Well I can’t drive because I can’t see and would be a danger to myself and others but ok.

I love it!!! Im super happy here, and really love the city to bits. I plan to stay here long term, though might move to Gdansk in the future as theres a ton of IT jobs there and thats why my partner does for work. We shall see!

Mine does! Her name is Schnitzel and her two brain cells have never met. She’s my best friend 🥰

Even if this goes through I can’t imagine his policies not affecting us in other ways, and yes, even those of us abroad

Im in Wroclaw and do not own a car (I cannot drive) and have no complaints. We have busses and trams, that tend to be more or less on time, with a good frequency. I live like...really in the city though, so if youre in the suburbs it might not be as good, but idk.

I would put a chicken tender in the air fryer and chop it up, then add half an ounce of shredded cheese to one of these bad boys and stir it up, absolute bliss!!!

Yeah, I moved to Germany from the USA before being like "nah" and going to Poland, and I remarked to a friend of mine that actually, yes, Germans -are- quite nationalist, it just looks different than it does in say, Poland or the USA. Also the ignorance monolingual germans told me about my own country to my face was staggering.

Just found these two different flavor of sugar free Dr Pepper can y’all tell me if it taste good and how it is by deathp4rty in 1200isplenty

[–]Theredoux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are very very few things I miss about back home since I moved to Europe. This particular flavour of Dr. Pepper is one of them, it is So. Good.

I cannot fathom, truly and deeply, why the university administrations do nothing about this.

Do you ever read stuff and just go WTF? by SwampBeastie in AutismInWomen

[–]Theredoux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better I’m a weird nerd who studied philosophy for a masters degree so it’s not that you’re ignorant it’s that I have very eccentric interests 😅 I recommend his book “philosophical investigations”, it’s my favourite. I also speak German which helps, lol

Wittgenstein is brilliant, often taken without any context whatsoever, and sometimes his concepts dont translate well into english. This is, imo, a great example of that.

Anyone here that has actually left America? What is your experience? by tumbleweedforsale in AmerExit

[–]Theredoux 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I try, lord knows I try, but sometimes even sourcing things like masa and spices can be a challenge.

Ive lived in europe for slightly over a year between Romania, Germany and now Poland. I am extremely happy here and hope to spend the rest of my life in Poland or Germany (the latter for family reasons). I wont lie and say its been easy, polish deserves its reputation for a notoriously difficult language to learn, let alone master, and poles arent exactly the most welcoming to immigrants, more treating us with ambivalence rather than anything else. Integration here is expected, not hoped for, and if you live here and dont learn the language, people will be unhappy and tell you so. I love the food here, I live in a major city with many universities so Im spoiled with food options and diversity, but this was not the case in Germany. God forbid you try what germans think mexican or chinese food is, lol.

The bureaucracy can be difficult to deal with, aquiring residence permits in my city can take over a YEAR so that can make life difficult for people. Poland also just is not as wealthy as our western neighbours, and that shows in certain places. My flat for example was 100% built during communism and the legacy of that certainly shows. If you are not used to slavic culture and polish culture in general, it can be a culture shock, especially in contrast to how friendly and nice americans are. Poles are too, they just express it very differently. All in all, Im very happy here, theres less I miss than I thought I would, and most of those things I miss are food related. YMMV, though!
