Life in Warsaw:

  • It is a vibrant cosmopolitan city. Bit noisy sometimes, but also with quiet park areas, charming Old Town and a lot of things to do

  • Cost of living: lower than in Western EU countries, but perhaps bit higher than you’d expect. Typical prices: monthly rent studio apartment (~2000-3000 PLN), monthly public transportation (~100 PLN), lunch at cafeteria (~25 PLN), full dinner at a restaurant (~40-60 PLN)

  • Language: English is more than sufficient to live and get by - though learning some Polish words can provide useful :)
