In Bulgaria we don't even call it yoghurt - we call it sour milk aka ,,kiselo mlyako''. When we say yoghurt we think of Greek or Turkish yoghurt. And moreover, we are crazy about our ,,sour milk'', because it's just different in taste, and it is a great natural probiotic.

Romania`s GDP per capita is $20.000nominal and $45.000 ppp and has a gdp overall larger than almost all of the rest combined, minimum wage is about $750 and national average wage of about $1500(in places like Bucharest and Cluj is larger)....not only it has Mc`donalds but also Burger king, Poppey`s, KFC, Taco Bell, Subway, Starbucks etc.
2 clicks on Google The minimum salary in Romania in 2023 is 3,000 Lei gross or 1,863 Lei net. This means that somebody on minimum wages would bring home around 375 Euros each month
Back to actual values, the average take-home salary in Romania in 2023 is around 4,000 Lei per month (around 811 Euros). This is an increase of around 700 Lei compared to last year. The Gross Salary is around 6,650 Lei (yup, that much goes to taxes!)

As far as hospitality goes i highly doubt that Greeks are the most hospitable nowadays. Previous generations of Greeks (currently 70+ y/o) were super hospitable for sure but not those who are younger and definitely no one who has been raised in Athens (which is practically half our population) or in major cities. Idk how hospitable the rest of the Balkans are tbh but the Greek stereotype of being very hospitable and friendly is not the case anymore. When it comes to most attractive women i'd say Serbia for sure is first. So many gorgeous women. Romania or Croatia are probably second.
Well, I’m a Turkish woman and I felt always welcomed with Greek people during my time in Western Europe. I also welcomed them with open arms for sure. But, I can’t say the same thing for Bulgarians. These dudes were so disappointed after they learned I was Turkish and they changed 180 degreees

The Croatian guy has way too high an attitude and self-esteem. I saw him in several series of disrespecting Bulgaria. Unpleasant exemplar really! I am amazed that someone from Croatia 9:49 will embarrass himself knowing all the love and respect that most Croatians will have towards Bulgaria. We all need to have a second look at where exactly is Croatia located on the map. Whereas all the Balkans nations know exactly where and who Bulgaria is in terms of influence in our Balkan region. That says a lot🤫☺️

The best-looking women are certainly from Bulgaria and Romania. Romanians have more physically attracted by numbers, what I mean by that is more as quantities. But when a Bulgarian girl is beautiful….she is at the next level. She will literally walk around like a lioness showing her superior genes. This is very, very evident on the beaches of Greece when you can tell men are just attracted to our women.
I'm an Albanian from Montenegro and with all due respect to all Croatians and Greeks. Those two are the girls I dislike and strangely enough it's the Serbian girl I like most.

these counties cannot compete with turkish cousine even in the versus turkey vs all the others together. it’s huge and diverse country compared to any other nation based balkan state here. anatolia is melting pot region, despite of identifying themselves as turkish, all the people has different generic roots and of course their own local culture and cousine. for example there are 81 provinces with having 81 different famous dishes and some of them famous for 5-6 different dishes.
As a black Caribbean woman I always raise an eyebrow when countries say that they are hospitable... sadly often they are not. I think TRUE hospitality is when you are welcoming to people that don't like you or don't have a similar cultural background. Despite the difference you are in brace anyways.
Amen. So difficult to convince wise people these days. There's no gesturing you with hospitality in a place unless you are completely foreign. Even I am hardly ever taken seriously when discussing this.
I've seen more colored people in Belgrade, either attending universities or just there leisurely, I can't say much about other places but our region has been growing with diversity. Asians have their own shops in some places, it's nice to see.
Yeah. It kinda come with crime statistic. In my country most crimes are done by gypsies /mostly tefts/, when we look at USA crime statistics its motly done by blacks, here when refugee crisis hit most problems were from PoC What tf do you expect? ppl to go against their experience and live in fanatasy world? also fck fake hospitality. It should be earned and deserved not given becasue you exist. All the hospitality is MCDonalds one. The smile becasue they think how to take your money in best possible way. Also I have friends all around the world and one of my bf is afghani

I have been to Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia and Bulgaria and so far I think Croatian Women are most beautiful and Croatian people are #more kind and welcoming in general as compare to their neighbors 😊😊😊
True on women being beautiful, not so much on them being the kindest, most sincere, and hospitable; Croatian women tend to be very selfish, even with boyfriend.
So Mother Theresa was born in 1910 in Uskup (Today Skopje), the largest city with an Albanian population in the Ottoman Empire. North Macedonia was just a dream (of serbs) in the making at the time.

03:25 Yogurt is Turkic food not Bulgarian or Greece. It is a drink of nomadic people from ancient times. From Uyghurs to Kumyks and Azerbaijanis in the Caucasus, as well as Turks in Turkey drink it. Because Turkic people have intolerance to the milk, they developed this drink. The word Bulgaria itself is a Turkic word. It is not Slavic, let alone to say Yogurt. The modern Bulgars could adopt yogurt from old Turkic Bulgars or Ottomans. Remember that Turkic people lived in Bulgaria before modern Bulgars. Of course, Baklava, Yogurt, dolma, coffee,, kebabs it is all Turkish/Ottoman. Greece has itself a wonderful culture and delicious cuisine. I don't understand Greeks who say that dolma, baklava, yogurt or coffee is Greek. Why? It is obvious that no, it is not Greek. The Azerbaijanis and Georgians lived for 1000 years and more together, but we have never said that Khacapuri is Azerbaijani or Georgians never said pahlava or dolma (which is different than Turkish baklava or dolma/sarma) is Georgian, despite that both countries cook it for centres at their homes. Only Armenians say Armenian dolma, Armenian coffee, Armenian baklava. It is also obvious that it is not Armenian because they have no idea what does it mean in translation. As an Azerbaijani I like Greek cuisine, because they cook delicious fish and Greece is fascinating country. I go there for holidays a lot. Please do not be like Armenians to think that everything is yours. Because it makes than you own culture less appreciated. There live so many ethnic minorities in Azerbaijan, but an Azerbaijani Turk will never say that Lezgin bread ckan, Talysh levengi food is Azerbaijani Turks' cuisine even in one country Azerbaijanis respect the name of the dish of the ethnic group that has it, because they all very delicious and we have to appreciate the origin of the dish and culture behind the invention. That is the reason why Azerbaijanis and Georgians do not have fight over the food, because we know that khacapuri is Georgian, they know that dolma, lavash is Azerbaijani. It is simply, because it would be weird if Azerbaijanis would name their dishes in Georgian or wise versa. However, Armenians still put to every name of the dish adjective Armenian... dolma, coffee, lavash, khacapuri etc. Origin of the food is also interesting to know. We all love Doner in Europe, but only few know that it is actually was invented in Germany by a Turkish Immigrant. Thus, it makes it more German than Turkish. Hamburger is invented in the US, but the word is German. It is always interesting to know the history behind the food rather than just say it is "ours". Greetings from Azerbaijan. It would be nice to make a video about the dating culture of the Azerbaijani people. Thanks Marina and Dating Beyond Borders team for a great videos!
@@masterarmsim no lol? Armenians have very different look than Turks. He doesnt look Armenoid at all. Are all "tanned skin" people in this world Armenian or Greek origin?
@@diofromyozgat ı have good racist eyes. When I see an Armenian/greek tanness I recognize it. Sure there are Semitic and Indian browns but they are not Caucasian like Armenians and Greeks. The color of your skin is mostly about the climate you live in. Structure of your skull, skeleton and shape of your face on the other hand, is about your race. For example, a Greek or Armenian might have a tanned skin but in the end they are Caucasian. But a blonde East Slav or Turk not fully Caucasian but mixture of Caucasian and Asian.

It's North Macedonia.
Macedonia is a region in Greece. 🧐
North Macedonia is Bulgaria.
MK is region in BG also XDD
Why the Bosnia hates so much Bulgaria. Dude educate a little.
? why
It's pretty ironic how serbian woman put Bulgarian women at the bottom of the list, when she is at the bottom of the list of the women in this video
Awesome video
I loved the edition in this video! Great job 👏
Just because a word has its origin from one language doesn't mean that they invented the thing. They just popularised it enough to dictate the naming.
Cmon dude. Borek is Turkish
@@istanbuloite Anything that is related to pastry and especially sweets most likely are Turkish yeh, maybe a few Bulgarian and one or two Greek.
But yogurt is not Turkish.
@@gaarakabuto1 not Istanbul or Constantinople, not baklava, not caciki or whatever you call it, not dolma sarma sucuk or the suffix -iki you add, not even the western Turkiye, but yogurt can start a war.
Uyghur Turks in china even call it yogurt and eat it with all meals. Don’t. Dooont 😡
yogurt is turkish by the way
the word is with turkish origin. Its invented way before that. You may be surprised to learn that indians in NA are in fact not Indians from India but just named that way XDD
Total and BP need to invest in Turkish oil wrestling, winner received some Delight! 😎
Two notes:
- Although Mother Teresa was born in what is now North Macedonia, she was Albanian and she always acknowledged that.
- The poorest country in all of Europe is Moldova.
It's funny how that Slavic Macedonian takes pride over that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@blerimimodaable like they want to be ancient Macedonians GAGAAG
I'm pretty sure it's Ukraine.
LOOOL! that oil wresting moment is priceless🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I even find that way beyond weird as a Turk 😂😂😂
The Croatian guy has way too high an attitude and self-esteem. I saw him in several series of disrespecting Bulgaria. Unpleasant exemplar really! I am amazed that someone from Croatia 9:49 will embarrass himself knowing all the love and respect that most Croatians will have towards Bulgaria. We all need to have a second look at where exactly is Croatia located on the map. Whereas all the Balkans nations know exactly where and who Bulgaria is in terms of influence in our Balkan region. That says a lot🤫☺️
You're right, dear. I want to apologize for this guy. Some of our people are arrogant and full of themselves, thinking they're God's chosen people. Similar as other Ex-Yugoslavs. People like him a very simple minded and focus only on Catholicism, not knowing our excellent relationship through history. Every educated person here holds the Bulgarian people in high regard. You've been always with us. И аз уча български всеки ден. Много обичам България и българския хора. Много поздрави от твоя сестра. :) ❤️

Greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸
They didn't want to wake up Montenegrins
It feels like people will make Bulgaria be bottom in everything. The yogurt thing is cool but there is cooler ones. We ugly I guess ;(
You aren't. 🇧🇬❤️
This girl is just ignorant.
Ugly? Not at all. Bulgaria is a very intriguing country with a great culture.
That's how life is sometimes

Rubbing and hugging other wet slippery hard men is not gay COPEEEEEE
The best-looking women are certainly from Bulgaria and Romania. Romanians have more physically attracted by numbers, what I mean by that is more as quantities. But when a Bulgarian girl is beautiful….she is at the next level. She will literally walk around like a lioness showing her superior genes. This is very, very evident on the beaches of Greece when you can tell men are just attracted to our women.
The Croatian girl is so pretty! I'm going crazy 🤪
F off. I saw her first.
I guess they did not invite a Kosovo guy/girl to avoid political problems😂
Well there also isn’t someone from Slovenia or Montenegro and for moldovo But idk of moldovo is Even Part of the Balkan
He said ,,Your eyes are extremelly beautiful``
I'm an Albanian from Montenegro and with all due respect to all Croatians and Greeks. Those two are the girls I dislike and strangely enough it's the Serbian girl I like most.
I guess I'm someone from outside the Balkans watching this video
Google "croatian coastline mean height of 17-20 year old men". We are the tallest men in Europe, and second tallest in the world after that Sudanese tribe. We are the Gigachads indeed.

the persons saying macedonia are all greek and bulgarian
these counties cannot compete with turkish cousine even in the versus turkey vs all the others together. it’s huge and diverse country compared to any other nation based balkan state here. anatolia is melting pot region, despite of identifying themselves as turkish, all the people has different generic roots and of course their own local culture and cousine. for example there are 81 provinces with having 81 different famous dishes and some of them famous for 5-6 different dishes.
As a black Caribbean woman I always raise an eyebrow when countries say that they are hospitable... sadly often they are not.
I think TRUE hospitality is when you are welcoming to people that don't like you or don't have a similar cultural background. Despite the difference you are in brace anyways.
You mean as africans do to white people in africa? Where they kill the boers? And the albinos?
Amen. So difficult to convince wise people these days. There's no gesturing you with hospitality in a place unless you are completely foreign. Even I am hardly ever taken seriously when discussing this.
I've seen more colored people in Belgrade, either attending universities or just there leisurely, I can't say much about other places but our region has been growing with diversity. Asians have their own shops in some places, it's nice to see.
Yeah. It kinda come with crime statistic. In my country most crimes are done by gypsies /mostly tefts/, when we look at USA crime statistics its motly done by blacks, here when refugee crisis hit most problems were from PoC
What tf do you expect? ppl to go against their experience and live in fanatasy world?
also fck fake hospitality. It should be earned and deserved not given becasue you exist. All the hospitality is MCDonalds one. The smile becasue they think how to take your money in best possible way.
Also I have friends all around the world and one of my bf is afghani
Nobody cares, subhuman. Stay in your country.
Not gonna lie hearing Balkan bros talking about how good looking our people are kinda makes me proud but also ashamed cause I’m ugly as shit 😢
Your are a channel that gets a kick out of countries fighting against each other. Your thumbnails literally put countries that oppose each other. No original content.....
Oil wrestling was part of Greece but now kept in Turkey.
I have been to Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia and Bulgaria and so far I think Croatian Women are most beautiful and Croatian people are #more kind and welcoming in general as compare to their neighbors 😊😊😊
Slovakia has nothing to do with any of the other countries
True on women being beautiful, not so much on them being the kindest, most sincere, and hospitable; Croatian women tend to be very selfish, even with boyfriend.
@@S80-r1o actually they do have indeed, Slovaks and Croats share same ancestors, medieval white Croats were ancestors of both of this nations

where the hell is kosovo
Most of the food from balkans is originary from Turky :D Us romanians took turkish food and make it taste far more better :D
Wait, Albania *_used_* to be one of the poorest countries in Europe?
Still not far from it
My Southern bell girlfriend is getting very "well acquainted" with my Croatian family😂
You asked about food and the war started 😂😂😂
Why is the ❤of Balkan (KOSOVO) not in Ther.?? You cant Say the word Balkan if Kosovo is not the Secound Word.!!
yoğurt means to make something yoğun a turkish word i think
Biggest oil producer after Spain maybe 🇬🇷.
Not even 2nd. We're 5th after Spain, Italy, Turkey and Tunisia.
So Mother Theresa was born in 1910 in Uskup (Today Skopje), the largest city with an Albanian population in the Ottoman Empire. North Macedonia was just a dream (of serbs) in the making at the time.
In the intro i see that the countries are written in english, EXCEPT TÜRKIYE! proud to be türkish ❤😄🇹🇷
Turkey is now starting to be spelled more and more like Turkeyé or Turkiyé in English, you are welcome Turkiyé!
EN alphabet doesnt have this letter. So probably just courtesy
Okayyy…

03:25 Yogurt is Turkic food not Bulgarian or Greece. It is a drink of nomadic people from ancient times. From Uyghurs to Kumyks and Azerbaijanis in the Caucasus, as well as Turks in Turkey drink it. Because Turkic people have intolerance to the milk, they developed this drink. The word Bulgaria itself is a Turkic word. It is not Slavic, let alone to say Yogurt. The modern Bulgars could adopt yogurt from old Turkic Bulgars or Ottomans. Remember that Turkic people lived in Bulgaria before modern Bulgars.
Of course, Baklava, Yogurt, dolma, coffee,, kebabs it is all Turkish/Ottoman. Greece has itself a wonderful culture and delicious cuisine. I don't understand Greeks who say that dolma, baklava, yogurt or coffee is Greek. Why? It is obvious that no, it is not Greek. The Azerbaijanis and Georgians lived for 1000 years and more together, but we have never said that Khacapuri is Azerbaijani or Georgians never said pahlava or dolma (which is different than Turkish baklava or dolma/sarma) is Georgian, despite that both countries cook it for centres at their homes. Only Armenians say Armenian dolma, Armenian coffee, Armenian baklava. It is also obvious that it is not Armenian because they have no idea what does it mean in translation.
As an Azerbaijani I like Greek cuisine, because they cook delicious fish and Greece is fascinating country. I go there for holidays a lot. Please do not be like Armenians to think that everything is yours. Because it makes than you own culture less appreciated. There live so many ethnic minorities in Azerbaijan, but an Azerbaijani Turk will never say that Lezgin bread ckan, Talysh levengi food is Azerbaijani Turks' cuisine even in one country Azerbaijanis respect the name of the dish of the ethnic group that has it, because they all very delicious and we have to appreciate the origin of the dish and culture behind the invention. That is the reason why Azerbaijanis and Georgians do not have fight over the food, because we know that khacapuri is Georgian, they know that dolma, lavash is Azerbaijani. It is simply, because it would be weird if Azerbaijanis would name their dishes in Georgian or wise versa. However, Armenians still put to every name of the dish adjective Armenian... dolma, coffee, lavash, khacapuri etc.
Origin of the food is also interesting to know. We all love Doner in Europe, but only few know that it is actually was invented in Germany by a Turkish Immigrant. Thus, it makes it more German than Turkish. Hamburger is invented in the US, but the word is German. It is always interesting to know the history behind the food rather than just say it is "ours".
Greetings from Azerbaijan. It would be nice to make a video about the dating culture of the Azerbaijani people. Thanks Marina and Dating Beyond Borders team for a great videos!
the propaganda is storong with you my friend
Lost ur all credibility with making doner german made
@@ixirion I think you need to stop your ridicolous racist beliefs
coffee is turkish... man, just calm down ok, don't get redicolous please!
Did Turkey kept the same history propaganda at school for 500 years?
the turkish guy has definetly bosniak pomak or bulgarian origin
Pomak and Kipcak Turks are way more blonde tho. Emir being tanned skinned he probably comes from converted Greek/Armenian family.
There are bosniaks, bulgarians, albanians in the video but he doesn’t look like any of them. Basically cuz he’s turkish.
@@masterarmsim Bro just stop trying to makes us like we are a fake ethnostate. We are turkish! If you have problem with that go figure that
@@masterarmsim no lol? Armenians have very different look than Turks. He doesnt look Armenoid at all. Are all "tanned skin" people in this world Armenian or Greek origin?
@@diofromyozgat ı have good racist eyes. When I see an Armenian/greek tanness I recognize it. Sure there are Semitic and Indian browns but they are not Caucasian like Armenians and Greeks. The color of your skin is mostly about the climate you live in. Structure of your skull, skeleton and shape of your face on the other hand, is about your race. For example, a Greek or Armenian might have a tanned skin but in the end they are Caucasian. But a blonde East Slav or Turk not fully Caucasian but mixture of Caucasian and Asian.
