Brit in Poland
People & community

Poland, in other people’s words.

Brit in Poland usually tells the story from my point of view. These conversations hand the microphone over — to family seeing the country with fresh eyes, people whose own lives cross Poland in different ways, and professionals building something here.

The collection so far

A country looks different depending on who is talking.

Some of these conversations are deeply personal. Some are first impressions from people visiting Poland for the first time. Others dig into work, immigration, business or what it means to build a life here. Together they add something I cannot provide on my own: other points of view.

This page is deliberately unfinished. As Brit in Poland grows, so should the range of people and experiences represented here.

01 · Family

The people who knew me before Poland did.

My parents and brother experiencing the country from the outside — sometimes reacting to Poland itself, sometimes to the slightly unexpected fact that I built a life here.

02 · Personal

Different lives. Different connections to Poland.

These conversations widen the lens beyond my own experience: people with different nationalities, backgrounds, heritage and reasons for being connected to Poland and the region around it.

03 · Professional

People building, teaching and helping in Poland.

Conversations with people whose work gives them a practical view of life here — from language learning and entrepreneurship to immigration and the realities behind moving to Poland.

The next conversation

Know someone whose story belongs here?

I want this collection to keep expanding — more backgrounds, more professions, more experiences and more ways of seeing Poland. If you have a story, project or perspective that genuinely fits Brit in Poland, I’d be interested to hear it.
