stiles: They say some guy cursed this house 20 years ago...

“Even in our darkest moments, there’s light where you least expect it.”

you can cross the border by foot,

you don't need an ID, insurance or covid certificate to come here,

our border guards claim it takes less than 2 minutes to let a refugee into Poland (giant lines on the way to crossing points are mostly caused by the large number of refugees and technical issues that Ukrainian border guards are facing),

please do not try to cross illegally - we really are letting everyone in, including pets,

from 26.02., Ukrainians are able to ride PKP Intercity trains for free (these are our long-distance trains travelling across the country) - other public transport organizers are being encouraged to join the initiative,

there are people on the border offering pick ups and free acommodations for refugees (online you can find lists of contacts to the Poles ready to accept Ukrainians into their homes or to help in any other way),

i've also seen that there are some translators on the border, also ready to help,

as for now, the most crowded crossing point is the one in Medyka,

even the cities far away from the Ukrainian border (like my hometown, Gdańsk, situated by the Baltic Sea) are preparing acommodations for refugees,

some firms are paying their Ukrainian employees in advance, others are offering shorter period of recruitment for refugees looking for jobs here.
