Radio Poland’s Kamila Kudelska went to the Office for Foreigners to find out who is applying to stay legally in Poland and why.

“I am from Turkey. I am working here in Poland and that is the reason why I am here - because the life quality here is much better than we have in Turkey,” said a man in his thirties.

A young student said: “I am from Japan. I have a boyfriend. He is Polish and we live together. I study Polish.”
