Swarzędz is my city! I lived there for 25 years. Now I live in Norway, but I will return there someday. It is funny to watch someone walking around my city because not many UA-camrs recorded there. It is even funnier that I am in your country and you in mine 😂 Respect for learning this extremely difficult language at a communicative level! After 2 years in Norway, I do not speak Norwegian like that 🫣
Thats awesome! I can imagine it is a little bit odd to see some random Norwegian in Swarzędz😅 This is basically the reaction I want, when people watch my videos. Thank you for watching. I am glad you liked the video, and keep trying to learn Norwegian :)
love the vids, it's nice to see someone new to polish too and somehow it helps me to see someone else at a similar level to me in the language. As a native english speaker Polish is tough!!
Hey Stuart, Really enjoy watching your vlogs. Your English is great btw, and at first I thought you were an American 🙂. Your Polish only needs slight polishing. Looking forward to your next vlogs. Cheers from FLA USA
ua-cam.com/video/auKf1JhlQOE/v-deo.htmlsi=tAHQmpEqhQi9hLwK Powyzej drogiNorwegu masz filmik nakrecony kamera vhs, jak Polska wygladala na przykladzie Łeby w 1985 roku. Mam wrazenie, ze wiekszosc obcokrajowcow z Zachodu mlodego pokolenia nie ma swiadomosci jaki syf byl u nas 40 lat temu. Gdybys wtedy przyjechal z Norwegii doznalbys kulturowego szoku i ale bylbys krolem zycia bo za pare dolcow stolowalbys sie w najlepszych knajpach a w Pewexie bylo pelne zaopatrzenie za dolary. Albo za korony norweskie😊
@@RoamingwithStu What I mean is that some foreigners now praise Poland, and rightly so, for its progress, wealth and purity, but I have the impression that they are not aware of what Poland looked like 40 years ago, e.g. This is a film from 1985 shot with an amateur VHS camera, most likely by someone who came from abroad. , showing a typical small seaside town like Łeba. A good example of showing social and political changes compared to today's Poland. The times of the Polish People's Republic are shown not from a history textbook or from clichéd information for uninformed foreigners. Dirt, stench and poverty, only communist cars on the roads, gray in the shop windows. Compare what Norway looked like then? In addition, the guy drives a new Mercedes 190 there for contrast. It's as if you were traveling on the streets today in Batman's car or in a spaceship. If you had bought goods in Poland with your Norwegian salary, you would have been a rich man, because everything was incredibly cheap for Westerners. I still remember these times from my childhood. Can you believe that this is what Poland looked like?
@@jarekjaroslaw3307 Thanks for sharing that. I wasn't aware of these aspects of Poland earlier in my life. However, after living in Poznań for almost four years as a student, I learned a lot about your country and its history. I also lived in a block apartment on the outskirts of Poznań, which was constructed around 40 years ago. I'm happy to see Poland doing well today, you have been through a lot. 😊
@@RoamingwithStu In response to my comment, you speak in trivial patterns, like a typical foreigner who doesn't really understand Polish nuances. I didn't experience anything traumatic personally, and I have fantastic memories of my childhood at that time. Many Poles feel sentimental and longing for the communist times, because everyone had a job, went on half-free holidays, life was complicated when you had few things to choose from. What I meant was the overall economy, and it was indeed a ruin at that time, but the real disaster came in the early 1990s with the political transformation, when it was necessary to switch to a free market economy. From 1990 to around 2006. Unemployment - 18.%, robberies and gangs in the streets, debt, lack of prospects, theft of national wealth. The times of communism and those years of "freedom" were prosperous. People who come to Poland now are not made aware of this, they just say that after 1989, communism collapsed and prosperity reigned in Poland. People used to get the apartment you lived in under communism, or they were entitled to it after many years, but today it costs a lot of money and few people can afford it. I wonder what the difference was in Norway 40 years ago and now? Was it better or worse then?
Thank you so much for watching! I love making these videos ❤
Poland is so dang beautiful! Hope to see more videos from you soon
I agree. I have more upcoming videos soon. Thanks for watching 😊

I'm glad you liked it mate. It's a hard language. Thanks for watching 😊
Sklep meblowy (sells furniture) . Meblowany means that a house/or flat is not EMPTY but there is furniture in it(as a part of an equipment).
I understand. It's so easy to make those grammatical mistakes 😂 thanks.
Haha, my area! 😂 It's very weird watching foreign person walking around and filming 😅 I hope you liked my city! 🤗

I thought Poles sit only on poles.
Funny 😛
Isn't Poland like Germany's smaller sibling with disorders?
Ale z cb troll
Isn't Germany Turkish now?
Great video Stu. Your polish is better and your interactions with people are interesting!
Appreciate that 😊
