prostu emocje. Ludzie mówią też głośno, żeby w grupie ktoś zwrócił większą uwagę i im przypadkiem nie przerwał przy okazji. Chcą być w stadzie ,,przebojowi,, i uniknąć oskarżeń o ,,szaromyszkowanie,, nudziarstwo i brak zaangażowania. Tylko wątpię, że to akurat cecha Polaków. Styl komunikacji i potrzeba przynależności nie ma narodowości.
I agree with Maverral, Poles are definitely not loud in public in general, unless drunk or having really good time. I spent last 14 years in Spain and I can tell you, Poles whisper in the street when compared to a typical Spanish person, especially here in the south (Andalusia).
We're even quieter, when we want to discuss something outlaw, which is common (unfortunately, because of our poorly written laws), or we even say "it's not a talk we can do through phone" (roughly translated) which means we have to meet in person and discuss it. We're very careful with saying things through phone because of lots of years under communist government, when lots of phones were tapped and you didn't know if yours weren't intentionally, or by accident
Hello, i'm Polish and i can say that grandmas in Poland are seriously very kind. For example my grandma was making pudding for me everyday after day in School.
British person here. My thoughts on Poland? I love it so much... fantastic people and country... can't wait to explore it. would love to go to the North East lakeland area
Also Poland might be cheap for someone who has german salary. People working for 2500 PLN, paying 1000 for bills alone hearing that it's cheap... you know what I mean
As always, your observations ase 110% true and 120% insightful. Love them! When people say Poland is cheap, I always get mixed feelings: I know they like it and I'd live to share their enthusiasm, but on the back off my head there's this thought: are we talking about the same country? Or maybe I am just so broke?
Thank you! I try really hard to give insights that are not always obvious. It helps that I have a foreigner's perspective, but I have to give Karolina (Vigo's Mom) has A LOT of credit. She helps me tremendously! For example. That VERY COMMENT about "cheap" was her observation.
I've just realized I do the same thing when I go to Ukraine :( It's still cheaper than Poland but it would be nicer not to make such comments. Thanks :)
Yeah, it's always a matter of perspective... I made the same comments though, when I moved from a big city to smaller one - "Oh, how cheap this restaurant is! Much more affordable than back in Kraków" XD I know I sounded snobbish, but it's hard to stop yourself.
Years ago, an old salesman that trained me told me to never refer to a product as ‘cheap’ and to use ‘inexpensive’ instead. He said people associate ‘cheap’ as poor quality and ‘inexpensive’ as a good value. Not sure how accurate that is, but I’ve been using his advice since.
In smaller cities the grandma's just newd to strat the conversation with "oh, you will not believe, you know Who died this week?" Its conneceted to the complaining mode
Oh my, i saw this video by accident, but it’s first time when i see someone is talking about poles and Poland in... good way. I just started to cry when you was talking about sharing in war times. I didn’t love in this times but i felt like i was and... i haven’t heared beafore that someone can talk about my country in good way. Thank you 💖
I was born in Argentina and I currently live in Argentina but, my grandmother parents came from poland during WWII. And is so funny how you describe my grandmother, she is exactly what you said in the video haha
it work as well when it's a short 'no' I think it might be a shortened version of word "ano" which is often used by some "ano" is an actual word meaning "yes" for our western slavic cousins - Czech and Slovaks :D
@@StopTeoriomSpiskowym This word is also used in all Central and east European languages. It comes from Latin, and means something that isn't straight. In metaphorical meaning to a woman who doesn't walk the right way.
Do Polski przyjechali Japończycy. Prowadzą rozmowy, a w sąsiednim pomieszczeniu ktoś się strasznie wydziera. Zaciekawiony Japończyk pyta - "Czemu ten gość tak głośno mówi? A bo on z Gdańskiem rozmawia! A to nie może przez telefon?".
Pamiętam jak mieliśmy jedyny telefon w bloku. Sąsiad przychodził i zamawiał rozmowę międzynarodową z Moskwą. Po kilkunastu albo kilkudziesięciu godzinach ktoś oddzwaniał i mówił że będzie rozmowa. Wtedy biegliśmy po sąsiada który przez cały ten czas siedział w domu i czekał nigdzie nie wychodząc. Potem darł tak ryja podczas rozmowy jakby musiał tam bez telefonu przekazać informacje. 😂

That's the aptest thing I heard in ages, and I'm a Pole. You present stuff from a different perspective and you're just feeling it, focusing on the really good things that we as a nation have to offer. I liked those "kind interruptions", but after hearing it I would call a 'complementary comment'. The purpose of doing is this is to supplement someone's statement with an intention to just make it more meaningful. Subscribed.
The tradition of Christmas Eve in Poland is kinda dry, and i mean that we made additional place for strangers but rarely we let starngers inside our houses / apartments, Really nice vid man. Greetings from Poland :3
Polish language encourages creating long sentences, thus making it often necessary to cut in the middle of a sentence. It happens even in colleges. No one feels disrespected.

Your videos are great to watch and they are really interesting and entertaining.
It's so interesting to hear a foreign's point of view about our culture. I don't get mad listening to you because I travel a lot and I discover others cultures too. It's amazing that we can compare and draw some conclusions. We are different.:) We need such videos on yt. Once I watched a video of a French girl complaining about Polish impoliteness- as a French, she eats dinner at 10 pm. The restaurats around her accomodation were already closing. She was furious that a waiter told her : "Sorry, we are closed". She didn't understand culture differences...

It's not like you shouldn't refuse your granny's offer for another course of meal (although you probably shouldn't), but it's simply impossible - she literally won't let you go unless you're so full you can barely move.
Or never refuse when your granda is giving you money.I tried but this is impossible.

Funfact about loudness - main reason for that is sound complexity of the language. If you don't speak loud, you can be easily misunderstood by others. Polish movies are great example of that, sound mix is usually really poor, because there is so much interference of ambient and enviroment sounds with sounds as "ś, ź, ć". If we don't speak loud, we sound like mumble 😄

There's one thing. You say that when you hear a Pole complaining, you should complain too so he feels understood. But before doing that, don't forget about previously mentioned rule - consistency. Don't say that your day was shitty if it actually wasn't.
But, you can say something like that happened to you before. And that you understand, because it was horrible for you too.

One of the most difficult things for me was to convince the British and Spanish people I worked with that I didn't mean to be rude when I wasn't discussing the current weather outside or other meaningless things with them during a lunch break. Poles rarely chat for no real reason or about 'nothing'. We like to talk about something that makes sense, is at least a bit important to us, but discussing the sunny/cloudy/windy day or what he/she will have for lunch today, just to maintain some verbal contact is usually not our thing.
very well described! haha
Exactly! Our generation hates small-talk. What is interesting is that the generation of our parents (people who were born and raised in communism) loves it and feels that is natural. And of course, after small-talk, they complain together - on the weather, government, prices, etc. :) It's not that simple as it looks. :)

If I could I would go as far as I can from here. Poland is being destroyed by people blinded by hateful ideology. If you are not a white, catholic, heterosexual male (yes, even females are getting in trouble now, some of their rights have been taken away) you might be simply beaten up. Also it's better to speak polish than other language when you walk alone. Poland is not a safe place now. I wish I could stay here but probably I'll be forced to leave because of the political propaganda. I wouldn't recommend visiting Poland these days.

The Poles that manned the Destroyer ORP Piorun. Ever since I learned of this Polish crew with giant balls of solid brass? I have admired the Polish people. Here is an excerpt from Polish naval history.
“ORP Piorun was a Polish destroyer that was part of the British Navy when they engaged the Bismarck. She was sent in with the British destroyers early in the morning of May 30, 1941 to harass the Bismarck and keep the ship occupied while the rest of the British fleet caught up. The entire time the ORP Piorun was firing at the Bismarck, it was using it's signal lights to send the message "I AM A POLE." - message "I AM A POLE."”.
Really specific behavior of Polish people is that every time someone mentions us in the Internet or at least shows any reference to our country, Polish people are going nuts and are happy that someones from abroad sees us. Kinda weird, but happens every time
Cause deep down we feel inferior and long for any form of validation from others

The most important rule: Don't talk about politics. That can cause you a lot of trouble when you meet someone who is supporting other political party. In the most extreme cases you can even get beaten up.
When someone asks you who you were voting for or who do you support just say that you didn't vote or you are not into politics. It'll be best for you, trust me.
You can talk about politics but you must know about you are talk

If you're a good citizen it is your duty to talk about politics. Without dialogue about politics you end up neck deep in shit, which is Polands situation at the moment. "You might not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you". So put that damn instagram down for a moment and learn some shit about real world. And then confront it with someone's else opinion, because maybe you didn't check your facts, or maybe someone else didn't check her/his facts.

I'm a Pole and I don't agree with this "loud speaking" point. In fact we are likely speaking quietly, especially via phone. I'd say, one who is speaking loudly has probably some problems with connection.
Niestety, ludzie - a w szczególności kobiety - mówią do siebie głośno kiedy chcą pokazać, że jakiś temat jest dla nich bardzo zajmujący. To nie problemy, to po prostu emocje. Ludzie mówią też głośno, żeby w grupie ktoś zwrócił większą uwagę i im przypadkiem nie przerwał przy okazji. Chcą być w stadzie ,,przebojowi,, i uniknąć oskarżeń o ,,szaromyszkowanie,, nudziarstwo i brak zaangażowania. Tylko wątpię, że to akurat cecha Polaków. Styl komunikacji i potrzeba przynależności nie ma narodowości.
I agree with Maverral, Poles are definitely not loud in public in general, unless drunk or having really good time. I spent last 14 years in Spain and I can tell you, Poles whisper in the street when compared to a typical Spanish person, especially here in the south (Andalusia).
You're right! I think the German people are more loudest then we are.
We're even quieter, when we want to discuss something outlaw, which is common (unfortunately, because of our poorly written laws), or we even say "it's not a talk we can do through phone" (roughly translated) which means we have to meet in person and discuss it. We're very careful with saying things through phone because of lots of years under communist government, when lots of phones were tapped and you didn't know if yours weren't intentionally, or by accident

Years ago, an old salesman that trained me told me to never refer to a product as ‘cheap’ and to use ‘inexpensive’ instead. He said people associate ‘cheap’ as poor quality and ‘inexpensive’ as a good value. Not sure how accurate that is, but I’ve been using his advice since.

Polish language encourages creating long sentences, thus making it often necessary to cut in the middle of a sentence. It happens even in colleges. No one feels disrespected.
EDIT: THIS VIDEO NOW HAS POLISH SUBTITLES ADDED.

I watched most of your films. As you yourself have noticed, there are other people on UA-cam who raise similar topics about Poland... and yet I think that you really stand out with high intelligence, a great sense of humor and an in-depth look at intercultural differences. Your videos are great to watch and they are really interesting and entertaining.
Smutne jest to że gdy się tu żyje zauważa się więcej złych rzeczy niż tych dobrych ;-;
Bo Polska ma więcej złego niż dobrego
@@bakatsu4255 jako kraj nie jako ludzie tak
Przestaniecie w końcu narzekać na ojczyznę? Ile można? Każdy kraj ma swoje plusy i minusy!
To jest cecha polaka nie polski
To nie kraj jest chujowy, tylko ludzie :/
It's so interesting to hear a foreign's point of view about our culture. I don't get mad listening to you because I travel a lot and I discover others cultures too. It's amazing that we can compare and draw some conclusions. We are different.:) We need such videos on yt. Once I watched a video of a French girl complaining about Polish impoliteness- as a French, she eats dinner at 10 pm. The restaurats around her accomodation were already closing. She was furious that a waiter told her : "Sorry, we are closed". She didn't understand culture differences...
