Storks are quite ubiquitous in Poland, they are revered and loved in Poland – unlike the post Soviet area bureaucracy which still lingers around like a nasty smell.  Today I had to take another stab at it and try and file some papers, to get the papers I actually need.  To do this however, I needed to obtain more papers before my 12 page application was accepted to verify my Polish citizenship.  What should have been a simple “here you go” turned into a scavenger hunt that had me knock at 11  different doors in 3 different cities.   Is there no end to this – because I feel like this will be the end of me…
