Today I attended my first expat event since becoming one. It's astonishing how many people from around the world live and work in Krakow - I met people from several different parts of Europe (a large number of French), India, Asia, and the US. No other Canadians though, although I know there are some out there since two work for me.
I am also amazed by the diversity of work in Krakow - I met people who work in fibre optics, IT, and someone who creates liquid nitrogen products that fuel space shuttles, (or something like that).
I had been a little hesitant about hanging out with the expat crowd before moving here (I thought I could more truly experience Poland by socializing with the Poles). However, the expat gang was extremely welcoming, and it's nice to be with people who are experiencing the same things as me (like struggling with the language!)
