Politics and Elections in Kraków, Lesser Poland: What do you need to know?

Here are some tips before settling down in this traditional, somewhat conservative city. Do not expect any overtly friendly attitudes from the locals, especially not the older generation. Most of them cannot speak English and those who can, don’t have the confidence to practice. Therefore, my most important tip- learn Polish as quickly as possible. You will immediately feel more welcome and the locals will appreciate your willingness to try and speak their language. My second tip, and perhaps even more important than the first, find a love for vodka. It’s everywhere and forms an integral part of this country and its history.
