I think discrimination of Eastern European’s is more common is Germany, the UK and Nordics rather than Souther Europe. I am glad you were not discriminated!

Yeah, as an Italian, people tend to be neutral with Polish people, maybe because there aren't many. There has been definitely some discrimination against Albanians/Bulgarians/Romanians for the same exact reason as these posts say, lot of poor people looking for jobs in the previous decades and lot of criminal news stories related to them; but now the attention seem to have been turned to african asylum seekers.

I have no idea why in Italy we didn't get as many poles as Germany, the UK or the Netherlands.

On the other hand, old people still tend to think about poland as a country from the soviet block era and sometimes this also gets passed down to children. When I decided to move to Poland, my parents were super skeptical in the beginning, but then realize how Poland actually was once they came to visit me.
