Which Polish stereotypes are the most true according to Poles (and expats)? And which are totally outdated? I went to Krakow and Warsaw to find out. Stay until the end cause I test Polish people on their love of vodka.

Sorry for the late upload everyone! Hope you like the Polish themed videos π I went to Krakow and Warsaw to film this, and honestly, I felt that the people of Krakow were much, much friendlier than Warsaw. But I guess it's also the smaller city vibe.
Also, stay until the end to see me test Poles on their love of vodka π
Good to know
Bottoms up πΈ
Poland seems like an introverts paradise. I'm moving right now!!!
Also there's no sexual harrasement in the streets π
I lived in Poland for 5 years, it truly is a introvert paradise π although I am not but I admit it about Poland
It may seem that way, but in reality, if you're not extroverted, people often assume something is wrong. Combined with mediocre organization, you frequently need to communicate to resolve issues. This situation often leads to a state where being extroverted becomes more beneficial.
I remember once a person from Poland saying "we smile a lot" and then Marina "Polish people smile a lot ? What ? I don't believe you" π
Yes. I did a "Polish smiles" video on Instagram π
Poland seems a beautiful place to spend some vacation
Well, it's safe thats a big plus
Alcohol prices are fairly low
A lot of tourist locations have english captions
Some older generation have hard time with english which can cause some troubles with tickets, other than that its great place to come for a week or two just to see some places and chill
@@bkjvk thank you;)
In general Europeans donβt smile without a genuine reason(Especially eastern or northern europeans),while north Americans are just accustomed to smile as a way of being polite
In the US, as children we are taught a saying and it goes like this: "smile and the whole world smiles with you". In most of northern European countries (not just Poland) this is considered insincere. Southern Europe is different, you'll see people in Italy smiling walking down the street.
What, Insincere just being hospitable, good-mannered and enjoying sunshine, flowers, music, pretty girls walking down the street? For us Latinos is so hard to understand this point of view. Is it forbidden to enjoy life, and when are you supposed to emjoy it, after death?
I am from greece and i find insincere and a trick if someone smiles at me without being my friend. I feel like he wants something from me and uses this technique to lure me in
Marina I have to say you look much happier out and about doing this style of video. We love them. Keep it up and all the best as always from the UK.
Some nice people and couples in the videoβ¦kudos
I used to be like that long time ago. People already told me I could be a good bodyguard. But with time I learned smile is important. It brings people closer and open a lot of doors. I got to be an English teacher it is good to smile. If you have a good smile, you go really far. At least, in Brazil, it is good to have a smile
As a German I see in ths video many similarities between the german and the polish culture.
so true :D
Don't you fucking dare compare my culture to your failing, jew-eating society
Yes so true ! Polish also like to complain also Germans always complain
U kill a lot of innocent people so your Culture is familiar to this one who don't die from your grandfathers :)
