We travelled through Slovenia this summer for 2 weeks, one of my friends is vegetarian, and there was plenty of vegetarian food available. Slovenians value their home grown vegetables and eat plenty of it.

Yep, same goes for Hungary

cool. thanks for the heads up.

I live in Poland and I can not agree on weather- we have one of the best weathers in Europe- usually very hot in summer up to 40C in summer, and cold winters with minus 20 30 some winters with snow . good for skiing. Compering to UK, Netherlands, Dannmark with constant clouds and rain and etc. Germany, Poland, Czech Rep. Slovakia, Hungary, Switzerland have proper 4 seasons weather. I'm vegeterian and you always can buy cheap fresh veg and fruits on farmers markets- and they are farmers markets even in small towns

thanks for the great comment and helpful tip. all the best! I am back to Austria next summer (I really love Austria even if I am not a big fan of the service ;) looking forward to it!

Nice and helpful videos. Thanks a lot

Thanks! I will do my best to keep making them! Thanks for watching and commenting! Hope you will like the video to help it get seen more! All the best! Mark

Thanks. I am glad I can help. I am not a big sun seeker either. My pasty white skin turns nice and golden red :) Glad the videos help a bit! Mark

Thanks! I appreciate it! Thanks for watching and commenting!

There are exceptions to the rule :) I lived in berlin for 3 years and one fall and winter it rained everyday... so needless to say i am jealous :) have a great time in frankfurt and if you could not tell finding enough hates was tough for central europe, we love it there! thanks for watching and commenting!

Great video but you definetely didn't get it right on weather, especially in Austria, Hungary, Slovenia or Slovakia. These places are not in the Mediterranean but near enough to have sunny summers, little rain, relatively mild winters but not too mild to get some snow on Christmas (sometimes). Great places for wine. And Slovenia actually is in the Mediterranean and you have some Mediterranean vegetation there. So definitely WRONG on weather for the southern part of "Central Europe"

true compared to farther north yes it is less expensive.

I love your videos and being austrian, I agree with everything you said in this one ^^

It is on our Top 10 Central Europe video (it will be up in a month or so, it is about 10 videos down our track right now). But yeah soooooo worth going to even if it is a bit of a pain in the but to get to :) Thanks for commenting and watching (again) :) oh and have you heard me speak dutch yet? i have one video on that... it is baaaaaaaaad. but i think you would get a laugh out of it.

About temperature: don't let the average temperatures imply you how hot/cold it might be or what to wear! The amplitudes are very high (different weather fronts fight with each other above the Central Europe all the time) and you will never know if July would be tropical (85-93 F is a normal thing in the summer, although three digits are very rare experienced), or all about windbreakers. Heck, it can be Wednesday this, Friday that.

I live in Berlin and cannot really agree on the wheather thing. In the summer, we do have bikini temperatures, at least sometimes. For example, we now have about 32°C (90°F), forecast predicts 38°C (100°F) for the weekend. Hooray for global warming! Also: I would not call Freiburg a "little village". It has about 220,000 inhabitants,

I started making my Mexico videos :) filmed two on all inclusives, 1 on cancun, 1 on mexico, and a few others. So they will be coming out over the next few weeks

Hi,love your vids :) they help me plan my hols,I'm not a sun seeker so your insight to places helps me a lot,keep up the good work xoxo JanUK

Love Central Europe, the last 100 years has been rough (understatement of the century) for everyone living there, except Switzerland, the neutral mountain Germans. Nice to see the area finally getting back together, deserves it. :) Also the food, I swear that every country in Central Europe eats and drinks the same stuff, they just call it different things. :P

Almost, we are very similiar but not true, for example our xzech goulash, you dont add fresh paprika to the base and at the end you add marjoram, in comparement to the hungarian

I actually booked tickets to mexico yesterday :) heading down mexico way in october so love/hate will be out in november. I appreciate the kind words. It means a lot. I hope you will like the mexico love and hates. My dad worked in mexico for about 10 years so lots of great stories

yeah, there really aren't any "hates" I have for central Europe, they are more like mild annoyances :) central Europe is fun and good to see, Budapest is not that bad, you just need to watch out at night and even then it is just paying attention to your surroundings. So do not get too worried. have a great trip!

Hi Wolters, there is kind of veggie 'Mc Donalds' in Poland cold 'Green Way' is in every city in Poland and there you can have good quality vegetarian meals, not for every day because they have like 5 or 6 different meals only but still something to lay on when you are vegetarian...

I enjoyed the great video, totally spot on as always! just wanted to add a quick tip concerning the service: if you have the feeling you've been waiting too long to be served, just try calling the waiter over; normally the staff is used to leaving you alone until you make yourself get noticed, because they don't want to seem pushy. but in general, as an austrian, I'd say I have to agree, service can be really crappy, especially by american standards - love youre service culture. :)

7:45 lol your vids are great ;)

The continental climate can be really sunny and hot as late as in early autumn, in late september. But now it's raining, most south central europe is flooding...and I'm planning to go there, it will be an exciting journey.

@wait4meto thanks!

thanks :) nicest comment I have received on here in quite some time :) all the best to you! we are in china now making all kinds of new videos so stay tuned :) all the best to you.

41 Celsius (105 Farenheit) in Prague today.

The Czech Republic can be cheap though! I was in a restaurant one year ago (away from the tourist areas) with a beautiful view over the hills. We were having dinner there with 6 adults and 2 kids. We had everything including a starter, main course, drinks and a dessert, all of great quality. I was suprised that it only cost us 100 Euros! Nice video as always Mark! :)

I just LOVE Liam in 5:02 It´s amazing how at home he seems to feel..... Look at his sleeping position, SOOOO CUTEEE...... :-)

@nurywais Thank you. He is adorable and loves to flirt with the grandmas all over Europe :)

At first when you were naming all the countries with good beer and didnt say Poland i got mad at you, but then you mentioned it so I like the video :)

Before watching video: I bet beer is mentioned on this list. 4:01 You didn't dissapoint :) Trains are almost always late in SLovakia and Czech republic.

That is the key, get away from the tourist area, I always recommend that as a way to save some money, but I dont want to send a group of 80 year old Americans off to the outskirts of the city without them knowing how to get back :) but yes you are right, go to the non-tourist areas and central europe is great and affordable. this is very true.

I agree 100% about Slovenia :)

Hy, First of all I really like your videos I think you do a great job. :) But the part with the weather is just not true for Austria! We had 40 C this summer! It gets really really hot especially in Vienna. Maybe in Germany it’s different but in Austria you can definitely go swimming in summer. :) Keep on doing what you do!! I love it!!! :) All the best from Austria!

woltersworld Yeah and the Austrian women wear beards and have penises , not kidding it is the new hit in Austria.

Wolter knows what he is talking about. The service comments are so true but if you take it with a proper attitude you will adapt easier. I do not consider the level of service as subpar, just different that's all. I was stationed in Germany when it was still West Germany so going back to Europe was much better the second time around because I knew what to expect. One of my fondest memories was this small cafe' inside the Frankfurt train station. It was hard to believe it was so slow as the station itself is quite busy. The owner came out and starting conversing with us like we were old friends. The wife was a little surprised (being an uninitiated traveler) as this behavior is not too common in the states. None the less she enjoyed the company. Everyone has advice about traveling Europe and there is an abundance of information available but there seems to be one universal truth. If you keep the "When in Rome do as the Romans" mentality you will enjoy it far better. Stay relaxed, stay safe and always well traveled.

Cesky Krumlov (Yes I know I am probably raping the spelling, sorry for that) in Czech Republic. One of the most beautifull towns I have ever been to. Me and a friend were on vacation in Prague and this guy who's from Prague that we were staying at told us to go there. We first went to go for one day. Ended up staying there for 2 nights. Truly amazingly beautiful.

Hey man all of your videos are very helpful... I'm backpacking Europe in June and I'm going to be there for 6 weeks I'll be going all over western Europe and some of eastern Europe. And I was wondering if $5000 so about €3800, do you think that'll be enough? Also I'll be staying at youth hostels and if there's any tips you can give me on how to save money that'd be great to... Thanks!

Check Out My Video on 10 Ways to Save Money While Traveling. That will give you some ideas how to save. 5000 should be fine, i would need to know more, like does that include transport costs etc. But I think it will be fine,

sir i must ask, how do you do all this traveling? it is my dream

@fiveyearsbefore University Professor

this was cool cos all the thing you said as negative didnt make me not wanna go there. but just watched the one about budapest, and i already regret that we bought tickets... we ll be staying there only a few hours but all the negatives were related to them and positives werent so relevant to us

Trains on time in Central Europe... :D :D :D :D :D

The weather in Greece is very hot,43 degrees Celsius...

Hi :) I love your videos. Its great how foreigners see my country. Im german. One word to the service. Its right, it seems not friendly, but the reason is found in the nature of us germans. We germans are direct. We say what we think. So, the sellers in shops expect that from you. Thats not bad meant. Oh and one thing at last, please, do never compare the mastery of beer making in germany with any other country. Its not fair, they always lose. We are the Michael Phelps or Usain Bolt of beer ;)

@FluentCzech Yes there are hot ones for sure and I'm guessing it is pretty miserable at 41;)

Do you recommend living in a cheap hotel and renting a car ?

Last summer it was 40°C in Germany...

5 + & - about the Czech republic (my version) = + pretty nature, monuments and many relax places- bad comunications ( somewhere) + really damn good beer - you can't use euros + really tasty food - unhealty traditional food + low prices (food and dinks, services..) - changing weather = you can get ill + helpful people - not every czech speaks english. I am very sorry for my english

Just saw and I indeed snickered a little. But it wasen't as bad as one would sometimes expect from foreigners :P

That is why it's so great, Cool weather, meat & beer... & I'm A Happy Man... Also why it looks like I have a bowling ball under my shirt... ha ha ha...

Well...rigth now I'm in Frankfurt, and the Weather is 35º...

as a Slovenian I disagree a bit, especialy the weather, it can get really hot up to 40 degrees, but it's true that it can change in a day a lot (it can go from hot 30 degreees to rain and down to 15 degrees), it's not that cheep that's true, but depends on the cauntry, food is on the heavy side true, but we adapted and have vegetarian manues or food with less fat and come visit Slovenia, not many people know we exist, we used to be part of Yugoslavia, but many don't know how many different sires there are to our country, you can be at the Adriatic sea one moment and half an hour later you are skiing in the Alps, it's June now and in April we still had snow and you could go skiing, and than 3 hours later you are close to the Hungarian border where you can try out wine, I belive that the people in central Europe are quite friendly and if you go into the smaller towns people offer you home cooked meals and wine and I just love it :D

There are many things to love about travelling in Europe, the scenery, the food, the scenic train rides esp when it traverses the borders...but what I hate about Europe, esp within the last few years, is that it has become more and more dangerous with snatch thieves prowling the airports and stations, mainly gypsies, middle eastern or north african who are either jobless or came into Europe on refugee status. You have to be constantly alert and hold tight to your belongings. My friend had his mobile snatched from him sideway while he was talking and I had my backpack containing some cash and passport snatched from me when they distracted me by pretending to ask you something. All these happened because European borders are too porous and the police cant do much about these people.

There is a "like" button and a "dislike" button, but where is the needed "addictive channel" button?
