  • It's November 2016 and Rob takes a weekend trip away from the forest garden to the Trenčín area of Slovakia to revisit some of his old haunts and confuse many a barista with his odd version of Slovak.

    Aww 🥰 what a charming and naive footage. Really enjoyed watching it. And yes, you should definitely revisit beautiful Slovakia, perhaps my birth town Skalica. And I also recommend few hikes in the formidable High Tatras. It’s a place of my annual pilgrimage. Your language skills are pretty impressive also ♥️🇸🇰

    That was an interesting video Rob. Slovakia looks like a lovely old place. Interesting architecture and great soil for farming. I bet the coffee was the best.☕

    It looks so cozy and beautiful there, like the inside of a snowglobe! I would love to visit there sometime 😊 I also loved the framed picture of the sheep in the cafe 5:08 🐑 💖

      Yes! You get it! Just like the inside of a snow globe 🌨☃️☺️ Give me a call sometime and I'll tell you all about my adventures 📞🤗 You'd love it there. Especially all the traditional crafts that are still practiced. Some places there are similar to where you are! Very different, but similar 😆

    Do you speak Slovak? :)

    • @robsdiscovery
      @robsdiscovery  Před 6 měsíci +2

      I used to speak it pretty well when I lived there back in 2009-2011. Not so much nowadays unfortunately, but I'd love to learn it again 😌

    • @aleksandraszalwinska8214
      @aleksandraszalwinska8214 Před 6 měsíci +1

      Interesting! :) Can I ask, why did you live there? I’m from PL, but have many Slovak friends and have been to Slovakia this summer (Tatranska Lomnica). Very nice place :)
