I actually am an American. We are missionaries and have been in Poland for 14+ years. We live on the outskirts of Warsaw and have started a a Baptist church in what is actually a suburb of Warsaw.
It has been interesting to see the change take place over the last 14 years. Even things like McDonalds. When I first visited in 1992 there was one in downtown, now there are probably more than thirty in Warsaw alone and many of the outlying areas.
I got the small Yanmar to do some work at the church property and around home. It is my hobby that gets me out of my office and the stress of that. I have worked as a heavy equipment operator and mechanic, which paid for school. My Dad is the farmer; he grows mostly hay both wet baling and dry for horses which he winter boards. he also has livestock.
But my main job now is pastoring those in our church, and teaching (mostly Old Testament courses in Bible Schools in Poland and Ukraine mostly. So my English is quite good, and my Polish is not bad, but Russian and Ukrainian are not so good.
I decided to do something special for my rollover to make it conform to the Standard. I hope to finish it tomorrow, maybe. I will post some pics of what I am doing anyway.
