Arriving in a new city can be quite intimidating especially if you're stepping foot on foreign soil. In this episode, I'll touch upon the few, but quite important tips for your first 24 hours in the country's capital: Warsaw.
SIM Cards
You can get your Polish SIM card for as low as 5 PLN (1.25 USD) all the way up to 50 PLN (12.00 USD). SIM cards are available at Orange, Play, Plus & T-Mobile stores, or other places, like kiosks/newsstands or Warsaw Chopin Airport and local grocery and convenience stores/
Bus/Tram/Metro Tickets
Prices start at 3.40 PLN (1.00 USD) all the way up to 58 PLN (14.00 USD) depending on which ticket you decide to go with.
You can buy your public transport tickets at newsstands, Passenger Service Centres and ticket machines, which you will find on most buses, in the new trams, at underground stations and near stops. In the ticket machines, which support many languages (English being one of them) you can pay for your ticket with coins or a card. You can purchase them on your phone as well.
