You have to try Laško beer

Maybe 10 years ago, nowadays you have a dozen different independent breweries producing much better beer (e.g. Pelicon, HopsBrew).

As a Slovenian, I can say this is probably one of the best summaries of Slovenia I've seen. And also you did quite well on the pronunciation most of the time. So respect for that, because our language can be a real pain in the ass.

Im from Slovenia.
It should be noted that Bohinj lake is not the Largest lake ALL of the time. The largest lake in Slovenia (Cerknica lake) has a habit of disapearing.
Umm, what?
@@andya.4253 Fun story. When the water levels are high a massive part of the field floods and forms the largest lake in Slovenia. (usualy during the winter/spring/fall months.) When the water levels are lower (due to lack of recent rainfall) the water flows back into the underground caves and the lake shrinks and finaly disapears. All part of the Carst geography, where most of the ground has massive holes (or caves) evreywhere.
@@andya.4253 It's a phenomena caused by the Karst landscape; sometimes it's by far the largest lake in the country and sometimes it's almost completely drained lol

Totally undersold the Italian/Venetian influences. Slovenian are passionate (like Italians), raunchy (like other Slavs), and well organised (like Germanic peoples). The place and people are AWESOME.

As an Austrian it feels weird knowing that Slovenia was in Yugoslavia. They are considered Central Europeans here and it feels like they have been in the EU as long as we have :D (I know it was 9 years later but they are in there for 16(!!) years now!) And they also use Euro as currency^^
Greetings to our Neighbours with their beautiful landscape :)
Actualy by the DNA Slovenain are more like like Slovak/Cezcs or sout/east Austrains than Croat or Serbs.
It is possible that back in time Slovenian was the same tribe as Slovak/Cezcs, but then come Huns/Hungarians from the east and German from the north
Yep, I as half southern Austrian can agree. They are like our little step brother, raised by a slavic dad and the same germanic mother we had.
We have the same joy for mountaineering, drink wine and Schnaps and enjoy dancing Polkas to the Oberkrainer-style music with the Steirische. And it could be possible, that they were formally a western slavic tribe, since the Czechs also have the same destinies for drinking Beer and dancing to Polkas. ^^
We are just one family, lep pozdrav!! ;)
Lol, I work in Austria an we (Slovenes) are all treated as Yugos by Austrians...
Is that supose to be an insult to other Yugoslav countries considering that part of Croatia and Serbia are in Central Europe (Slavonia and Vojvodina) and their all countries are in Central-European time zone.
You really didn't know? Austrian education system sucks :D
Geography now: extensive network of roads connecting every region
Koroška: Am I a joke to you
Koroska is not a municipality
Koroška doesn't really exist. It is like Australia.
@@30dk09 Not it's not. It's a traditional region and contains several municipalities. It's quite under-developed and underfunded as the majority of the traditional region now lies in Austria and since the decline of most heavy industry in the region, but recently tourism is becoming more economically important there, so there is growing pressure to update the infrastructure.

Wait you call "kurz" "kurc". Wow interesting
@@oxanity7737 that's how it's pronounced in german. It also means d;ck in slovene...
I'm a Brit living in Slovenia, and oh boy the difficulties for people learning the language... yeah.. tell me about it... It makes you feel especially stupid when like you said 2-3 languages for everyone. The weird thing is it depends which border is the closest to you as to what the 3rd language is... Near Italy? Italian it is! Near Austria? Slide into German! etc. The introduction of a 3rd language of English across the country I’ve found is usually dependent on the age/ generation gap (which with their history makes sense). If someone is under 35 you’ve got about a 90% chance that they speak English. Over 35 is a bit hit and miss.
Food is great, wine is fantastic (although other spirits made at home are fun. Got given a home-made bottle with a sticker that said 24%-49% alcohol they didn’t know exactly), and if you start your day early enough you can wake up in the flat farming plains of Europe, go skiing and sunbathing on the coast all in the same day... which is just stupid...
The traditions parts you mentioned were a little off from what I've learnt. Each valley (YES VALLEY!!!) has its own traditions and at times language (yes tell me about it); the 212 municipalities give you an idea. The 3-day birth of a child party for example is 1 day where I am based. At weddings it's tradition in some parts for the father of the groom to provide a wheelbarrow (or modern-day trolley) filled with multiple gifts for the mother of the bride but not anywhere else in the country. Traditionally these would-be things like fruits, vegetables (farming powerhouse tractor reference coming through) and alcohol... lots of that.
If anyone does read this and wants to ask for experiences feel free 😊 Most of them are amazing 😉
Slovenian(Prekmurian or Vandalic language) has few interesting similarities or words which are related with English or Saxonic. For example; Indri (Other; nindri - nowhere; like "no+indri"); Inda (Ancient), piyk (pijk) - pick or pickaxe; bagzivati(betatism v/b; to fuck"; fecit in latin), other slovenian - english similarities; veslo - vessel, brada - beard, brihten - bright, brod - ford, brv - bridge, bukev (also a beech)- book, češnje/črešnje - cherries, čar - charm, drag - dear, gnezdo - nest, grabiti - to grab, grozd - grape, grozen - gruesome, grunt - ground / property, gomila (also old slavic word for a grave) , hulm - hill, grob - grave (betatism), hasek - use, hiša - house, krasta - crust, klat - kill, koča - cottage, lan - linen, krava - cow (r is reduced), luk - leek, mlin - mill, motika - mattock, ogledati - ogle; to look - lukati (from which derives lik; figure; lice - face ), pest - fist (p/f), planota - plain, pleniti - to plunder, pluti - float, plug - plough, pot - path, rod - genus (root) etc etc
Ok how do you fell abaut slovinia?
@@cimet2635 I like it, some things are different of course. Some of them don't bother me some do. The weird opening hours for public offices for example is... yeah... The people are great, food and wine is awesome, the language differences across the country are highly annoying though. I am not the best at languages, so Slovene is a real challenge to me (but i do keep trying!), however with full time employment and a small child, time is limited. Therefore finding out certain words i learn don't apply in other areas of the country annoys me to no end!

4:56 The castle on top left is called Bojnický zámok (Bojnice castle) and is located in Slovakia
8:11 That's not in Slovenia either. It's Dóm sv. Martina (St. Martin's Cathedral) located in Bratislava, right next to Bratislava castle
8:29 Again this square is not in Ljubljana, but in Bratislava and it's called Hlavné námestie (Main square)
Otherwise great video. Love from Slovakia
yap that's right, you have good observation
Good spot, I only noticed the St.Martin's cathedral at 8:11.
Anyway, some content for Friday's mistakes episode :)
need to go watch the Slovakia video now, to see if they confused you with us as well :) greets from Ljubljana
Fun fact, your demographic intro (11:54), these guys in black suits with stripes and hats, represent slovenian folklore, they are called "kopjaši". Basically non-married single males, who can be "kopjaši" only, if they attended folklore dance for several years, or if they inherited uniform from their father/grandfather. Their task is to accompany grooms at weddings and bring joy and happiness and dance rythm to the wedding and much more.
It's not even known among most of Slovenians, since it comes from a specific region only (my municipality, consisting of 4000 people), so it's amazing to see it in your video
From all of countries in Europe where I've been (UK, Hungary, Greece, Slovakia, Czechia, Netherlands, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Denmark, Austria, Slovenia, Italy and Poland where I live) Slovenia is one of the top ones, like really, there's everything near the capital, mountains, sea, beautiful lakes. I'll definitely go there again, especially to Bled lake, 10/10, the best lake I've ever seen.
When I visited Slovenia, I had gulyás with gnocchi, and that's a pretty good way to understand what Slovenia is.
Slovene cuisine is a mix, if you don't go for the purely traditional fare, of course. Every regions food in it's regional restaurants is your safest bet, otherwise gulyás with gnocchi, sounds about right.
Well, you described it perfectly!

If Covid had allowed it, Slovenia would have been my holiday destination last year. Greetings from Bavaria! Slovenia is such a beautiful, lovely country.
Bavaria? It’s part of Germany right?
@@krateproductions4872 Well, no, but actually yes. 😁 It's like Germany's Texas and most Germans outside Bavaria might tell you that it should really belong to Austria and also might roll their eyes a bit, because many Bavarians actually consider themselves Bavarians first, Germans second. Most of it is tongue in cheek, though, so no hard feelings.
We'll still be here after COVID, so welcome! I'll trade you a bottle of wine or a few large beers for a pretzel. :)
Yes that would be very nice. We need tourists here(we need money).
@@MihaSinkovec1981 Haha, deal! I'll also bring some Bavarian beer for a taste testing then. The wines up in the Franconia region are not too bad either.
Finally!! A great video to explain the lovely place we are in!!!
I learned a lot about a great country. Thanks!
Oh, Slovenia
That quiet brother who secretly lefts the family and suddenly becomes way richer than the other siblings
bulgaria also in the balkans
(love slovenia and estonia from bulgaria 🇧🇬🇪🇪🇸🇮)
@S no... Estonia is not way richer than the rest of Baltics, i think Lithuania has a even higher GDP than Estonia
And call themselves "Germans" and "Switzerland" 😂😂😂
@@KrlKngMrtssn We don't.Nobody does that.Germans got genocided in 1943
@@KrlKngMrtssn yeah it is like Germans calling themselves Nazis. Some time ago more people did that as a trend, now only the deranged people that are not in touch with reality do it.
I’m from Australia and visited Slovenia. One of the most beautiful nations on Earth! Cost of food is very reasonable too. Would love to go back there and explore more of the country.
Are you serious? I think thanx but im from slovenia and I think thats for me most borring country.
But really thanx i didn't know anyone could like Slovenia so much
@@janglaser585 i think that we are just used to it, after looking at slovenia from the tourists point of view i could see it being very interesting (sea being only 3h drive from the mountains, lake bled etc...)
@@JukoYT sea is like 1.5h from the mountains and ljubljana but yea
I mean the fact that at lake Bled you can get scammed for the water. As a Slovenian who went there, a little water bottle costs a bit less than the big one. So it is kind of a scam. Also, the food at very well known restaurants is really expensive. So if you go there again I recommend going to the local store and local restaurants since they think foreigners can pay more.
@@JukoYT right
7:06 When I was little, we used to go to croatia on vacation and we would always go thru slovenia. I always wanted to go to the postojna cave and because of that we would always arrive at night in our destination.
Sava river ends in Belgrade, Serbia, not in Croatia. It mergest with Danube at Belgrade.
Slovenia is definitely one of the most beautiful countries in Europe! I'm from Germany and I've been to Slovenia a couple of times. I've visited Maribor, Kranjska Gora, Planica, Lake Bled, Triglav National Park and the Postojna Cave. Weirdly enough tho I've never been to Ljubljana but I hope that I can visit it someday. Best wishes to all Slovenians from Germany^^ Oh and I hope your ski jumpers get back to the top someday. I loved those times when Peter Prevc and Severin Freund competed with each other for the world cup title :)
When you visit, you should also take a day to see Piran, it has a slight Venice vibe, very beautiful :)
Danke! 🇸🇮❤🇩🇪
Yeah its nice, but not that nice like Croatia 🤪
You're right, it's not as nice as Croatia, it's nicer.
I am from Bosnia, i am not Croat, but we all know that Croatia is most beautyful country from ExYu.
I always admired Slovenia for their wonderful landscapes and the slovenian people for being the most reasonable and basically just the coolest nation on the Balkans. (You have no idea how hard to write a comment like this without triggering other southern Slavs lmao)
I live in Hungary, super close to the slovenian border (like literally, it's not more than 20 minutes by car), I've been to Slovenia several times, mostly the Prekmurje part, but I've been to Maribor, Celje and Portoroz as well, and I loved it. Especially the beach at Portoroz. No wonder you guys deserve a lot more coastline haha
Love from Hungary to all Slovenians!
🇭🇺❤️🇸🇮
Yeah hungary is my second fav country and i live in Murska Sobota.
Thanks
Hungary has great landscapes with beautiful cities, especially along Danube
🇸🇮❤️🇭🇺
Thank u

@@kevinkeberzibert5148 I'm Slovene, but why doesn't Slovenia have approx. 2,292,023 people but instead approx. 2,078,724 people, Trieste belongs to Italy, stop trying to make illusions of Slovenia being bigger than it's actual size.
im from western austria (border of switzerland) but i saw alot of simmularities my grandparents also made schnaps haha
Really good rock band from Slovenia is Siddharta.
I live in the neighboring italian region of Friuli, near the so-called "Slavia Friulana" or "Beneška Slovenija", where Slovenian is one of the historical languages alongside with Friulian. I think any Friulan would agree that we are closely related in terms of culture and history and we often visit Slovenia (relatively cheap and absolutely gorgeous).
Yessss
Please could you explain me about furlan language. I was in Monte Lussari, once skiing and once to climb walking. In restaurant I`ve found menu writen in more languages. One was slovene and one was I think furlan. Some words are like mixing slovene and italian. Am I right? I know also Resia waley near to Monte Lussari. Citizens are mostly Slovenian. But they have numbers like celtic system with slovene names of digits. And system is more english than germen. You know twentyfour and not vireundzwanzig.
I am of Italian and Slovenian descent. Maybe that's why my parents get along so well.
Love Slovenia. best Oberkrainer music!!
Greetings from Austria🇦🇹❤️🇸🇮
Our friends and family 🇸🇮❤🇦🇹
Danke shön 🏔️🇸🇮🍻🇦🇹🏔️
You nailed it dude! Greetings from Piran, Slovenia
Its fun to watch this from Slovenia
Love Slovenia from Solomon Islands.
As an Austrian, I feel culturally more affiliated to Slovenia than Germany or Switzerland. Despite the common language, and entertainment market, we don’t have so many things in common with D and CH.
Slovenia has many caves and similar landscapes but sunnier, they love wine, they drink schnapps and keep bees, just like we do. Similar dishes. The accordion is so typical for both of our countries, and I think our mindsets must be alike too.
It's "nationalism" that made language the foundation of identity, when it's the least important. We share a thousand years of history, a common culture and blood. As far as I'm concerned, there is no border between Austria and Slovenia.
@Lydia Köffler Slovenes were loyal to Austria, even at the height of nationalism in the early 20th century. Carinthian Slovenes voted to stay in Austria rather than join the Pan-Slavic state of Yugoslovia and the rest of Slovenes would've voted the same given the chance. Slovene lands were Innerösterreich, after all.
@Lydia Köffler that's where you got it wrong my šnicel eating friend. We're not the same people because we are German, but because you are Windisch. In Carinthia most names of places have Windisch origins, you venerate Windisch Saints, you have Windisch last names and you have Windisch blood running through your veins. The very name of Kärnten comes from Karantanien, the Windisch state. So spare me your massive superiority complex, you're as much of a tschusch as we are.
@Lydia Köffler Wait, thats confusing. Who burnt down whose and who murdered who?
@Lydia Köffler Which ethnic Germans? Where did that happened? Which partisan movement? Have you ever asked, why did that happened? Are there any facts? And since you are stating these "facts", have you ever asked yourself, how many (innocent) people were killed, deported or assimilated by the other side? Nothing against anyone, but this story must not be seen just from one side.
0:44 France in Latin family: “Hm… maybe we should hang out some day, Slovenia.”
Very well done! Might be your best video so far, certainly Top 5 for me.
Is just a small thing of a million mistakes.
Much love to sLOVEnia from serbia 🇷🇸❤🇸🇮
1995 was the best year
@@0V3RDR1VE why
Slovenia was one of the best trips I've ever had! Skočjan caves were without doubt the most impressive natural sights I've seen in my life. The people in Ljubljana but also in the countryside were vibrant and nice and we had great food! 10/10 would recommend

Glad to hear you had a good time. 😊
Well done ... 👍 ... greetings from 🇸🇮
