So things are coming to a head fairly rapidly now.
My last day at work is on Saturday and I am vibrating with both fear and anticipation. My eight year tenure at Superstore is done and over in 13.5 working hours and I stand in awe of the growth that occurred within those walls.
Today I also learned the address where I will be staying while I work:
UL.NIEDZIALKOWSKIEGO 8/10 M35; 26-600 RADOM
It's on the corner of that name up above and a street named after Marie Curie. My inner nerd is immensely pleased at this. It's only half a kilometer away from the main school and it looks like there are plenty of shops within easy walking distance. The fact that everything is so flat will definitely take this mountain-and-valley girl some getting used to. I remember how disorienting the gently rolling hills surrounding Camrose, AB were, and that wasn't even as flat as this.
At least the mountains won't be far away.
On the slow-moving aspect, however:
Work permits were sent out last week, but have not yet arrived in Kamloops. This is something of a nuisance, since those are greatly needed to get work visas.
There are a myriad of other questions that we need answered regarding the visa application progress, but our efforts to contact the Polish consulate have not been very successful, and I have a feeling we may need someone to help us walk through the process...international travel certainly seems like a big headache so far.
Surely the experiences that ensue will be worth the nightmare bureaucracy.
