    I always wonder how tourists from the USA choose a hostel instead of a hotel or guesthouse, it is more convenient. Even though Poles earn much less, they would never choose a hostel. Poland is really cheap for tourists from the dollar or euro zone.😀

  • @goldilocks_walks

    Cheaper or not, $$$ goes further in general when you choose the least expensive option! In addition to saving money, hostels also provide epic social connection opportunities, and many even have free or discounted tours.

    @@martinkarnstein Sorry, but a poor person from America doesn't come to Poland. And hostels usually hire school trips, but they are a whole group and they don't need much. And I would never be afraid to go to a hostel alone. There is another Polish proverb; you can guess what it is, but I won't write it because maybe someone won't understand the allusion and will get offended.👍

    The tiles on the roof of the Matthias Church are a Hungarian invention. Their name is Majolinka ( mayolinka) , they were produced in the Zsolnay factory in Pécs ( not pex, pech) . You can see these on several buildings. 6:06 the closer chili (here it is called paprika) is not spicy. It's red because it's starting to ripen. Usually this type can be seen in yellowish white. Commonly used in dishes, sandwiches, salads, pickled and filled with cabbage. It is the basic ingredient of two dishes. This is lecso ( lecho) and stuffed peppers. The first one is an onion-tomato ragout, and the second one has spicy rice meat in the berry. The more distant kind is pungent.. So much so that even its name is hegyes erős (sharp and strong ). This is mainly sold in dark green form. This is in biological maturity. There is a third on top. This is the kapia. Its thick flesh is characterized by a sweet taste. it is eaten fresh, fried and grilled. I don't think peppers have as much culture in Mexico as here..😁 7:01 This guy was a writer and poet. He cultivated the Hungarian language at a very high level. Shakespeare's translations still give direction today. 7.32 Figures of a Hungarian fairy tale series on the projector. ( Magyar Népmesék )

    0:32 there are memes where smoked sausage is the car air freshener.. Hungarian goulash is always soup. Stew ( in hungarian pörkölt) is another dish. By the way, the word goulash is also the name of a shepherd who raises cattle (syn. cowboy). So this is their food.. Which is not true, because they even had to report the animal that died of the disease. There was no meat like that. Paprika was expensive. The onion too. They mainly ate boiled pasta, prepared in a special way. It's a slambuc. For the shoes: The perpetrators also "worked" later. You can see things about this in the House of Terror (many people with a farmer background could tell you about it...me too). The Málenkij robot memorial commemorates what happened between the two. The word is Russian and means little work. Which in practice is 15-20 years in Norilsk or somewhere else in Siberia. It was enough if you were in the wrong place at the wrong time.... But enough is enough. Next time you're there, look around Margitsziget, the Buda mountains, Mátra or Bükk national parks. You can go to Hortobágy or even to Bakony. This is a mountain range on the northern shore of Lake Balaton. I recommend WithWillie's channel.

    Did you know why Western Christian churches ring bells at noon? In 1456, the city belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary under the name Nándorfehérvár. It was the most important defense point of the southern central border. By this time, he had already successfully fended off an Ottoman attack. However, Sultan Mehmet II did not give up and attacked the fortress. The Kingdom of Hungary was also prepared, and sent its best general János Hunyadi there. He was already known for his abilities. The Pope also sent help. A monk and something else. We will return to this. The fortress had to be relieved from the outside and supported via the Danube river. But the Turkish troops blocked the way. However, the Hungarian warship men's (among whom there were many Serbs) broke through and destroyed the Turkish ships. Thus, food, gunpowder and rested soldiers reached the fortress. The monk successfully gathered about 15,000 insurgents. But their fighting value was weak... In the end, the Turkish attack was successfully repelled, but János Hunyadi died in the outbreak of the plague.His son is the most popular Hungarian ruler Mátyás. In the meantime, the other papal help reached the Europe of the time, too. "Pray and ring the bell at noon for Christian victory" Then the Pope amended: "This is how you give thanks for the Christian victory." This victory was a huge thing, as it was achieved against the superpower of the time
