My first week in the land of vodka and sausages!

I arrived in Poland last Sunday (6th of Feb) and since I arrived it's been non stop fun (and quite chilly!) I'm living in student accommodation called Olowek which is full to the brim of Erasmus and international students, so everyone one is up for a party...constantly! At the minute I can handle it because uni doesn't start for another week and a half, however our intensive Polish course starts at 9am everyday so learning the hardest Europen language is pretty tricky after a night on the Polish vodka! 

The University has a support group for the Erasmus students called 2Wroclaw.. let's just say they arrange parties... LOTS of parties! Although if you need anything other than a good night out they are more than happy to help with that, the support available for Erasmus students here really is brilliant!

The language barrier isn't really an issue, however the other international students who thought they could speak English now find themselves doubting their ability as they find it nearly impossible to understand my Scottish accent! A Slovakian girl commented that when I am talking it might as well be in Chinese... so i'll have to work on that!

Do Widzenia!!
