In my article I present characteristics of emigration to Germany in the light of biographical and autobiographical migration stories collected after the year 2004. The analysis of biographical materials is preceded by the review of press materials (including letters from readers about migration experiences in Germany) and statistical data concerning main emigration directions from Poland and from Podlaskie voivodeship. The aim of this article is a presentation of a specific character of German direction of labor migration through individual experiences of particular migrants, men and women. The analysis of those cases shows that emigration to Germany, although close in a geographical sense, is not always close in the sociological, psychological and cultural sense, because it demands substantial adaptation to the German society and a change of the lifestyle. Therefore, emigration to Germany more frequently (in comparison to other migration directions) represents the innovative type (according to William Petersen's classification).

The article presents the results of survey researches on labor emigration after and before the accession of Poland to EU. The surveys were carried out in Bialystok among dif erent categories of respondents. The obtained results proved that migration is a selective process already at the stage of emigration - plans. Most often the choice of emigration - strategies was declared by young respondents (under 30) engaged in services or unemployed, more frequently males. The possibility of labor emigration was rarely considered by older persons, pensioners, teachers, clerks and executives. The survey of 2003 shows a high degree of support for labor emigration, even among respondents without personal migration plans. Therefore, the increase of the emigration flow after the accession could not be a surprise.
