    What a stark contrast from SE Asia! Even though KL looks pretty well developed and also where you were in Singapore, the architecture in Europe definitely gives a different vibe. Having the opportunity to "live" in both worlds plus many more makes me wonder why anyone would ever want to remain in one location all their lives. You two make me laugh. It's entertaining to watch one of you, mainly Brian, say he did or saw something, then immediately hear Carrie tell us the truth of the matter. As far as I'm concerned, that bit of humor scattered in your videos really adds to the experience. Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to hearing about your next stop in your journey!

    • @BrianandCarrie

      That is so true - and one of the reasons we love changing it up and moving our travels to SE Asia.
      100% different style, culture, and food - keep the senses always guessing. I will say that when we head home and are there for 8 weeks, we find our minds getting so bored as we've returned to a life we can typically live with our eyes closed. and yes - Brian keeps the humor in the videos and brings it a bit down to reality 😂 gotta have some balance!

    You should try traditional Polish donuts(pączki). These are donuts stuffed with wild rose jam. Two pastries come from Krakow. Obwarzanek krakowski dates back to the 14th century. Here the dough is steamed first and then baked. Bagels also come from Krakow. Cracow Jews started to bake them in the 17th century. Bagels were a gift for women after a successful birth in its early days. Bagels came to the USA with emigrants at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The traditional Krakow street food is maczanka krakowska. It was already popular in the 18th century. It is pulled pork in a rich sauce, served with pickles in a bun. The pride of the region is also Krakowska sausage(kiełbasa krakowska). Dry Krakowska sausage is the best.

    In Samantha Brown’s Passport to Europe Prague edition, she went off the beaten path to a little shop that supposedly has the best apple strudel in Europe. I always swore, that if I ever went to Prague, I would have to find this place and try one!! A few months ago, I traveled to Prague and did exactly that !! It was the best Apple strudel that I’ve ever had period, not to mention it was about a foot long, huge and about 2 euros!!! The name of it is Žižkovská štrúdlárna!! You can take the tram most of the way, then it’s a walk through a residential area……Highly recommend! I think they are cash only. - Maria

    Another quality video as to be expected. Europe is really very special, and a happy place for me. You are venturing to an area that I have not been, but it makes me curious to experience it. Rick Steves would say that there is no bad weather, just bad clothing. You made the best of it by staying an extra day or two it would look like. This is peak summer season and early on in your video especially it seemed to be less crowded in the streets. I also am pleasantly surprised to see less grafiti on the walls, unlike some areas in Lisbon, Porto and Portugal when I was there in May. The food is always hearty fare, and the beer is full and robust. Having been to Prague back in 2018, I will be anxious to see your travels there. As always enjoy, keep sharing.

      We would say a mix of each. We like about 2 weeks of fast travel and then slow it down to a slower pace. The bus, train, Airbnb, Uber rides, and all that goes into fast travel can not only get exhausting but expensive as well. Our current fast travel is closer to 25 days. That may be a bit much for us. Great question, thank you! ❤

      Hi! We have always wanted to visit Poland and the Czech Republic (actually had a trip planned, but then the war started and we felt it best to stay out of the area as they had enough going on). We will be landing in Italy in two locations for 2 months and wanted to see more of this area than just picking one location.
      Sorry about the pricing - we do try to add the pricing, but moving quicker has to film sometimes many numerous videos in just a couple days and we can forget 😔. We will be doing a full cost breakdown for our 3 weeks of fast travel when we are done. Cheers 🍻

    Great that you have made it to Poland. Beautiful video images. It looks as if you had a great time even with the inclement weather. But, you are Washintonians and can handle it! Smiles.
    When I think of Poland, I always think of my (now late) friend from our university days here in L.A. He received a Fulbright scholarship to Poland in the 1970s. He loved it there and went back several times to visit friends whom he had made. He also received a Fulbright scholarship to China in the 1970s and stayed a year and also loved it there. We were together at university most of the 1970s.
    Poland was the first Eastern European country to join the Fulbright scholarship program in 1959. Senator J.William Fulbright of Arkansas developed the program as he believed that a program was needed to bridge cultures for a better understanding of each other since he felt that both nationalism and xenophobia were causes of WWII.
    In 1959, Franciszek Lyra received the first Fulbright scholarship from Poland to the U.S. and stayed in the U.S. for a year. Then, in 1961, a professor from Harvard, received the first Fulbright scholarship to Poland for a year.
    In 1946, Truman signed a bill and the Fulbright scholarship program was developed. The first countries in the program were China, The Phiilippines, Burma, and Greece and in 1948, eighty-three participants total from both the U.S. and from the first four participant countries were sent out on the Fulbright scholarship program for a cultural/educational year abroad.

    Hi Guys,
    Thanks for another great video! It's also evident to me and probably other viewers that you are happy to be back in Europe. While Southeast Asia is an excellent place to visit, it is hard to beat Europe for its history and culture. In Asia, you stand out as foreigners, whereas in Europe, you blend in. The Pierogi's looked good, but so you know, whenever you see cabbage on the menu description in Eastern Europe, it will most probably be sauerkraut. By now, you are probably in the Czech Republic enjoying some of the best beer in the world.
    I look forward to hearing which one you like the most. I have my favorite, but we are all different. Cheers!

    • @BrianandCarrie
