The guide was a woman who spoke seven languages (Russian, Spanish, Polish, French, Italian, German, English) and she is learning Portuguese.
She knows Krakow very well. All the churches and the synagogue, the castle of Wawel, the middle of the town, the university, ... I think that you have to like your city to be a good guide. A person about whom the Poles are very proud is the pope Jean-Paul II. I'll never forget the Friday (after five days that the guide spoke us about the pope every day) when Catherine Petit asked if Jean-Paul II was Polish and neither the Saturday when the guide spoke us one more time about the pope we laughed very much.
The people in Poland isn't unpleasant. The Poles who work with tourists are a bit colder. I suppose it's because some tourists are very unpleasant, but if you ask something in English in the street they answer you with a big smile.

Do you think a lot ofPolish speak English or do you think they speak Russian or French ?
I think that the people speak better Russian but the most of the young people speak better English than French. We have spoken five times or more in English with Polish and only one time in French with a bookseller.
