      @UCaExrfeFws6pVDtCIr-W7Lg actually Jewish. Originating in Poland, brought to the US by Jewish immigrants. Bagels are a part of NY food culture. And the Jewish community was in many ways much more at home in the US and in New York than in Europe.

    Regarding the "You just can't get away from America..." I'm German, but once I had a similar experience. I was visiting Paris with my school class. We were walking in the streets of the famous Monmartre hill towards the Sacre Coeur Church. Suddendly, we entered a small square and I saw an almost unbelievable stereotypical french scene: People sitting outside of a small Café, street painters selling their works while painting, golden evening sunlight... It was really amazing, almost like a dream.
    Then I turned around and saw a "Starbucks"...

    • @seraphina985
      @seraphina985 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Guess it's pretty much the reverse experience but reminds me of a time visiting the US (I'm from UK) walking down this street and it was like bar, bar, steakhouse, mcdonalds, bar, irish pub. Granted I know there is a large Irish population in the US so not that surprising to see one I guess and sure I'm British not Irish but still was interesting going from seeing American stuff pretty much everywhere then to actually visit the US and suddenly come across something that feels like a piece of home in the middle of it heh. But then admittedly it probably stood out more to me at the time as I was over there for work at the time and it was pretty much exactly what I was looking for just when I was starting to think "Maybe I should just go back to the hotel not feeling any of these places". Nothing against American bars there just that I was on my own at the end of a long day and craving a different atmosphere than I get from American style bars ie more like a pub or what I'd tend to call a cafe-bar (Pretty much along the lines of a continental European type bar), could just be my weird preferences but American bars feel more like a kickstart atmosphere great for starting a night out not so great for winding down if that makes sense. Also was rather pleasantly surprised to be introduced to a couple of craft beers in there which dispelled the notion that Americans can't brew a beer to save their life, kinda mystifying how none of the good beers succeeded in the market there though perhaps too few consumers are able to recognise a good beer when they see it after years of desensitisation lol.

      There are two perfectly usable trains connected to one another, which sometimes drives just by one (not connected). To me, it Is two trams connected. If it were more modern types of trams, such as Škoda 15t that is one long piece, then it would be mentioned in singular. Btw. the example of train is invalid, since vagoons (usually) cannot drive by themselves, opposed to trams.

That’s True, but Remember Europe is made of a lot of countries and in most of them you can easily find very old buildings or monuments, every country is unique... and we haven’t too much Skyscrapers 🏙 similar to America ... there are only a few of them... too high constructions are limited and themselves the Europeans made this choice! I think this is good, somehow there is a sense of space and you can breathe... for example in New York you have a sense of stress and too much cement everywhere... It’s cool to visit but not to live permanently...

    This one is called Pizza Marinara originating from Neaple only spiced with Oregano and Garlic.
    So yes, i have seen and had it myself - wood oven style. Easy to make yourself too ^^ And it's one tram with two tram cars. They can be seperated and drive individually if needed. So... 2 in 1 i guess?
    You're starting to exhibit signs of "Lagerkoller" - get out of the apartment and/or talk with someone about it, please. Take a backpack, hop in your car and drive to the countryside, get some sun and air. We're just at the beginning of this and don't want you to go crazy.

    Great show Dana! I liked it, it reminded me to the "good old times" before photography was digitized.
    We had a very specific form of "torture" for friends and family usually taking place in early autumn after the travel and vacation season.
    That was called "Dia-Abend", when everyone invited everyone to view their very skillfully taken pictures of sunburned bodies at the "Teutonengriff" in Italy, any world famous monuments brutally squeezed at the edge of the photo presenting "Onkel Franz" in front of the Colloseum or "Tante Emma" besides the pyramids. and many out of focus snapshots taken too fast for 20th Century imaging equipment.
    One main feature of the torture were the angry discussions where, when and why a particular photo was taken as there was this massive timegap between taking the picture and the first time you were able to watch it .
    But of course neither Onkel Franz nor Tante Emma were so enthusiastic about their photos and memories as you presented us on your 1st experiences on a european life style.
    So many traditions lost in this brave new digital world where your beloved ones get GoPro HD Real Time footage from your vacation :-)

    Re: Tram/Trams. It is one tram with 2 cars to it. The tram is a term for a singular collective of something. For example you wouldn't say "trains" if you were waiting for a train (singular) even though there are multiple cars that make it up. Each car is not an individual train; it's collectively a singular unit train Transpose that concept to trams, and ya get ONE tram with multiple cars. ☺🙋

    So I just clicked on the video because the police car looked so familiar :-D , the green & white design (used also in Slovakia). Usually when Americans make videos about "life in Europe", it's 95% the UK, France, Germany or Spain. This is quite refreshing, to see a story from a neighbouring country even though I take Prague as my second home since I go there quite often. Thinking about visiting Slovakia anytime soon?

    Pizza Margherita is not the same thing as pizza marinara. Pizza Margherita definitely has cheese, and also something with a small bit of green--perhaps basil leaves, or just a very few whole olives--because it's supposed to mirror the colors of the Italian flag. (I first had pizza Margherita in Hamburg, and it had exactly four whole green olives on it.)

This is the 28th October Street (ulice 28. října). The Wenceslas Square begins at the end of the block, just past the building on the right with the sun-lit green-roofed turret.

I had some of the most awesome deer dish of my whole life and it was incredibly cheap (I think we paid something like 25 Marks (don't remember what that was in the Czecslowakian crwons back then) for the 4 of us, including a bottle of really nice wine ...

    Erm, I think you misstook German Magarithapizza with actual "Käsepizza" (cheese pizza). Often times, if you order Magarithapizza you just get a pizza with less cheese (it's often done on purpose so you can add meat and other things on it yourself). It's something foreigners often overlook. But if you order Käsepizza you get a pizza a ton of cheese. But I am still glad to know you feel happy to be here.

    The "little car" is a Škoda Fabia, but the "Kobi" (wagon) version of it. So yes, it's actually classified as a "Kleinwagen" in Germany. The non-estate/wagon is even a bit shorter. It shares the same platform with the VW Polo, which is so small that it isn't even offered in the USA, there the smallest Volkswagen people can buy is the Golf. So this picture is appropriately titled.
