- www.aswetravel... Bratislava, Slovakia: We’ve arrived in Bratislava. Let’s go and check in to the hostel. We’re in Bratislava, the capital city of Slovakia. Bratislava is known for its very vibrant café culture and its many statues. So we’re going to start the day by trying to find as many statues as we can. This is one of the more practical statues. It also works as a post box. This guy makes me feel so short. Here is a paparazzi statue. We’re walking around the old town and Sophia just walked pass the peeping Tom statue. He’s lying on the ground, looking up girls skirts. I think it’s kind of funny. There are so many quirky, fun statues in this part of town. This is a statue of Schone Naci. He was a local here. He used to walk around town handing out flowers, singing songs; wearing a top hat. He was a bit eccentric about it. You might recognize this guy here as Napoleon. Here’s another statue. I’m starting to feel like there are more statues than people here. It’s been really fun to walk around the old town and check out all the quirky statues. It’s like a fun game to walk around the town and see if you can find them all.
Now we’re going to head up to the Bratislava Castle. Apparently it’s a great view over the city. We walked up to the Bratislava castle and it’s the icon of Bratislava and you can get a great view over the city. Although it looks really new, it’s been here since 907. They just recently renovated it. This has to be one of the coolest churches I’ve ever seen. It’s bright blue. It looks like a fairy tale church. Apparently it’s blue inside as well. We’ve had a great day here in Bratislava. There are so many quirky details about the city. You know, from all those statues to the narrowest building in central Europe. And that blue church is so funny. They also have a really strong café culture, so we ordered two coffees. We’re going to sit here, relax and tomorrow, off to Vienna.

Its a lovely place to hang around!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely city.
I want to visit Slovakia. My family is from there and I hear it is great.
Same here. I'm sure I still have plenty of family there so I would love to know more about the birthplace of my family name.
Come over! You'll be warmly welcome here.
" Enjoy Bratislava. It's good you came in summer, in winter it can get very depressing..."
lolzzzzzzzzzz
Thanks guys for visiting my country . Hope you have great time, too bad you didnt stay longer . there is much more beautiful places to see . Thanks for the inspiration with your travels. I wish to be more adventurous as you are :)

i'm trying to get as much money saved before feb and then i plan to grab a ticket, land in Paris and kinda wing it from there. it's inspiring to know that nathan did it with only 100euro, and has lasted 8 years haha! i've got 3months secured but hope to travel for over a year. cheers for the contact info, will no hear from me soon!
haha hey Mason no problem with the questions - always happy to help, you can contact us via email here if you want: aswetravel(dot)com/about - we fund our travels with our travel blog, earning money from advertisements etc. no other jobs for us - Nathan left NZ to Europe about 8 years ago with only 100euro in his pocket, no savings and no job plans - money shouldn't be a reason to not travel - there are always options it just comes down to taking action and that first step. :)
Kto je zo Slovenska LIKE !!! :D
Muito bom.
Nice movie! Cool costumes. Irish dance? Or what?..
thanks for your lovely comment.
i'm probably abusing the privilege of commenting on your vids.. but i have so many questions! i'm desperate to get out and travel long term but no idea how i'm going to sustain myself financially.. do you guys work in between travel?? i haven't completed my degree, so teaching english might be tough? i've been to SE asia once before, but it was brief. how do you fund your lifestyle? (assuming you weren't born into affluence..) TY
Mongols have a challenging life - their capital city (Ulaanbataar) is very cold - look at the averages its colder than Winnipeg, Saskatoon and Moscow and people there were very poor. That is why they roamed to Europe - even if they bought their issues with them. Many who visited it have another view of those folk
@videogoatbird nope not Irish - it is a traditional slovak dance from Slovakia.
my country and i love tha place when i went thwere there was a humnan real statuse and he scared me ahahahhahahha lol
We have many kings since 871 Great Moravia (Svatopluk), later in Ungarn monarchy
for 8 centuries all kings were crowned in Bratislava, and Bratislava was the capital of Ungarn monarchy 1536-1784. There was only Slovak kings since 11 th century when Gejza I. Magnus was crowned. He was a son of Belo (Nitra´s earl) and Anastasia Jaroslavna (Kyiev. Rus).
Sorry, but I had to reply,.This is not a historical or political travelogue, a young couple who are touring Europe, they do not care and do not show our local political disagreements and misunderstandings .. In every city they visited I see similar comments .. Nobody understand the point of this series
These are all hungarian names except Svatopluk, but he's only a children's book character.. Btw. Sebök is a hungarian name too ;)
miklós szurdi I know history of my surname. Serfs did not have surnames till 19 th century. So my grand grand grandpa could be Filip from Žilina. After Magyiarisation (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magyarization) many slavs (Serbs, Croats, Slovaks) were given Magyar surnames..
miklós szurdi hungarian - as language has no base . it evolved by adopting , adapting , modification and annexing words from traveling true and surrounding nations true its history . even thou it has nickname as ugrofinian language .
guys, I'm Slovak but if you think that such a thing as Slovaks or Magyars existed back in 1000 then I have some very bad news for you... please stop arguing in circles about things with little impact on today's society ;)
:D just reminding you that doublecross is slavic symbol brought by cyril and method in 843 :-) and where was hungary in 843? nowhere.. this area was and forever will be settled by slavs.. take a bow son ;-)
ja som stoho statu

How about justice for the Slovaks. The Magyars tried to eliminate the Slovak language and culture.
