Why I decided to move to Bydgoszcz: my journey to a new life in Poland

Almost a year ago, my life in Georgia was flowing along its own course, and thoughts of moving to Poland seemed distant, although sometimes ideas about living in Europe swirled in my head more as a dream than as a reality. Georgia is a magnificent country with diverse beauty, where living is quite affordable. However, time passed, and I began to ponder that staying in this country for a long time might not be the wisest choice. As a tourist, it is indeed nice here, but for long-term living, I would like people to be more responsible towards their environment.

The streets are piled high with garbage, there is a growing number of stray animals, and the homeless are struggling to make ends meet, as Georgia's economy largely relies on tourism. The Georgian lifestyle, with its relaxed pace, has also started to bore me. Interacting with the locals made it clear that I probably won't be able to fit into their society, as our views on mutual relationships and responsibility differ significantly.

Changes in plans

Exactly a year ago, my boyfriend decided that continuing his education in Georgia was not practical. He was studying for a second higher medical degree. Since his plans included moving to Europe, we faced the question of choosing a country to which we could go. It was important for us that life in the new country was affordable, and I wanted to make the move regardless of his decisions.

Searching for a university

It was also necessary to find out which university would be willing to accept him for studies. We sent out a lot of letters to various educational institutions and ended up with three options:

• Alone in Romania
• Two in Poland - in Katowice and Bydgoszcz

Romania was immediately removed from the list, and Katowice seemed less attractive to us due to serious pollution issues and various industrial zones. However, Bydgoszcz caught our attention: there aren't many immigrants there, and its cost of living compared to other major cities is quite reasonable. Additionally, the city features calm and green neighborhoods.

Migration routes to Poland

This is how my search for migration paths to Poland began. I compiled a list of possible options. Language courses came in first place. This option seems simple and economical, but in recent months, there have been more cases of visa refusals or entry restrictions. The next option was business incubators. This offer was particularly interesting to me as a freelancer, since business incubators simplify the process of doing business by handling financial transactions with clients, which significantly streamlines work processes.

Conclusion of contracts

In this situation, the client enters into two agreements: one with me and the second with the business incubator. The payment for the services rendered is transferred directly to the account of the business incubator in Poland. After the funds are received, taxes and fees for the provided services are deducted, which can range from €40 to €50 per month, depending on the specific incubator.

After that, the remaining amount is transferred to my account in a Polish bank. The main advantage of this approach is that I don't have to handle accounting and document collection myself. However, it's important to consider the drawbacks: in this option, taxes can be quite high, especially if the work is done with clients outside of Europe. Moreover, such business incubators operate in several European countries, and I see this possibility as a backup plan, since the visa issued based on work through the incubator is a work visa.

Educational opportunities in Poland

Studying in Poland offers a wealth of opportunities to gain knowledge both at universities and in specialized schools completely free of charge. However, for this to happen, the programs must be conducted in Polish.

I realized that pursuing a third higher education in full-time study might be challenging for me, and I came across an interesting alternative option — vocational schools.

This format of education attracted me because it involves only two years of part-time study per week, which allows for a successful combination of studying and working.

Immigration programs in Poland

Regarding immigration programs in Poland, it should be noted that there are opportunities to obtain a residence permit based on one's own business, with an investment of at least 50,000 euros in about seven months. Of course, the most obvious route is to obtain a work visa.

In Poland, there are many vacant positions, many of which are open to people without extensive professional skills or with vocational education. The wage level ranges from 13 to 20 zlotys per hour, which is approximately equivalent to €2.8–4.3. Additionally, work on weekends is paid at double the rate.

The typical work week includes 8 to 12 hours a day, with work being available for five or six days. An advantage is that employers actively issue invitations and contracts, offer budget accommodation, and partially cover food expenses.

However, the main drawback is that the job listings are not related to the work I am currently doing, and I do not want to leave my current job.

Choosing a polytechnic school

Having considered all possible options, I chose a polytechnic school. Of course, I had doubts, as life in Poland is more expensive compared to Georgia. Moreover, I will need to quickly learn Polish and find time for classes.

However, the desire to change my life and experience something new overcame my doubts, especially when I discovered appealing educational opportunities. As a result, I started gathering the necessary information and documents.

What is a polytechnic school?

The polytechnic school in Poland is a vocational institution that corresponds to our concept of a college and operates on the principle of po liceum — "after high school".

Training duration and areas of study

The duration of studies in educational institutions varies, with the length of the educational process ranging from one year to two and a half years, depending on the chosen field. Upon completion of the course, you will have a qualification in one of the many applied specialties.

Examples of professions

For example, among professions in the administrative field, roles such as the following can be mentioned:

• service specialist
• administrator
• postal and financial services worker
• assistant in the film industry
• florist

In the field of medicine, there are also many professions represented, such as:

• dental assistant
• masseur
• hygienist
• podiatrist
• occupational therapy specialist
• medical guardian
• optical technician

I am particularly drawn to fields related to medicine, especially podiatry and occupational therapy. In Belarus, it is difficult to find similar conditions for obtaining such specialties with comparable privileges, which became the main factor in choosing Poland. Although I did not want to leave Belarus, I discovered attractive opportunities for moving to Poland.

Advantages of the city of Bydgoszcz

The city of Bydgoszcz, located on the picturesque banks of the Brda and Vistula rivers, offers a variety of advantages for students of vocational schools. One of the significant benefits of studying here is that it is free. If the educational institution is public, you won't have to spend your own money on tuition.

However, it is important to carefully review the terms of the contract with the educational institution, as there may be additional fees in some cases, including:

• payment for retaking exams
• fines for absences
• expenses for additional study materials

In Poland, you can find both completely free public vocational schools and paid institutions that have a non-public status. In the case of the latter, the cost of education remains quite affordable, ranging from approximately 200 to 300 zlotys, which corresponds to 45–65 euros per semester.

Admission process

The admission process to polytechnic institutions is organized quite simply: there is no need to take entrance exams, it is enough to have a certificate of complete secondary education. Alternatively, you can provide a diploma from a vocational school or college, but you will also need to include a transcript with grades.

Some educational institutions may accept a university diploma if the certificate has been lost and cannot be restored. It is best to inquire about the document requirements directly with the school.

Training process

The educational process can vary in different institutions. Students studying part-time usually attend classes every two weeks on weekends. In the case of full-time education, classes may be held, for example, six to seven hours on weekends and additionally one or two evenings on weekdays for two to three hours.

There is also the possibility that classes will only take place on weekdays, but with an evening schedule from three to five hours. This is due to the fact that the majority of students in such institutions are working adults who wish to combine their studies with their jobs.

To be allowed to take the exam, it is necessary to attend at least 51% of the classes.Usually, it's possible to arrange with the teachers to make up for missed classes by receiving the necessary materials via email.

Obtaining a diploma

As a result, you will receive a diploma that will be recognized and valued in all countries of the European Union.

The importance of an official diploma

It is important to understand that the diploma issued to you must be on the official letterhead of the Ministry of Education of Poland (MEN) and should not simply be a copy of a template. To ensure the legitimacy of the educational institution, you need to check if the school is on the list of accredited institutions.

To obtain a certificate of proficiency in the Polish language, you will also need to successfully pass a state exam. If you do not pass the exam on your first attempt, there is an opportunity to retake it, after which you will be issued a diploma confirming your language proficiency at the B1 level. This document will exempt you from having to take a language test when applying for permanent residency or citizenship.

Advantages of polytechnic education

It should be emphasized that the diploma must indeed be issued on the official letterhead of the Ministry of Education. Obtaining an education in polytechnic schools offers a number of advantages, among which the following can be highlighted:

• This training period is equivalent to six years of work experience.
• This could significantly affect the calculation of vacation pay.
• However, the reputation of such training in pension experience is not taken into account.

Opportunities after obtaining a diploma

Moreover, it should be noted that studying in polytechnic schools gives you the opportunity not to be tied to a specific employer. Once you obtain your diploma, you will be able to receive work visas and residence permits without being linked to a particular job. As a result, if you decide to change employers in the future, you won't have to reapply for a visa.

After graduation, you will have nine months to find a suitable job.

Benefits for students

In addition, students of polytechnic schools can expect a variety of privileges, such as:

• Discounts on public transport fares for students up to 26 years old.
• Free state medical insurance (ZUS) for emergencies.

However, it is worth noting that this health insurance is only available to students studying at public institutions. Sometimes you may need to take the initiative and contact the school for information about such options, as the administration may not always inform students about this option.

Adaptation in polytechnic schools

When it comes to large cities like Bydgoszcz, it should be noted that all education in post-secondary schools is conducted in Polish. This becomes an important issue for many applicants who are concerned about adapting to a new language. Much depends on the specific educational institution.

There are polytechnic schools that take into account the language proficiency of students from other countries, and the administration of such schools may offer various language courses. In contrast, in institutions where predominantly local residents study, the language requirements can be significantly stricter, and students are expected to have a high level of Polish, as such schools do not practice leniency.

Personal choice and additional opportunities

Personally, I chose a polytechnic school focused on students and enrolled in "Medicus." If you're interested in a complete list of polytechnic schools, you can find it online, where various options are available.

Obtaining a study visa

If you are interested in the process of obtaining a student visa, it is important to note that it is issued based on enrollment and study at a vocational school, which allows you to apply for a D11 visa. Before making a final decision, it is crucial to thoroughly familiarize yourself with all the aspects and benefits that the education system in Poland offers, in order to avoid unnecessary problems and complications in the future.

Obtaining a student visa in Poland

Obtaining a student visa for studying at a police school in Poland comes with a number of specific features and requirements that differ significantly from a D09 visa. It is important to understand that with this type of visa, you do not automatically gain the right to work in the country. However, in practice, employers do not face major difficulties when hiring foreign employees, but there are some general conditions that need to be taken into account.

Key aspects of obtaining a visa

Another important aspect is that not all police schools have the ability to support the process of obtaining a study visa. Therefore, before submitting your documents, be sure to check with the chosen educational institution whether it can issue an invitation and a contract, which are necessary for applying to the visa center.

These documents must meet the established requirements; in particular, the invitation must confirm that you are already registered as a student or attendee of a specific police school. This may cause certain issues, as many educational institutions are reluctant to change their standard document formats.

Educational institutions that issue documents for visas

Among the educational institutions that will definitely provide the necessary documents to obtain a visa, we can mention:

• Medicus (in Bydgoszcz and Poznań)
• Start and GoWork (in Warsaw)

However, the organizationCosinemay cause some difficulties on these issues. In turn, at the training centerTEBThere are many positive reviews from students about it, so you should be prepared to demonstrate good knowledge of the Polish language, as well as provide a valid visa or residence permit.

Form of study and the likelihood of obtaining a visa

Obtaining a student visa is generally only possible for those enrolled in full-time programs, and the study program must last from two to two and a half years. There are cases where a visa is also issued for part-time students or one-year courses, but it is best to aim for full-time study in advance.

Chances of obtaining a residence permit

Moreover, it is important to be aware that the chance of obtaining a residence permit based on studying at a police school is quite low. In Warsaw, for example, it is practically impossible. To obtain a residence card, you either need to have a significant amount of money in your bank account or a contract for a well-paid job.

Also, keep in mind that studying at a police school does not count when applying for permanent residency, and the time required to process your application for a card can vary from six to seventeen months, during which it will be difficult for you to leave the country. Therefore, it's worth considering whether this decision is justified.

Preparation of documents for a student visa

In the process of preparing documents for obtaining a student visa, the first step will be exchanging information with the school you have chosen. This stage can take quite a long time, especially considering possible delays caused by the pandemic.

The first step involves filling out an online application on your educational institution's website, such as Medicus, related to your chosen specialty. After some time, you will receive recommendations from the secretariat regarding the necessary documents that need to be sent by mail to your email.

Most often, you will be required to:

• original certificate of complete secondary education
• filled out questionnaire
• contract with an educational institution
• photos
• copies of the passport

Planning studies

These steps need to be taken into account when planning your studies in Poland and preparing for your future life in this country. You should also be ready for potential challenges and unforeseen circumstances that may arise along the way.

Document preparation

While preparing the necessary documents for my studies, I encountered some unconventional ways to submit them. It turned out to be quite challenging, as I was in Georgia at the time of the application, and my diploma was left in Vitebsk. At first, I entrusted all the papers to a friend of mine who was also in Georgia.

After her return to Minsk, she sent me the documents via a courier service, and my sister from Vitebsk, adding the diploma to the package, forwarded everything to the "Medicus" medical center using EMS. This delivery option cost me42 Belarusian rublesthat approximately corresponds to14.5 euros.

Delivery issues

At this stage, there were some difficulties. Although I was promised by the post office that the delivery would be made within seven days, a week later the status of the package had not changed. Many acquaintances told me that under the current conditions, documents from Belarus to Poland can take two to three weeks. However, in my case, fortunately, everything was delivered in just two days.

The next day, I received the invitation and the contract. For the first time, I had to use a courier service.demis.byto obtain documents from the educational institution. I found out that the fastest delivery option will take eight days, and the cost will be around50 eurosOption withDHLI could provide faster delivery, but the price for their services would be twice the cost.demis.by.

Quality of services

In the end, I was satisfied with the courier service – my order was delivered by a very friendly courier right on time. It is important to note that one of the essential steps is...notarized translation of documentsIf you want to avoid wasting time, such a translation can be done directly at the educational institution while obtaining other documents.

I paid for this service.120 zlotysApproximately26 eurosHowever, if you have the opportunity, finding a translator on your own can be much more cost-effective, and you could save two to three times the amount. This solution is especially suitable for those who are already in Poland.

Obtaining a study invitation in Poland

Obtaining a study invitation from an educational institution in Poland is an important step for anyone looking to continue their education in this country. The entire process requires the preparation of several key documents. These include both original and copies of the agreement with the educational institution, as well as financial guarantees.

Necessary documents

Financial documents include:

• bank statements confirming the availability of funds in the account;
• rental agreement for housing
• receipt for the first month of rent;
• Certificate from the educational institution regarding the provision of a place in the dormitory.

It is also necessary to have two copies of the passport: the pages with personal information and registration, as well as copies of Schengen visas obtained in the last five years. Additionally, you need to fill out and sign the consent for the processing of personal data.

Consular fees

As for Belarusian citizens, the consular fee for applying for a national visa to Poland is zero. However, when applying for a tourist visa, a fee of 35 euros is required. For Russian citizens, the visa fee is 80 euros in both cases.

Financial guarantees

It is important to note the nuances regarding financial guarantees, especially concerning the required amount in the bank account. There is also the question of whether a lease agreement for a minimum of one year is necessary. In conditions where trips to Poland are becoming difficult, the option of remote housing rental may turn out to be unreliable. I started looking for information at visa centers in different cities and found that the required documents may vary depending on the region.

Regional features

For example, in Belarus, in cities like Grodno and Brest, they insist on having an annual rental agreement. In Brest, it was specified that there should be at least8412 zlotyswhat corresponds1830 euros (by calculation701 zlotymonthly). The Grodno Visa Center reports greater flexibility, allowing applicants to have only a certain amount in their account for submitting documents to the polytechnic school.200-300 euros.

Additional benefits

It is also worth noting that in Grodno and Lida, there are additional benefits for citizens who are applying for a service package that includes photography, copying, and filling out the visa application. Clients can submit documents without prior appointment – after payment, approximately.60 Belarusian rublesabout20 eurosYou can come and submit the documents at any time.

Loyalty conditions in other cities

In Minsk, Mogilev, and Gomel, the requirements are more lenient: it's enough to have a certain amount in your account to apply.300 eurosIf there is no rental agreement, additional funds can be deposited to maintain a minimum balance in the account.

Example of rental calculation

For example, if the plot about renting the cheapest room costs around600 zlotys (which is approximately equal to130 euros) per month, then you need to have more than7200 zlotysabout1570 euros).

The situation in Kaliningrad and Moscow

There are specific requirements for those submitting documents in Kaliningrad. A rental agreement is not mandatory there, but you must have a minimum balance in your account.2540 zlotys€552, which allows covering expenses for the first two months of living according to the calculation.1270 zlotysfor each month.

As for the situation in Moscow, it is fundamentally more complicated: some individuals are denied the opportunity to provide bank statements, while others face demands for large sums of money. Recently, there has been a significant increase in rejections when applying for visas to polytechnic schools in Moscow, which further complicates the process of obtaining the necessary documents.

Thus, the visa application process becomes extremely complicated and depends on many factors.

Preparation for applying for a student visa in Poland

If you are planning to apply for a student visa to Poland, especially in the context of studying at a police school, it is important to have the original invitation when visiting the visa center. For university students, it is allowed to present only a copy of this document. Personally, I also provided the contract with the educational institution, but they didn't even ask for it from me.

Difficulties with renting housing

When it came to finding accommodation, it became a real challenge for me. During the preparation stage, I contacted the visa center in Grodno, and I was immediately informed that having a rental agreement is mandatory. This news left me puzzled, as I couldn't visit Poland in advance to check out housing options. Clearly, taking on such commitments without the ability to see the place is risky.

Moreover, not all landlords are willing to rent out apartments without a prior meeting.

The idea of a fictitious rental agreement

While studying the rental market, I even considered ordering a fake rental agreement. In Warsaw, such offers sounded tempting and cost around 150 zlotys (€32). But in Bydgoszcz, I was offered a contract for 1,100 zlotys (€240), citing that this amount includes all taxes and fees. Considering that for that kind of money, you can rent a separate place for an entire month, I saw no sense in such investments.

Searching for accommodation through Couchsurfing

In the end, I was lucky to find support through the Couchsurfing service. I left a message saying that I was going to Bydgoszcz and would like to connect with locals. A young man named Piotr responded to my request and offered me a room for 770 zlotys (€167) a month, including all utilities.

I understood that I would not stay in this place for long: it was a six-room apartment with a small kitchen on the first floor, and it did not meet my needs. We agreed that I would rent it for a short time, and Pyotr provided me with an adapted contract that I could use at the visa center.

Moving to a new place

Now I am preparing to move to a new place: I plan to rent a room from the same landlord, but for 800 zlotys (€175) in a four-room apartment with a spacious kitchen and two bathrooms. This gives me a better chance of living more comfortably on the third floor. From my experience, living on the first floor with windows facing the street is not very convenient.

Creating a Telegram channel

After arriving in Poland, I decided to create a separate channel on Telegram where I will share my impressions of life and studying here.

Visa application process

As for obtaining the visa, I quickly gathered all the necessary documents and submitted them at the visa center in Mogilev. Although I had to make some changes to the application, overall the process went smoothly.

To avoid another trip from Vitebsk to Mogilev, I used a courier delivery service, which cost me 14 rubles (€4.8), plus 5 rubles (€1.7) for SMS notification.

Obtaining a ready visa

As a result of all this, I received my visa exactly ten days later, on Friday. The passport with the visa was delivered to me on Tuesday morning, after they called to confirm when I would be home to hand it over in person.

Crossing the border

The next step in my journey was crossing the land border between Belarus and Poland. This stage turned out to be quite challenging. If I had to travel by plane, for example, through Russia, no one would have any doubts about having all the necessary documents, such as an invitation or a contract with the educational institution.

Nevertheless, when crossing the border with Poland, the border guards insisted on the originals of the invitation and/or the contract with a certified translation into Russian. I decided it was better to be safe than sorry and prepared both documents with a notarized translation, which cost me...100 rublesor around35 eurosAs a result, it turned out that I only needed one of the documents mentioned.

The beginning of the adventure

My move started in8:00 PMOn Tuesday, I found myself at the bus station in Minsk, where the double-decker bus from Ecolines was completely full. The luggage didn't fit in the designated spaces, and as a result, the departure was delayed by half an hour. In the end, we left the station only at8:30 PM.

Border check

K1:30In the evening, we reached the Belarusian border. The document check took almost two hours, but my notarized translation of the documents was not subjected to inspection, and no additional questions arose. Unfortunately, four passengers, lacking the necessary grounds for departure, were forced to return their tickets and go back to Belarus.

Polish border

In3:30In the morning, we arrived at the Polish border. In a conversation with the bus drivers, I heard some concerning news - they mentioned that recently the Polish authorities have been working slowly, and the waiting time for checks can vary fromfrom two to six o'clockI was very worried because I was supposed to meet a friend at the bus station in Warsaw.5:30I already had a purchased train ticket to Bydgoszcz.8:15.

Fortunately, the Polish border guards were in a friendly mood, and we completed all the formalities in no time.two hoursThe cheerful border guard checked my visas and started a conversation about the upcoming trip to India. We had to take our things out of the bus for inspection, but in fact, only the luggage of three passengers was searched. So, in...5:30We were already free. However, two people were sent back to Belarus due to issues with their documents. After crossing the border, I found out that the time in Poland is one hour earlier, which gave me the chance to catch my train.

Meeting in Warsaw

When the clock struck.7:30According to local time, I found myself at the Warsaw Zachodnia bus station, where a friend was waiting for me. He took care of my breakfast, helped me connect to the local mobile operator Orange, and carried my bags to the platform. I was a bit disappointed with the state of the bus station, as it was filled with Russian motifs: conversations in Russian could be heard all around, and the vendors spoke to me in the same language. Moreover, the building itself looked somewhat neglected. However, it soon became clear that a new station was actively under construction nearby, and when planning trips, it is important to carefully check the schedule, as not all trains stop at this platform.

Arrival in Bydgoszcz

Ultimately, by noon I was already in Bydgoszcz. This marked the beginning of my new adventure in Poland, filled with exciting moments and unforgettable experiences.

Moving to Poland

Recently, I started a new chapter in my life by moving to Poland. Upon my arrival, the owner of the apartment greeted me and happily helped me with my luggage. Not only did he kindly carry my things, but he also generously shared useful information about local customs and showed me many interesting sights.

Fortunately, I managed to avoid quarantine, as newcomers arriving in the country before the start of classes are usually exempt from this requirement. However, due to a lack of students in my chosen groups, the start of classes has been postponed to the winter semester. The secretariat assured me that by that time, the number of people wanting to study would significantly increase.

Studying the Polish language

From the very first moments of my stay here, I realized that knowing Polish is a necessity, as English is not as widely spoken outside the capital. Moreover, there aren't many Russian speakers among the locals. At the moment, I am trying to combine my limited Polish skills with my more confident command of Belarusian, and fortunately, most locals understand what I mean.

Overall, the language doesn't seem overwhelmingly difficult, thanks to the similarities in vocabulary and grammar. However, there are certain nuances, especially at levels above A1.

Recommendations for future emigrants

Therefore, I strongly recommend everyone who is planning to move to immerse themselves in the language environment as soon as possible. If you stay surrounded by other expatriates all the time, you will significantly slow down your adaptation process. The sooner you start making an effort to speak Polish, the quicker you will get used to the new surroundings.

Moreover, the Polish are very welcoming to those who strive to communicate in their language.

• They are trying to understand your words.
• They are patiently waiting for you to articulate your thoughts.
• Some people use online translators for assistance.

Emotions from moving

I can't say that my mood about moving to Poland was one of wild excitement. Perhaps this is because, unlike my move to Georgia, this process was significantly more organized and well thought out. I had a general idea of what to expect and what surprises awaited me.

Now I realize that in Poland, the feeling of alienation or being in an unfamiliar country is absent — I don't feel like I've gone far from home. I feel comfortable and at peace here.

Housing conditions in Poland

When it comes to living space, Poland offers a wide selection of real estate to suit any taste and budget. For example:

• A house with an area of 300 square meters costs about €257,287.
• A land plot of 11,116 m² - €168,449
• A café or restaurant with an area of 120 m² — €549,967
• A villa with an area of 554 m² — approximately €1,900,000
• Land plots of up to 7,200 m² — starting from €23,379

For more detailed information on such properties, it is strongly recommended to consult professionals from agencies that offer qualified assistance and advice on real estate matters in Poland.

Introduction

So, summarizing my journey to moving to Poland, I realize that this decision was not spontaneous, but rather a well-reasoned choice. Georgia, while attractive for a short vacation, could not meet my needs for a long and fulfilling life. I was looking for a place where responsibility and the desire to grow are the norm, not the exception. Throughout this process, I encountered many difficulties and questions, but none of them could divert me from my intended path.

The Choice of Bydgoszcz

City selectionBydgoszczDespite its unremarkableness to most, it became a salvation for me. It attracted me with its accessibility and calm atmosphere, which created ideal conditions for studying and working. I explored many immigration options, and although some of them seemed more promising, I settled on a polytechnic school. This decision allowed me not only to continue my education but also to master the Polish language without significant pressure.

Obstacles and solutions

Despite all the obstacles, I felt that this step became an important milestone in my life. As I observe how the "Poland" Project unfolds before me, it becomes clear that change is not always easy, but it is necessary for personal growth. I was not just a spectator, but an active participant in my future, which gave me a sense of freedom and confidence.

Results and Future

In conclusion, I can say that the most important thing is the desire to change and improve one's life. Moving to another country is always a challenge, but it also opens up new horizons and opportunities. There are people around who are ready to help, and community support becomes a true source of inspiration. I believe that my journey in Poland is just beginning, and there is much excitement ahead. Inspired by new experiences and opportunities, I am ready for the discoveries and bold steps that await me in the future.
