Poland
Backpacking in Poland?

- Cities to spot: Kraków, Warsaw and Wrocław (Poland's gem).
- Animal spotting: bears, bisons (wisent), moose, lynx, foxes, wild cats, white-tailed eagles.
Studying in Poland?
- If your English is good enough, you can study at most universities and colleges in Poland.
- Studies: from economics and medicine to art and music.
- Characteristics: education is sometimes less organized compared to the Netherlands.
Internships in Poland?
- Internships: internships can be found mainly at the multinational companies operating in Poland.
- Characteristics: Polish companies without speaking Polish themselves can be too much of a challenge.
Working in Poland?
- Jobs: temporary work can mainly be found in the sectors: ict, help desks, agriculture and tour management.
- Characteristics: as a student from the Netherlands, you are allowed to work alongside your studies.
Doing voluntary work in Poland?
- Volunteer projects: particularly in the sectors of nature management and animal protection.

Working as a digital nomad in Poland?
- Favorite cities: Gdansk, ?Krakow, Warsaw.
- Characteristics: cool cities to spend your time and spend little.
Living in Poland?
- Language: learning Polish is not easy. The younger Poles already speak a reasonable amount of English. Among the older ones and outside the cities, you will have to make do with Polish or German.
- Characteristics: Prepare for a rather conservative culture in which Catholic values and norms play a role. In the cities where the expats are located and tourism plays a larger role, you will notice much less of this.

From language courses to gap year abroad, from work experience to volunteering abroad, from paid work to internship abroad, from mountaineering to diving and from backpacking to travel around the world
What social activities can you do abroad?
- Opportunities are found in the areas of helping, learning or studying. You can get involved to volunteer in a social project at a school in Africa, Asia or Latin America. You can get involved in nature, in a project with animals or cleaning the sea or beaches. Those who want to learn more can choose for example a language course in Latin America, Spain or South Africa.
What work related activities can you do abroad?
- If you want to gain work experience, and/or also earn money, go and work abroad. You can combine backpacking in Australia with temporary work. You can work on campsites in Europe or bush camps in Africa. You can pretty much go all over the world to work in the hospitality industry, hotels and hostels, in the healthcare sector or for example at a diving school.
What sports activities to do abroad?
- Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
- Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
