My post in Canada is ending and am being assigned to Poland, Warsaw to be specific.
I will be moving there for 2 years and need general advice on what to do. I am a Polish citizen and do speak/read/write in Polish. I have never lived in Poland and was wondering a few different things.
One, where should i live in Poland and how much should i pay? I would like to keep the cost down and do not mind a small commute to work, >30 minutes. I would be interested in a 1 bedroom apartment and i get confused when i try and do searches. I have a feeling my definition of an apartment is different to that of a poles.
Two, what should my method of transportation be. Is purchasing a car in poland a good idea? purchasing one is a neighboring country? or should i import my own.
Three, what is the cost of living? What should i expect to pay a month in Warsaw? Food, housing, transportation, general expenses? How does that compare to canada and the us?
Last but not least does anyone know about the gun laws in Poland? I have been a gun owner/enthusiast all my life and would like to continue that in poland, what are the laws on owning/carrying a gun?
I am researching this as much as possible and would like to thank you for any advice you may have, it means alot. Thank you
