RE: First tourist tip for krakow!
Coffee is terribly expensive, chatting to the worker in an ecologic cafe he told me the wage can even be 10-15 zln, and a coffee is costing 10zln! Same price as a glass of organic wine!
In the supermarkets things arnt really cheap, nor clothes either. No wonder the polish people go away to work,and I really dont blame them one bit 😂

Buy a jar of nescafe for 13 zl for 200gramm then and stop using stupidly expensive cafes lol. Krakow is a tourist trap, you pay for that privilege, if you go to katowice you will see a huge drop in prices of everything.
yeh i see the coffee in the supermarkets for 10zln :) but a good time to start drinking tea again anyhow! I was just trying to get some smoke which entailed sitting in a bar :) i go low key now though, get a sauna month pass tomorrow and will go every day for it, thats cheap indeed! 89 zln I think or 99 I forget!
Then sop bloody complaining about high prices in your first days lol.
Haha well, im just shocked thats all😂
I have polish friends all over and they all said like, man you need like 10euro a day to live in poland, but i know im in the expensive part, plus for me to live like this as normal people do, is just so alien, i didnt do this lifestyle for near on a decade 😂

Live like a tourist, pay like one. :-)
true true! I did think I had enough money to do the tourist thing but hmmm .... lol
Tis a bloody expensive way to go for months, a few weeks maybe but months hmmmmmmmmmm.
Yeh it seems so lol! I got like the equivelent of 150zln a day for 2months.. But great thing is i would rather smoke a joint than drink everyday 😊 got clothes with me and dont need to go out much.. Im here chilling, dodnt come here for a mad one 😁
Im happy to learn some polish and just chill out 😂

I wont run out of money,but before i came i was told the wage was like 3euro an hour and thought that say an hours massage would be 5 euro max, had visions of getting some good therapy and using sauna and just eating out alot lol.. All good though, im getting daily dividends whilst im here from tronbet.io, around 50-60usd per day so all good lol

I did find a place where they charged me 10 zln for a jd and coffee, but i guess they made a mistake and forgot the JD :)
Jack Daniels is the most stupidly over charged for drink you can buy here, especially in Krakow, I bought a double there and it cost over £10. Better off buying a bottle from Auchan.
And if you want cheap good quality clothes, find a Auchan supermarket, 2 quid for a tshirt 5 quid for a shirt, shoes 5 quid ish a pair.
I brought clothes with me, it felt very strange to pack a rucksack with just clothes instead of hobo survival kit lol.. thanks for the tip!
A lot of people here buy clothes, even designer label stuff from secondhand shops. The clothes come mostly from the UK of throw away. My good lady picked me up a UK price £200 coat with a dodgy zip that she replaced, and she paid £3 for it, I wear it as it bothers me not. :-)
Its very clear here of the inequality of peoples wealth, ive seen already the rich polish people getting paid like 20x the average wage. Poland seems just after a week, like a fucking hard country to be born into. I guess its still scarred just like germany from the communism era?

You just hit the nail on the head.
And also the fact they are not wanting large corporations here, just look what they have done to the rest of the EU! corporations that is!
yep , I fully respect that there are not so many NIKE and Addidas, gucci, armarni and all that shite adverts or the fact as I saw in auchun and other supermarkets that the Aspertame drinks arnt loaded up at the casse and chewing gums ect with are also all loaded with aspertame which are also all advertised at every busstop as is in other countrys. I like that there are hardly no mainstream big cooperations stuffing adverts on every flat vertical surface possible.
It was relieving to see in Auchun, on the end of the shopping aisles mound's of regular Pepsi and a tiny section for pepsi max instead of just pepsi max as is in norway for example..
Yes they are not into gum and diet cokes here, and most eat at home not at restaurants when you get out of Krakow you will see what I mean.
Wow not so good then.
