    It's was so lovely seeing how you made all the stuff for me and I laughed so much about the hussar 😂😂 he sadly didn't make it, the journey was too much for him.
    I'm so happy that you drew me, then gifts were wonderful and it reminded me so much of the gift boxes I used to get from my grandma (which is only a compliment in the costume world)
    And I'm also so happy that it was all self-made or vintage.
    All in all... thank you so very much Anna ❤️

    The Christkind delivering presents is a thing here in Germany as well (Protestantism meant that St Nicolas was out!), and over the years he's transformed so that now the Christkind is a girl with blonde hair, a white dress and wings so that's probably where the confusion comes from!
    You got so lucky with your gift! Juul did such a did job, and so did you! I'm glad that Marlene got such a good secret angel!

    • @PrettyShepherd
      @PrettyShepherd  5 років тому +13

      Gilbert Dolthalion probabaly so! German culture did have a strong effect on Hungary (because of the Austro-Hungarian empire too). The “religious” way I see it, for now, is that we celebrate the birth of the Christ Child, but the Angel brings the gifts :)

      @@PrettyShepherd Almost all your customs are the same in Slovakia, including St. Nicolas (Mikuláš) delivering treats to childrens boots (which is not a custom in Czech republic so my boyfriend was puzzled why I gave him his St. Nicolas treats next to his shoes :-)). And baby Jesus also brings gifts. And we also hang "salónky" on the christmas tree. It is so nice to see that we have still so much in common

    • @maggiekedves
      @maggiekedves 5 років тому +5

      I was just going to make a comment about Baby Jesus... I believe that is the result of the Protestant faith... Martin Luther really wanted the saints out of the picture. It is also interesting to note the differences when the presents arrive... Baby Jesus brings presents on Christmas Eve and the gifts are readily opened then while other cultures unbox on the 25th. I miss having 3 days Christmas as well... Merry Christmas! Boldog karácsonyt!

    • @kleinerroterpunkt7808
      @kleinerroterpunkt7808 5 років тому +6

      That is not exactly right. In Germany there is the tradition of Sankt Nikolaus bringing little gifts like sweets and fruits and leaving them in the polished shoes of the kids. The region where I live in germany ist predominantly Protestant, catholics are rare. And in all the families I know the Weihnachtsman ( father christmas) bring's the presents, maybe that is because of the former GDR and socialism. I think the Christkindl thing is more of a tradition in Bavaria (the protestant part franconia) near nuremburgh. There is the Christkindlesmarkt a christmasmarket. I dont think that the opening presents thing on Christmas Eve has something to do with protestantism, it is just a german tradition. If you know better please let me know

    I am not certain if someone else has commented on this, but.. I would loooove to learn more about your new farm!
    I came here through the Secret Santa Thing (starting from Bernadette as so many others I believe), and then devoured a few of your videos before seeing your instagram. You lady, as well as the farm-work you both do, is so utterly interesting! It was pleasant to discover so many more pleasant things after seeing this surely pleasant video! Extreme use of 'pleasant' but this is fascinating to me, and it all makes my heart jump with excitement.
    And!! The honey-cookies (was this the word?) you mentioned... In Greece our special 'cookie' for Christmas is also a honey one. Well, in Greek it is called melomakarono which would literally translate to honey-pasta (as in spaghetti), which most likely sounds weird. Have the most beautiful Christmastime and even lovelier 2020!

    • @PrettyShepherd
      @PrettyShepherd  5 років тому +14

    Hungarian christmas traditions are very similar to the german ones 😊 or at least bavarian tradition, that‘s the part of Germany I live in 😊 we also have an angel bringing the presents and St. Nicholaus is also putting the presents in the shoes 😊

    Never seen cookies with mirrors before, will have to make some. The buttons with ribbons, OMG! Loved your reactions to your gifts, but the mud on the box? How?

    • @PrettyShepherd
      @PrettyShepherd  5 років тому +2

      Sharon Fernandez you can see more types if you search for “tükrös mézeskalács” 😊
      As for the mud... well, the delivery man was neither the most patient, nor the brightest 😅 but, all is well, when all ends well.

    Growing up in north-west Transylvania I found many of my childhood traditions in your video and it sent me on a nostalgic trip. Your present was really well thought and the one you received was also so nice!
    Plăcută surpriză să aud colindele copilăriei pe fundal!
    Boldog karácsonyt! (one of the few things I know in Hungarian)

    Best part of this secret Santa exchange is finding new wonderful youtubers! Your video is entertaining and your voice soothing to listen to. Can’t wait to binge watch the rest of your videos. 😊
    Also growing up in Transilvania I love listening to the carols. Makes me miss home. Happy holidays!!

    it's late but a suggestion, to add captions to it for juul's sake as well as anyone else hearing impaired.
    Also your selection of gifts was great! (I'm sure the section with the decapitated horseman will make it up for then cracking for your giftee)

    • @PrettyShepherd
      @PrettyShepherd  4 роки тому +2

      bisma you’re totally right! My videos so far never got quite popular enough, for this to be a real issue, but now I see how it might affect more people than I’d have guessed. I will definitely add captions to this. Thanks for the reminder/feedback :)
