      VPN does not bring you security. VPN only changes your access point to the internet to make it look as if you were connected from somewhere else. In fact, VPN can be less secure, because all your personal data are re-routed through the servers of the VPN provider, who could potentially collect them without you even knowing. NordVPN's advertising is misleading to say the least. I do not know, how much they pay, but their product placement in so many UA-camr's videos has already become a running joke - something like Rogue: Shadow Legends.

    I cannot agree more about Valentine's Day. It's one of the most disgusting times of the year. The US has managed to turn an honest celebration of true feeling into a contest of commercials spending. I couldn't hate Valentine's Day celebrations in America more and I am holding back. I apologize for being so jaded about it. I haven't experienced the holiday in Czech Republic yet so my opinion is not the most informed but it sounds like a good day.

    Ahoj Jen, tvá interpretace Máchova Máje je legrační. Vyprávíš to trochu jako hollywoodský film. 😁 Ve skutečnosti je děj v díle jenom naznačen (Hynek s Jarmilou se například v básni ani jednou nepotkají). Upřímně řečeno, všichni jsme se o Máji učili ve škole, ale málokdo z nás ho skutečně četl. 😁 Mám moc ráda Tvá videa, přeju Ti krásné jarní dny. Pokud 1.5. nenajdeš rozkvetlou třešeň, funguje to i pod břízou. 🍀

    As a young man I used to consider the first of May a bit tacky and overplayed but nowdays I enjoy it as a cozy opportunity for some nice walk or maybe a delicious dessert with my wife.
    It doesn't need to be a huge celebration with some saccharin sweet gestures or enormous bouquets. But that's a very personal opinion. 🙂

    Your description is very nice. You already have a better understanding of Czech culture than many Czechs. I have learnt a new English word today: "maypole". I did not know, this has such a neat English translation.
    And you are completely right with the compulsory (pardon: "voluntary") Labor Day processions. Until today, the word "První máj" often appears in jokes and parodies.

    Na 1. Máji je něco krásného... prostě jen třešeň a 2 lidi...
    Nicméně láska by se měla dokazovat nejen o těchto svátcích, které jsou "pro ni určrné" - měla by se dokazovat stále.❤

    Here in South Bohemia we realy make the maypole and guard it through the night. And it is cut in celebration by the end of May. It is a kind of fight between vilages because people (usually young men) try to cut it and they can be realy inventive. For example years ago came a tactor with drey and passing by a maypole in one vilage suddenly young man hiden down in the drey stood up with chainsaw and cut it down. My teacher, who saw it in a 4 AM standing on her balcony shout to the vilage "They are cutting our maypole!" She said that before she went to the school there already had been a new maypole standing to not be ashamed. 😁
    My older sisters remember that there was a problem to go to parade (before revolution) one year because somebody cut the maypole here and took the block and put it just behind our door - they cut it to the blocks and gave those to people they were responsible to build the maypole - about ten different people (the maypole was build by a spa here and the people were top managers.
    Yes, the guarding usually makes some new pairs. But those customs change from place to place. I have collegue from north Moravia and she heard about burning the witches first here in South Bohemia. And guarding the maypole also. This custom - witches and first may as a love day is similar in Bavaria (Germany).

      btw it's weird that the girl from north moravia didn't heard about the witches. In Olomouc, haná etc.. there are a lot celebrations with burning a witch

Kytka se taky musí koupit, žádný utržený šeřík nebo ze zahrádky. Navíc jsou to už dva měsíce, co nás reklamy přesvědčili, že jediný způsob, jak ukázat, že někoho máme rádi, je zruinovat účet.

    I know the 'May pole' (Májka) tradition as that a man used to bring it in front of the house of the one he courted and if it didn't get stolen he could ask her out. But I don't know how it actually is. This is just the word of mouth in my region, as they say 😂 But yes, I definitely like 1st of May more than Valentines. Usually it is nice outside and people just enjoy their time together,it is amazing. ❤

    One of the nicest symbolic acts of love that I ever saw, was about 15 years ago, when I was 25... back then I worked as a caregiver (of a disabled man on a wheelchair with a memory problem).... he was 45 and had 2 adult siblings and both parents still living. He and his parents went to hawaii every February for a few weeks to be with his sister who lived there. I was able to go for a week and even take a person with me (I had no boyfriend at the time, so I took one of my parents).... On Valentine's day there was a dinner for all of us (there were at least 5-6 adults).... after dinner every single person got a token of appreciation from the hosting family..... To this day it was probably my favorite valentines day..... (it felt real and no one was left out, no one)..... people who care about each other together expressing the fact that they care and appreciate the other people.

    I hate Valentine’s Day and refuse to celebrate it. It should be about love, but it turned into a day about expensive gifts. I always cringe when I receive newsletters from companies, telling me I should get smartphone for my loved one… what is romantic about a phone? On the other hand “chraň tě ruka Páně” if I won’t get kissed under cherry blossom on may first. I love this tradition. It’s so romantic. It’s a moment between two people in love. And it fits with the whole theme of spring, when nature is waking up after winter and animals start to… make more animals 😁 even for our anniversary, we don’t give each other gifts, we just buy or do something we can both enjoy - for example go on a short vacation.

    There's one more thing about the maypole (at least it used to be in my village) - willing single girls would attach a headscarf (šátek) on the top of the maypole before it is erected and the single men would then climb it to claim the headscarf and the girl (but of course it could also be done by a couple to test the strength of the relationship).

    Hi Jen, the Old Quibbler at your service once again! Because Valentine's Day was once used as an excuse to end a relationship with me (I didn't even know there was such a holiday yet - what an amazing way to learn about it!) and I was quite upset because of at the time (lost 7 kg of weight in 3 days - highly recommended as diet!), I can responsibly say that I hate Valentine's Day from the bottom of my heart! It's not his fault (it is the lady's) and so I don't blame him - I just programmatically hate it and therefore don't celebrate it in any way. Which does not mean that I celebrate May 1 any more - for me, it really just means kissing the lady(s) (the ones that survived "the Witches") under a cherry blossom tree (so that they do not dry up within a year) and letting the rest go... ;) But nice video as alwyas anyway! Keep up the good work! ;)

    Sir_Mac here, as always!
    I have an interesting idea for you. In the village of Koloveč, there is a magic mill. It doesn't mill grain into flour, but it is designed to mill old or grumpy or ugly wives into their opposites. Old woman becomes young, ugly becomes beautiful, grumpy becomes happy, frigid becomes passionate, etc.
    I know, it is not fair, because the mill "transforms" only women, not men.
    And if you want watch an american movie with the same base idea, like about the mill, just swapping the mill for microprocessor implemented in a head, watch "Stepford Wives" (starring Nicole Kidman and Glenn Close).

    I don't even know about some of mentioned traditions. I only heard about maypole a few years ago for the first time. They have them in Slovakia, too, and I have seen it in Germany as well. Possibly more countries have such tradition. I heard that obviously, an erected long chunk of wood symbolised something else erected... and villages competing...

    I prefer our Love Day because it's not so commercial as St.Valentine' s Day. I don't like St.Valentine' s Day because I don't think love has to be bought. Love should be romantic, unconditional, happy... and not a commercial product from Walmart.

    Oh yes, mayday parades, the staple of my childhood🙃dancing or marching in an outfit (either of a "pioneer" or some sports or a folk group) usually not appropriate to the weather (it used to be quite cold or raining). We took part even the year of the Chernobyl disaster - no info, so we happily danced in the streets under the toxic clouds..It is also interesting how Mácha is a symbol of love, the poem Máj is quite dark, and his personal love life would not probably stand the test of the contemporary attitudes towards women😋
    But not to grumble - I love the time of the year, all the trees in bloom 🌸enjoy everyone the way you like.

      Exactly. The most romantic stories are not "sunny stories". Yes, they are about strong feelings, but they include fear and death also. Máj is in fact a romantic poem about feelings of a man, sentenced to a capital punishment...

      @@richardkaba5306 Myslím, že je úplně jedno, které svátky a tradice jsou západní nebo východní, jejich účel je (kromě kulturního rozměru), aby co nejvíc naplnily kasy obchodníkům! Proč by měli lidé platit jen předražené potraviny a běžné spotřební zboží, když je možné je přesvědčit, aby z důvodů svátků a tradic kupovali a platili i předražené tématické zboží?! A čím víc svátků a tradic (i těch importovaných), tím lépe - proč např. na Dušičky prodávat jen hřbitovní věnce a svíčky k uctění zesnulých, když je tu i západní Halloween a je možno vydělávat i prodejem kostýmů strašidel pro dětičky. A tak je to se vším. Účel je jen jediný - peníze nesmrdí a jsou přece až na 1. místě!🤨

      jestli se nepletu tak názvy českých měsíců vznikly za národního obrození a trvalo než se rozšířily. a jelikož 1. máj byl spojen s tradicemi jako májka a myslím že i mácha na tom bude mít podíl tak se název zachoval. Je to podobné jako aprílové žerty a aprílové počasí místo dubnového.
      edit: tak jsem se napůl sekl. názvy českých měsíců jsou staršího data ale květen je obrozenecký
