    I am Welsh, married to a Slovak and live in Slovakia and we have a massive mint where I am from in Wales that makes a lot of the money around the world. Between that, the castles and the pride in the nature and mountains found in both countries and the way we are both overlooked in favour of our louder, more well-known neighbours I totally have found my spirit-home in my adopted nation. Now I just need to get fluent in Slovak (getting there) and learn Welsh (hmmmmmmm - a plan for my old age) and I'll be the perfect Welsh-Slovak!

So it was probably more like track first, field second, then they needed a place for tribune but the other side of the field goes downhill so screw it, let's build it at the other side of the track

    Peter Sagan deserved to be mentioned more. He is currently one of the best cyclists in the world, he's the best sprinter of all time at Tour de France and he's the only cyclist who became the World Champion three times.

      I'm guessing Barby will be mentioning cycling a lot more in the Slovenia episode, with Pogacar and Roglic being the two greatest riders in the world lately. But yes, Sagan was worth a mention.
