G'day from Australia, Slovakia is my first destination when travel opens up again... Really looking forward to seeing your wonderful country and meeting great people... thanks for the informative post. All the best for 2022.
Thank you for your comment. We hope you are able to visit soon our beautiful Slovakia. If you have any additional questions about Slovakia, just let us know and we will be glad to help you. :)
Immigration police has improved by leaps and bounds for the past 10+ yrs that I live here in SK. I wouldn't be as harsh as your video on that part. Even BA office that used to be a nightmare, on my past 2 visits you either can come with a reservation or just wait and talk in English to the police officer at the front of the main door to help with process. My cultural shock in a good way was the low amount of crime there is and how safe you feel walking around. 2am back from old town and walking to your apt without being worried, is on the best things I love about SK.
Thank you very much for your comment. Actually we agree with you about Immigration police. It has improved a lot from those times where it was needed to camp outside in order to get an appointment. And regarding the low criminality, it is truly surprising how safe Slovakia is compared to other countries in the EU. Thank you for mentioning that positive culture shock.
True. When I was younger I used to go clubbing and once I got so drunk no taxi wanted to take me. Long story short I slept on a bench and when I woke up I still had my wallet, my phone and a free bonus... a pigeon shit on my jacket. Slovakia is not rich, it is not glamorous, it is not very cosmopolitan or "instagramable" but it is safe (ofc. use common sense.. do not walk alone in dark side-alleys or sleep drunk on a park bench).
Thank you very much for the support. We are very happy you have found our videos funny and entertaining. We will upload new more videos like this soon. :)
sometimes I think we could make spirits of any fruit, but many will be hard to find in shops and bars like drienkovica(cornelian cherries) or dulovica(quince) and waiting for moment we start make spirits from vegetables, they would have such nice names -uhorkovica(cucumber), brokolovica(brocolli), karfiolovica (cualiflower)...
That's absolutely true! :D Since people like to make their own palenka, it's possible to experience with all the possible fruits, then also trying to make dinavica, bananovica :D The possibilities are endless
only those that have good amount of sugar (that is what is actually needed to make alcohol). So sadly no cucumber, brocolli or cauliflower). But on the other hand yes for potatoes and for beets. and of course anything like wheat, ray or such.

I've heard the slovak coke (kolofa) and the national dish bryndzové halušky are things they expect foreigners to not like. Not sure what the kolofa tastes like, but I like tangy sheep milk cheese, I'd likely enjoy the cheesy dumplings. Also, very little seafood (but they always eat fish at Christmas), and I hope you like pork, cabbage, sour cream and potatoes b/c almost every dish has those things. Other things: this guy I play hockey with from Košice says even though it's only a country of 5 million, people from the east can barely understand the Slovak spoken in the west, and vice versa. Also, there's the easter tradition where the young men dress in traditional garb and chase the young women around with sticks and throw buckets of water on them, might be a bit concerning for women visiting that time of your when a bunch of guys start coming at them with sticks.
Thank you for your comment. Bryndza and Kofola have very specific taste which can be a little bit dificult to get used to. It is similar to the sour cabbage soup (Kapustnica).
I'm an American who learned Slovak living in eastern Slovakia. I don't have any problem understanding people in Bratislava, unless they talk too fast. Your hockey friend is joking with you.

We split in 1992, before that we were Czechoslovakia after ww1 since 1918 to be know as an official country until 1938 when Nazis basically offered us to be a single official country in short. Later on we joined again after ww2 and was like that as communistic satellite until 1992. But basically, Czechoslovakia are two countries, us Slovaks and Czechs, the language is very similar so we basically understand each other without much difficulty (might be because in Slovakia you watch most cartoons as kid from Czechia.)
@@linguarteOfficial It does. Most of these apply to all (at least North Slavic) people ─ beautiful women, weird (and, let's be honest, terrible) food, quiet and introverted people, cheap alcohol, etc. In fact, I'm from Russia, and you might as well have been describing my country lol (at least that's how it was before the war, I don't know and don't care what it's like there now).
@@maxkho00 hey! Our food is awesome. xD Tatarák is a delicious and trust me, nothing beats halušky or rezeň, kapor with potatoes or guláš! Tho... I would stay away from žinčica (the cheese drink lol) if you have bad stomach or are not used to it, it can be a bit traumatizing for the first time hahaha. Btw I love Russia, would love to try some food from there one day! :D Wish you guys the best of luck in this world.
Thank you for your comment! And yes, between 1-2% of the population here in Slovakia is Romani. As you mentioned, they lived mostly in the east of Slovakia.

@@SINC0MENTARI0S Not at all! If we compare England where I'm living now the prices are relatively similar to Slovakia just to consider that here the minimum monthly wage after tax is 1350£. On other hand in Slovakia is around 550€.
@@pavolkocis7456 thats actually not true, minimal wage here is for this year 750 € and before it was I think 700 €?? Anyways on most jobs you can easily get up to 1 000 € (regular jobs, most food delivery and stuff is not good but again those jobs sucks most of the time anyways). Also it highly depends where you go, in Bratislava (capital city) the cost of living and life is higher but the money you make as well, you will definetly move around 1500 to 2000 € in most jobs and for cities like Bystrica, Košice, Prešov, Trenčín etc. it's usually very good as well. Some cities like Nitra are a bit worse in job department but that's mostly since covid happened. Yeah.. that was hard time for Nitra.
@Lunima667 My original post was nearly 3 years ago, and I said after taxes. So even now 750€ now before taxes is what 580 to 600€? After over 20 years as a member of the EU, it's laughable. As for me, I'm glad I've emigrated the best decision in my life.

I appreciate your effort to popularize Slovak culture, but 'Beautiful women' didn't sit right with me on this list. They way you portrayed them made us seem like a tourist attraction, not people.
an example. the Slovaks lived next to the Hungarians for centuries and even now. (Because the territory of today's Slovakia was an integral part of the Kingdom of Hungary for 1000 years.) Slovak is a Slavic language. Hungarian is not Slavic. The Slovak language is based on the Hungarian language! Ice cream in Slovak: zmrzlina. I always laughed at this because it's hard to pronounce because of the many vowels. Then I found out that the Slovaks created it from the Hungarian word "zúzmara". (Zúzmara=Rime (English)
@@sanchesseli Do you think the Slavs could not have taken it from the ancient Hungarian word "zúzmara" (zmrzlina)? Hungarian is an ancient, NOT INDO-EUROPEAN language. He didn't have to adopt Slavic, Latin, Germanic words en masse. How did the ancient Hungarians name the noun "zúzmara" (zmrzlina) for thousands of years? Maybe the phenomenon didn't occur before, that's why it didn't even have a name in the Hungarian language??? Don't believe today's academics, but think logically. király-král (king), utca-ulica (street), kolbász-klobása (sausage) are not Slavic words, but proto-Hungarian!
@@sanchesseli Grover S. Krantz: Magyarság, the founding people of Europe's culture Grover S. Krantz (1931-2002), a world-renowned American anthropologist and professor at Washington State University, recognizes in his work "The Geographical Development of European Languages" that Hungarians, who have been treated as Europe's stepchildren until now, are the founders of Europe's culture. According to him, the u.n. "Indo-European languages" developed very late in Europe. That is why 30% of their vocabulary is not of "Indo-European" origin, and there are no "Indo-European" river names on the early maps of Europe. We are more interested in the following sentence: "...so the Greek language was formed in its current location in 6500 BC, and the Celtic language in Ireland in 3500 BC. The antiquity of the Hungarian language in the Carpathian Basin is similarly surprising; I find that its origins lead to the Mesolithic, preceding the Stone Age." Furthermore: "At least on one important point, the theory of people's migration is the opposite of the previous theorem. It is generally believed that the Hungarians of the Urals lived in the 9th century. century, they moved into the Carpathian basin from an eastern area.

30% of today's genetical make up of Hungarian populace is asiatic. The rest is Slavic,Romanian,German.@perseus274
Slovakia: unhealthy food, nice people, terrible drivers, corrupt and dumb politians (dumb Fico voters), beautiful nature (still if they not stopping chopping trees) , good beer, nice women😊😊, underpaid workers, too much smokers, very difficult language (even people themselves do not know how to write)
Thanks a lot Richard for your input! Definitely there are good and bad things about Slovakia.
@@linguarteOfficial perfect country does not exist, maybe country without humans 😊😊
Si zakomplexovaný Slovák? Tak miesto komplexov začni niečo užitočné robiť a prestaň paušálne hejtovať Slovákov. Chudák.
I dont care about all the other stuff, but dont hate on the food! That's the highest of all sins! :OO The food is amazing! :DD
