Thank you so much for inviting me! I don't even know how to respond to your intro, just 💖💖💗💞🥰🥰!!! Funny story about the guy depicted next to the then-mayor of Vienna and on the next page at 24:02 - that's HC Strache, former leader of the far-right party. He became vice-chancellor shortly afterwards in a conservative-led coalition from 2017-2019. In spring 2019, a video from before the election came out that showed him in a finca in Ibiza promising to sell basically half the country to a pretend Russian oligarch's niece (she was a Latvian actress I think?) and remodelling the media landscape after the Hungarian model, should he be elected. Ibiza-gate brought down the entire government (via a vote of no conficence in parliament which is a first), triggered new elections where the far-right lost substantially, brought the Green party back into the parliament and straight into a government-coalition (also a first), and prompted parliament to set up an inquiry looking into this potential corruption case. It's ongoing and the repercussions - mainly wrt to the conversative party - are beyond what fits into a youtube comment. One of my favourite parts, though, is that "We're going to Ibiza" by the Vengaboys became the summer hit of 2019 and the Vengaboys even played an impromptu concert in front of the Hofburg where the chancellor has his offices 😂😂

I left Ibiza-gate out of my notes because I figured it would be too complicated to get into, but this was a perfect summation!

@@ASMRGeographica Yeah honestly there is no way to keep up with it, but it's perfect for a little bit of Schadenfreude haha

Omg. Omg. Omg. Like this is literally the perfect combo. When you passed the ball to Melange I kinda screamed of joy. You guys are my life savers. Can't even count the times I was having hard time and you fixed my mood right away. Ladies, thank you for your AMAZING work. Still screaming btw 😂😂

Going to Austria in August Prague and Munich as well :-) oh by the way I absolutely love you. Perfect timber, phrasing material just perfect thank you for this

Gmund isnt so big city but known for split on Czech and Austrian parts in 1918. There were also troleybusses. The Austrian part Gmund is moře bigger than Czech part (České Velenice), but in Czech part is Railway station where ends regional lines from Vienna and České Budějovice (Budveis) In Gmund also lives my friend.

Love the collab by the way!! Geo-ASMRtists unite 🌍

If any far right anti immigration people are watching this video you do gotta wonder why they are choosing to watch a channel dedicated to exploring other cultures 🤔😜
