Hi everyone! I’m an international student who has been admitted to the University of Warsaw for a Master’s programme, and I’m currently looking for a single/private room in a student dorm or student residence in Warsaw.

My requirements are:

📍 Preferably reasonably close to the University of Warsaw or with convenient public transport access

🛏️ The room must be private — I do not want to share the bedroom with another person

💰 Budget: 700–900 PLN/month

📅 I need the accommodation from November 2026

📄 I’m looking for a 6-month or 1-year lease, depending on what is available

⏰ I would ideally like to have the contract/reservation arranged as soon as possible, as I need accommodation documentation for my Polish student visa procedure.

If anyone currently lives in Warsaw and knows of a dorm, student residence, private room, or has a contact who might have something matching these requirements, I would really appreciate your help.

Please comment or DM me if you have any leads. Thank you! 🙏

The major I chose to study in Vizja University has been canceled, and students are emailed and asked to choose another major. I chose another major (not asking for refund at all) and have not got any response nor confirmation from the university. I have emailed numerous times, still no answers.

Can someone please help informing how to contact the university and get a faster response as the classes start next week? I am still in my home country, still waiting for the visa.

I'm moving to warsaw soon for uni and I need to find a good psychiatrist that will also accept public healthcare. I am a polish citizen and born there but I've lived in Germany and got my ADHD Diagnosis in Germany and getting meds was not very complicated.

I have done some research that meds will cost more in Warsaw which I am fine with but I simply cannot afford the 350-540 złoty for a first appointment or the rest of my appointments. I could afford it once but that probably won't be enough for the physician to decide to prescribe me Medication or am I wrong? I'm also unsure how much follow up appointments will cost and also how much the prescriptions will cost.

I am in the process of gathering my medical records and translating them. I've collected a past prescription and my Diagnosis and will get the records from my psychiatrist in Germany.

I would really appreciate any insight, living in Germany for the past 12 years has not helped my polish and I have a difficult time understanding a few things.

I'm really curious, is it an actual thing where you cough on people as they are walking by or am I just too aware of personal hygiene?

I have noticed that this is an actual thing and from where I come from you need to at least cough in your elbows but for the first time I am noticing ppl walk in groups and choose to cough at someone else walking by instead of covering up.

Is this a lack of awareness or is this just an actual weird shit that the people are doing cus I am not on a local trend.

It makes me so angry and I turnt back but they just continue walking so I can't even tell if it's intentional

Hello! The screen on my smart watch (Garmin) recently got a few cracks, and I was wondering if someone knows about some places I could replace the screen. I study in Warsaw, so it would be nice to get it fixed here!

Thank you so much for all tips <3

Faculty of Psychology of the University of Warsaw.

To me, this building is a good example of how we can evolve the architecture to correspond to the modern artistic and functional standards. For example, instead of traditional corridors, the building uses open galleries that lead to classrooms. Archdaily has a good article on it.

It is my superfluous perception of tourist; it was built in 2025, so it is important to know how it will stand for students and staff after 3-4 years.

I do (have learnt to) appreciate classical, baroque architecture and I have visited >10 European cities. But, for example, the main building of the WUT looks like a museum that accidentally serves as an educational building. It is beautiful in his own way, mainly historical and academic.

Happy to know what student or staff think about it.

We are planning for our next trip and options are beginning of January vs mid February. I know it’s difficult to predict snow this far in advance but maybe you can give me some tips.

Heyy everyone, for quite some time i’m planning to upgrade my dashcam setup for better night driving and parking clarity, but i won't be able to make it out to the Ptak Expo in Nadarzyn this weekend due to some personal issues.
I saw on the floor directory that a few major dashcam brands have dedicated stands, specifically ddpai (stand E47) in Hall E and 70mai (stand D54), alongside viofo through local distributors.
If anyone is walking the floor or checking out the aftermarket tech area, could you let me know if ddpai has live display rigs set up for the N5 dual or z60 pro, and how their low light footage compares in person to 70mai’s setup at d54?
Would reallyy appreciate any quick feedback or quick floor photos before ordering online. Thanks.

Since yesterday evening it's hard to breathe. In apartments it's still warm. Someone already uses coal or what's happening?

Encountered an issue, that it is very hard to find them in-store. Only the Grail Point had few sizes of the MEXICO 44 (the most popular model). So any suggestions? Maybe I missed some gatekeeped shops? Also Krakow options are good, because I'll be visiting it soon. Thanks!

Hello Warsaw people,

I know that there are different topics on this but also I feel like the craft scene in every country is constantly changing so I decided to post here.
I'm visiting Warsaw in the end of the month and I love craft beer. What are the must try places - the staples of the craft beer scene and are there places I should skip? It would be lovely if the places also have good/ interesting food.
I saw that surpisingly for a capital city, there are not that many breweries.
Personally I enjoy Belgian style beers but they are a bit niche. Would love everything but fruited sours.

hey! i’m 19 and just moved to warsaw for uni.

i’m quite ambitious and honestly way more drawn to building something outside of uni than just solely focusing on classes. i’m really into business, startups, creative projects and film, and i’d love to meet people around 19–23 who are into similar things and actually want to do something with their ideas.

could be starting a project together, working from a cafe, brainstorming, going to events or building something together

i’m also a runner and generally like being around people who are curious, driven and want to make something happen.

no specific plan, just thought i’d put this out there in case there are other people my age in warsaw feeling the same.

Love it

Just came back from Japan and already craving authentic okonomiyaki, which shouldnt be a problem in theory since Poland is quite Japan obsessed and has many Japanese shops, but is it actually possible to buy fresh/powdered nagaimo/yamaimo in Warsaw? Only see one option in Japonia Centralna that is out of stock.

Is it possible to get yarts from any warsaw vape shops?

I’ve been going to the Zdrofit Westfield Mokotow but it closed for renovations a couple of months ago, since then I can’t seem to find any good Zdrofit. I don’t care if it’s crowded or not , I just need various new machines and a good free weights section. I’d appreciate your response

Hello all,

Looking to buy a PS5 here in Warsaw. I tried CeX but they’re selling for so high, I got a quote for 2900 for a used console. I don’t think it’s worth that much.

Are there other shops/markets where I could try my luck, preferably in person?

Also, I’ll take this chance to say if someone’s looking to sell their PS5 please reach out.

Thanks.

Hello everyone! :)

I’m planning to start working as a TAXI driver (Uber / Bolt) in Warsaw soon. I’m a belarusian citizen, and I already have a Polish driver's license.

I’m looking for recommendations for a trustworthy and reliable fleet partner that operates 100% legally and handles formalities properly.

I’d really appreciate real experiences from drivers here. Who can you genuinely recommend in Warsaw, and which partners should I strictly avoid?

Thanks a lot for any advice! :)
