      For me the Polish people is the most attractive part of living in Poland and most valuable asset of the country. In terms of geography I would prefer south-east of France ;). In terms of politics I would prefer the Swiss system with direct democracy, and staying outside of the EU. If I were into politics I would copy the Swiss state organisation and implemented it in Poland, especially in terms of judiciary system, education and tax law. Unfortunately I could not copy the geography of Provence-Alpes-Maritime ;).
      In terms of cuisine I would take more from Balkan, Greek and Arabic cuisines - but this already happens thanks to migrations.

    Warsaw is more green than gray. It's the greenest capital in Europe. However, it means that it gets gray in winter. Since he comes from California he must be accustomed to sunny days all year round. The Chopin concerts in Łazienki Park are twice every Sunday from May to September. They're free and performed by best pianists in the world because Warsaw is also home to the Warsaw Chopin Competition which is like Oscars for pianists. However, there are many many more open air concerts of all genres. Poles love music, and not only in summer. I.e. in January there's always the WOŚP concert.

      Jaki dramat 20 lat temu? Jeździłeś wtedy po Polsce? Bo ja tak, włócząc się w najdalsze zakątki na motorze, i widziałem głównie bardzo już zaawansowane zmiany na lepsze. Lata 90. bardzo zmieniły Polskę i już w 2000 z dawnej szarzyzny i skutków kryzysu lat 80. (szczególnie w infrastrukturze) nic nie pozostało. Oczywiście były duże problemy (ale i dziś ich nie brakuje), jak wymuszana praca na czarno, oszustwa podatkowe, fatalny stosunek do pracowników w usługach i przemyśle. To, co wtedy było okropne to wysokie oficjalne bezrobocie (przy czym sporo osób pracowało na czarno) i bardzo niskie płace (z wyjątkiem płacy specjalistów i tzw. pracowników funkcyjnych). Niemniej mówić, ze 20 lat temu to był :dramat, to robic z siebie głupca. Dramat to był 30 lat temu, w 1994 i 1995, świeżo po sprywatyzowaniu i odchudzeniu z załóg wielkich zakładów przemysłowych i rozwiązaniu PGR-ów, i w samym środku kryzysu złych kredytów bankowych (przy czym to drugie rok później zażegnano, tworząc tak zdrowy system bankowy, że pomogło nam to przejść sucha stopa przez światowy kryzys finansowy w latach 2007-2008). A w 2004 mieliśmy już od ponad 8 nie tylko zdrowy, ale i supernowoczesny (cyfrowo) system bankowy, mnóstwo małych i średnich firm, wygraną walkę z tzw. urzędniczą korupcją, dostosowaliśmy funkcjonowanie kraju do norm europejskich i żyło się tu wygodnie, jeśli tylko ktoś się postarał.

Besides springs and summers in Poland are amazing, wonderfull. Weather is warm, even hot, rivers, trees, generally clean landscapes. Big minuses are autumns and winters.

    To be fair, many things he mentions are true for most of Europe when compared to the US, like better work life balance or higher food quality, as well as close proximity of many cool places. Europe is relatively small (if we exclude Russia and Alaska Europe is 2 times smaller than USA) and it's just agglomeration of many countries full of well preserved history.
    The thing is that in minds on many Americans Eastern Europe is this gray, mundane communistic dystopia, when in fact today there is no that much of a difference between countries like Poland or Czechia and Western Europe in term of quality of life.

    • @publicminx

      Europe is (slightly) bigger than the US, and the European Russian part is with ca. 110 mio people (in difference to Alaska with a population of 732000) by far more populated than the rest of Russia in Asia. Also the US has many tiny states (not every state is big). If all of Europe was one country and every state in the US was an own country slowly starting to unite and speak about the US as a whole as common ground then we heard now how small the US states are compared to Europe. Keep also in mind that 80% of the US citizen live in the Eastern half (the right side) of the US and that the Northern half is of very low density (while Europe has more than twice the population). I say this because you have the wrong impression that there is just a 'tiny part' of Europe in focus and the rest is basically empty - while in reality thats rather true for the US. Europe has an Hotspot in and around Germany/Central Europe but still the differences are less extreme than in the US. Long story short: many perspectives have more something to do with a psychological/habitual focus (also due to the shape differences of the land mass) than the reality ....

    EF English Proficiency Ranking 2023: Poland #13. Thats a really good place (its a global ranking - one could say that all countries among the first 20 are good/ok). Many former (political) Eastern Europe countries are catching up very well. In fact together with the smaller Southern like countries (Greece, Portugal etc.) all the Baltics and many of those 'Eastern' countries like Poland, Czech, Croatia evolved very well - while especially the bigger non-Germanic ones like Spain #35, Italy #35, Russia #41, France #43 are surpassed and/or developed much worse (as also everyone with multiuser online game or similar experiences knows). Thats also true for Latin America (which in general are very bad with foreign languages - much worse than the US/Canada).

Poland has many great things, far beyond what is mentioned or even perceivable by the bloke in the video (nice restaurants, low prices, cheap educated people). But we humans only see that what they are looking for and that what we are familiar with.
      Poland is exception. That the country is how it is now despite that not too long ago, the country was obliterated, much of land was taken and people forced to migrate, many children like my grandfather were enslaved by the Nazis and then finally Communism. Then, despite never having the room to develop without being invaded by one of the neighbours / without communism, the Polish people arise from this all strong, intelligent and with strong cultural identity and people view them solely as cheap high quality labour.

    Do you really have the right to life as a German? especially after what your Prime Minister said today - thus betraying France and Great Britain.
    According to Scholz, the use of Taurus long-range cruise missiles requires the assistance and presence of German soldiers on Ukrainian territory. - Everyone who has ever dealt with this system knows this - he explained,
    A German politician revealed that this is what the British and French do with their systems supplied to Ukraine.

    Yes, unless you graduated from a field that was not very fruitful, like Archeology... that's my mistake, but thanks to it I became a welder... Quite a necessary profession, especially with qualifications for gas and heat pipes. But the most important thing is programming. 24-year-olds earn PLN 17,000 each, and I, a fool, earn PLN 6000-7,000. Only I, at the age of 37, will soon be the oldest in the brigade because the rest are 60 years old. You don't become a welder after a course, you become a welder after at least a decade. The software may be faulty and cause losses, but it won't kill a person, and a welding error in the structure will. Instead of going on vacation, I go to work in Norway and Germany because there is a shortage of qualified welders. I understand that everyone prefers to be clean and nice, to work in front of a keyboard, but in 30 years you won't have heating, water or buildings, unless you bring people from third world countries... unless wages change. Trivial, but to be a good builder you also need a lot of knowledge, but even more practice. For comparison... you can train a great programmer in five years, but it takes 10 years to become a average construction worker.

    I understand his satisfaction, but for a Pole who thinks in national terms, it is no pleasure that Poland is a paradise, but only for foreign companies. Polish companies are going bankrupt, Polish industry is practically non-existent, Polish farmers are not profitable to cultivate the land. Only large foreign corporations can find their place here. There is nothing wrong with foreign capital locating in our hospitable country, but it is happening while simultaneously destroying Polish industry and that is not good.

    Chris, Polish people in their 50s and 60s speak English quite well. The 50-year-olds were at school when communism collapsed, and they started adult life in a country where knowing English made it much easier to start life (and in the 21st century they were 30-40 years old, and they were the ones who were responsible for the international expansion of the Polish economy). In turn, 60-year-olds built the strength of the Polish economy in the 1990s (300% GDP growth in 10 years) and, of course, later, and started their professional careers right after graduation, also in an environment where knowledge of English was a requirement if you wanted to take advantage of the enormous opportunities that were opening up at that time.
    Moreover, during the Polish People's Republic, English was compulsorily taught in secondary schools and colleges, and in many primary schools it was taught from the 6th grade. That is why Polish people in their 70s and 80s often speak English, although only some of them do it quite well. I am not talking about people who did not want to learn foreign languages because under communism they had no motivation to do so. Of course, young people today know English very well and widely, but neither they nor the current generation of 40 and 30-year-olds are the first to know English widely in Poland. 35 years since the fall of communism and the beginning of a very dynamic transformation is a long time, covering already 5 generations (counting every 10 years) or 3 generations (counting on the principle of grandfather-being -young -adult in 90s - teenage grandchild today), when it comes to professional activity immediately after finishing school, in completely new, dynamic circumstances.
    And as for Polish programmers/IT ppl and so on: they were also valued very much during communism. So much, that graduates of computer science or cybernetics at Polish universities in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s did not need to have their diplomas recognized in the USA, their diplomas were considered among the best in the world and they were very sought-after graduates. Moreover, Poles were among the first to build (in the world) modern computers, next to the Americans (in the second half of the 1950s), and Polish mathematics departments have been at the forefront of the world for as long as university rankings have existed). For example, the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Warsaw is often in the top five of these rankings, it sometimes took first place. To be fair, I would like to add that IT specialists from Russia and Ukraine are also highly valued around the world, especially graduates of Moscow and Kiev universities, where the level of mathematics is also very high. There is even talk of a "Slavic school of IT", which involves a very in-depth, stubborn and creative approach to solving problems, among others, thanks to a very strong mathematical foundation.
    This is especially important in the case of challenges such as IT security, military, management of complex operations or the financial industry, where progress must be very fast and errors or omissions are very dangerous.

Compulsory was Russian from 5th grade, and second foreign language (might be German, French, English - in technical schools German prevailed) from above 8th grade (above secondary school in US terms).
