- Greetings from Czech Republic! Village Life In Czech Republic
We spent a couple of days out in in the countryside of Czech Republic in a small little town/village called Nový Hrozenkov. We were so interested to see what village life was like out in the Czech countryside that we thought we would share what we found with you all!

That's interesting, thanks for letting us know 😄🙌🏼
Love every village of europe soo organized and peaceful
Villages really are favourite places to visit as well! It gives you the best insight into how the local people live and yes, they are so incredibly peaceful! 😍

Hello from southeast Texas , in 1890 early 1900’s more than one million Czech Moravia came to Texas. We eat poppyseed and other favor kolaches on weekly basic here in southeast Texas. We have two first class Czech Museums here in Houston and LaGrange, Tx. All my four grandparents came from Czechoslovak. Your video is very good and thank you for it. My parents started taking groups to Czechoslovak back in 1960’s and my Dad was in U S Army during WW 11 stationed in England next Czechs pilots as they fought for the West. Thanks .
The most Grounded Travel vlogs I've ever watched . The Narrators look Normal and not superficial. They're not onto doing something very dangerous and Exciting , they're just exploring the towns. I find this style of Exploration very peaceful. Personally speaking it gives me hope and confidence that an Introvert like me can in fact become one travel vlogger sometime in the future . (I suppose you two to be introverts btw)
Thank you so much! We take that as a big compliment 😄 In all honesty, anyone can be a travel vlogger. Since people are all so different, everyone enjoys different styles etc. That means there is room for all different personalities to be vloggers. You should definitely give it a try!
I'd say we were more introverted when we started but have become more extroverted and our confidence has grown since starting our channel. Starting this channel was one of the best decisions we ever made ☺💛

I have to say that those are great videos that really satisfy my hunger for videos of foreigners visiting our country hehe, there is just a few videos on the YT with such a quality where someone explores even the countryside and such places, tries food, and even shops for groceries, thats like a heaven for me :D
Wow! Thank you so much. What a compliment, we really appreciate it ☺️ SO happy that you enjoyed our video 😁

that area is more about hiking, mt biking, and just north, there are ski resort Synot.
I completely agree that they beautiful villages in Czech Republic and the food is so good. I been there and is my favorite country
Yes! We really enjoyed Czech Republic 😍🇨🇿
Hello, do you know the prices of country houses in Brno or on land in its suburbs? Thank you
Is there safe for international studentsss
The poppyseed kolache are my favorite sweet!!!
We also really enjoyed those 😋
5:55 Name of it is Valašský frgál. Or just frgál. Valašský means adjective from the area Valašsko.
Ooops. See, I don´t know the numbers, but most people everywhere here have some sort of gas based heating (or electricity-but it´s more expensive), central heating or boiler, wood is used rarely. Only as a cheaper or seasonal option, or in cottages meant for recreation only etc. As the main source of heating rarely.
That's so interesting! Thank you so much for taking the time to tell us about it 😄
Looks like the ideal little get-away-reconnect-with-nature-and-yourself type of destination ❤️🧘🏻♀️
Totally 😍 we wouldn't mind reconnecting with those blueberry dumplings as well 🤤
Oh, you might be interested. Toast bread was something that we didn´t have before 1989. It is something that spread here from the western countries.
That's so interesting, thanks for taking the time to tell is about that 😄
@@SarahandMarek corrupt PM sucked EU´sdotations for small companies into his giant holding, to innovate and built the toast bread machines. Making more expensive bread which requires a plastic bag, what an inovation.
Hello from Southeast Texas , in 1890’s and early 1900’s we had over one million Czechs settled in Texas. We have poppyseed and other favors Kolaches every week. You will visit Slovakia next country. We have two excellent Czech Museums in Houston and LaGrange, Tx. Love your videos . My parents starting taking groups to Czechoslovak back in1960’s till 2004. My father was stationed in Exeter, England during WW 11, next to Czechoslovak 310 squadron pilots and kept in touch after the war.
Thanks
Thank you so much sharing your story with us 😊
Lovely of those small villages where time seems to have stood still.
We totally agree! There is such a different feel to these villages and something quite special to experience. Do you enjoy heading out into the countryside of the countries you visit, Ferry? 😊
@@SarahandMarek
Yep. The countryside is a place that just begs to be explored. And there's nothing quite like waking up to the sound of chirping birds in the morning. 🐦
@@FerrySanders we couldn't agree more 😍

Cool video guys, great to see the 'normal' untouristy parts of a country. Bravo, with the food ordering. Brrr looks cold, enjoy.
Thanks so much Cindy! 😄 We loved seeing the less visited places in a country, how about you? Thank you! Lots of hand gestures helped with that too 😅 we are not happy about how cold it's been getting 😨 not ready for winter!

I've have been visiting the Czech Republic (Navsi/Jablonkov) and Poland with my wife (who's Czech) for the past 10 years. It's gotten to the point where I know where to go without a GPS and some people actually remember me. One thing about the restaurants I have visited. Most do have a english version of their menus (just ask and see), or it is incorporated into the existing menu. Without a doubt the food is excellent and depending on what you order, it could be in large portions. Overall good time everytime we visit! Always looking forward to the next visit!
Amazing 😃
I enjoy every video about our village, but this one was awesome! Wow! 😁👍 The Balaton is actually an old quarry, where was gravel sand mined. And yes, in this hot summer days I really enjoy that we have it. Many foreigners come here at summer especially from Slovakia, cause it is really near for them. And there is acutally another Jednota in this village 😁 A smaller one, but they have open almost everytime 👀 Which comes handy at weekends. Some people in comments already tell that there is also a museum (right next to the main Jednota), which is also a great tip for a tourist to look at. I’m happy that you enjoy our frgál (sweet pizza) ❤️😁
Yay! We are so happy to hear that 😁🙌🏼 Thanks so much for sharing this extra info, it will definitely be helpful to anyone else wanting to visit 😊
What a beautiful nature!!! Thank you for reflect this scenario
My Czech Grandmother here in Minnesota used to make poppy seed Kolach all of the time.
That is amazing! 😃 food really does have a way of transporting you to a different place 🤤 thank you so much for watching 🥳
in minnesota and iowa is a lot former czech ,, in mn is BEROUN ,, NEW PRAGUE etc. .. do you have OLD COUNTRY BUFFET still there?
@@petex3909 I live just north of New Prague. The last OCB in Burnsville closed in July 2020. I just read that the brand was bought last fall by the company that owns Famous Dave's BBQ as part of a larger deal. However, apparently, there are no plans to relaunch the OCB brand.
Absolutely fantastic filming. I so enjoyed the music and film synchronisation, to say nothing of the colours! What a lovely new camera, used to the best advantage. Thoroughly enjoyed comparing the food items. Thank you for a thoroughly entertaining video.
We are LOVING our new camera 😁 thank you so much!! 🤩
Yeah that cakes is traditional wedding cakes in Moravia. That one with rum was from Pear. Dryed pears then shreded and cooked. I liked this most.
That's so interesting! Thanks for telling us 😄 the pear one was my favourite too!
@@SarahandMarek The rum is there o conserve it a little.
Amazing village ❤
I can't believe youtube just randomly recommended me a video of two foreigners visiting a village that's like 20 minutes away from my home :D I know I'm 2 years late, but here's some fun facts from a local:
- Nový Hrozenkov is located in a region called Valašsko (Moravian Wallachia). Because it's located in Moravia (and Moravia has had beef with Bohemia for centuries), people here are very sensitive about being called Czech/Bohemian, because we are Moravians dammit! :D
- the "sweet pizza-like pastry" is called a "frgál" and it's not a traditional Czech pastry but a traditional pastry from the Valašsko region. The one that tasted like rum was probably made with pear jam (hrušková povidla). Other typical flavours are poppy seeds, plum jam or cottage cheese.
- Czechia doesn't really use all-purpose flour. Instead, we have 3 types divided by the coarseness. The one you showed in the video was the semi-coarse one, but to be fair this one is the most used type
- in the mountainous/foresty regions of the country, it is very common to have venison on the menu in the local restaurants. Especially during the hunting season in autumn/winter. Lots of fallow deer and boar meat everywhere. We even have a ball season at the beginning of the year commemorating the end of the hunting season. It usually has a raffle and you can win stuff from household appliances to a whole boar
This is so interesting, thank you for sharing! 😃 ah the joys of the CZcams algorithm 🤩
U are so happy in Czech Republic
Yes! We really enjoyed our time in Czech Republic 😄🙌🏼
We love poppy seeds
We've never seen so many poppy flavoured things before!? 😄🙌🏼
The water in the lake looks amazing!
It really did and it mad us really want to go for a swim but the cold weather had other plans 😆 thank you for watching 😁
Full list 57 million died including Aussies.
@@sayyamzahid505 ?
@@sayyamzahid505 all ok man?
They have a lovely little museum, was it closed when you were there. They also have a folk festival, which we saw last time we visited.
Photos of which you showed briefly. We are planning to spend Christmas in Novy Hrozenkov with our son and his family.
To be honest, we didn't even know there was a museum so we didn't look for it but that sounds really cool! The photos of the folk festival looked like such fun and I'm sure its a great experience! Hope you have a fantastic Christmas there with family! ☺
The food looked really good 😋 safe travels - Jay
Thanks so much! 😄 It was really good!
I love my village life
We agree 😁
Lovely place 🥰
It really was! We enjoyed our time in this sleepy little village ☺️
This is lovely
Thank you! 😄
So lovely place
We thought so too 😊 thank you for watching!
Wildboar in a local restaurant is pretty extraordinary...
...depends on the season.
Wow! the video quality in this video is so clear and good I can understand you were recording this by your new camera! :)
Great video! :)
Thank you so much! We are loving our new camera and we are so happy you can see the difference in quality 😁🙌🏼
Great video 👊🏼
Thanks so much Courts ☺️
4:30 that looks so gooood
Nice video and good vibes
Thanks so much! 😄🙌🏼
the "sweet pizza" is called a "frgál"
Thanks so much for telling us 😊 do you also enjoy it?
@@SarahandMarek yup, love it! :) .. if yours smelled like rum it might have been either a pear one or a plum (damsoncheese?) one I guess.. the plum one definitely has rum and cinnamon in it, but the topping would probably be darker
Wow so beautiful village sister 🙏❤️
Thank you! We thought so too ☺️
Love you guys
Thank you so much for being here ☺️ we love sharing our journey with you! 💛
Village dishes food and services must be 100 percent better than larger cities.
The food definitely tastes more homemade and the service is more personal so it's a richer cultural experience 😊 As tourists we felt a whole lot more appreciated going to a restaurant in this village than in restaurants in Prague ☺️
I think you are going to Slovakia. That food looks really yummy. Thank you for sharing your lovely and yummy videos.
Great guess! That is exactly where we are headed 😁 Thank you so much for coming along on our adventures 😊 The food was delicious 🤤
Nice video beautiful country I love this video
Thank you so much ☺️ we're so happy you enjoyed our video!
Food seems inexpensive but then again it all depends on where ones live. Just saw that you will be travelling to Slovakia…. Woohoo! I am too will be there in 6 days….. can’t wait to see your vid and the places you visited. And may be a chance to bump into you both :)
We were expecting it to be a bit cheaper but it was still reasonable 😊 That's SO exciting! I think we might just miss you 🙈 We aren't too certain of our plans yet. Either way it would be amazing to run into you 😁 Have an amazing time in Slovakia! 🇸🇰❤
So beautiful...im watching from philipines
Beautiful
Hi looks just like Poland. Did you know that poppyseed is very poular in Polish cuisine as well. Nice video. Thanks. Looking forward to your next country
I didn't actually know that, sho 🤔haha good guess ma, will just have to wait and see 🤭
XDD Not just in Poland, Czechs like the poppyseed as well, as we use it in baking and for some sweet foods as well. Though this is special kind of poppyseed, that is cultivar made for cooking with a extremely low alcaloid content. There are sometimes problems with some importers buying cheap farmaceutical grade poppyseed and selling it as poppyseed for food (which is of course forbidden).
Vrabec,zelí,knedlík 😋👍
kdyz si to cizinci prelozi , tak si i nekdo mysli ,ze dostane ptaka..))))
I really love Wallachia, I live in Prague, but I love going there for weekends and holidays... Moutains, sheeps, food and slivovice... Did u try it? Typical walachian spirit..
The countryside is just so beautiful 😍🇨🇿 we did try it! It was very strong 😅 but also quite nice!
Zdravíme z moravy
Full support here in Czech republic my dear friend
Thank you so much 😄🙌🏼
Wer are you in Czech republic my dear friend
Dam is man made, lake is natural. My guess is next to Slovakia. Cannot wait to see what you do there. I have been born to Prague and smaller town in of Fredyk-Mystek and to Slovakia. Czeck Republic was so much cheaper than Slovakia.
That makes so much sense! Thank you 😊 Great guess, that's exactly where we are headed 😁 That's lovely! We have really enjoyed our time in Czech Republic and we are excited to explore Slovakia to! 😁
Well basically in Czech language dam "přehrada" is artifical but with dam as a scructure where lake and dam are not small, there are only few of them. Otherwise if it's artificial it's lake "jezero". If it's natural and not big it's pond "rybník".
Máchovo jezero is pond, it's natural, but because it's bigger it got jezero in the name i think. So i remember this rules 'cause of it.
@@DaweSlayer It's not only about size, it has just some historical reasons, Máchovo Jezero probably lost it's original purpose long time ago, so people don't even realize it's actually pond, but rybník Rožmberk is still called rybník even when it's bigger than máchovo jezero, because everyone knows it's pond and it's still used for growing fishes.
Nice Video 👌✌️
Thank you 😊
Very nice 👌👌
Thank you so much 😄 have you visited the Czech Republic?
Those prices are very decent. Guess villages everywhere you go are affordable, except Switzerland I reckon lol
Hahaha well you are not wrong with that one 😆 thank you for watching! 😁
That is a lake. A dam has walls.
Hi i am from bangladesh.. I see your czech republic country side video it was good scenario.. And you both is really beautifull...
Thank you so much 😁 we hope to visit Bangladesh someday 🙌🏼

Thank you ☺️
6:15 poppy seed are opium charged... They give you strength.
😆😆😆
There is more then Balaton. I was born in Nový Hrozenkov. Try visit again but maybe chose better time of year.
A dam is used to stop water flowing, whereas a lake... doesn't? This place looks so cute! I think your next country will be Austria or Slovakia...?
Thanks for that! It really makes a lot of sense 😄 It was such a cute little village! Great guess 😁 we're headed to Slovakia 🇸🇰
A dam is man-made. A lake is natural. (Most of the time, anyway. 🙂)
Lakes can be natural or created by a dam. If they are dammed, they are often called reservoirs and were just streams before the dam.
Czechia!
👍👍👍
😄🙌🏼
It is artificial lake made for recreational purposes.
Thanks so much for letting us know 😊
We who play geocaching don't need Tripadvisor. There is always so much to do nearly everywhere. :-)
We have to agree with you 😄🙌🏼 there really is so much to do around this region, you just need to know how to find them 😁

Amazing! Thank you so much for the assistance Kahy 😁
Those are not just "kolač"s, those are "frgál"s. Remember: here beer is cheaper than water 😂
Hey, was wondering where you were staying as it was for free! Was it work experience again? Or friends? You didn't say...? X
We stayed with family friends and we really enjoyed our time there 😊

Guys.... How GOOD ARE THE BLUEBERRY DUMPLINGS 🥟

If you ever visit mountains, buy a food made from blueberries. We czechs are the only nation with sweet main dishes. Goes incredibly well with our bitter beer. No, it is not kid only.
Hello from India
Hi! 😄👋🏼 We would love to visit India!
you guys should give the game DayZ a go if you havent already. it is a very brutal open world survival based in czech (povrly region) with a very detailed recreation of the actual place.
nice video too :)
Wow! I've never heard of this game before and in all honesty neither of us are really gamers but it sounds interesting 🙌🏼 thanks for telling us about it :)
@@SarahandMarek its quite the work of art if i'm honest. if you do check it out, the location in the game is called chernarus. there are plenty of videos where people show side-by-side comparisons of the game with the real places :).

Hi Reji 😄 This food was delicious! We are hoping to visit Indonesia next year sometime 😁
Eh ada orang Indonesia juga

Mam any job opportunities available there
Do you guys speak czech? do u have to know the language to be able to go?
Hey there! We do not speak the language but managed to get by. It was rather tricky going to the restaurant and grocery store because there is not much English spoken but with Google translate we managed to get by and order and purchase the food that we were looking for. So in summary, no you do not need to know the language but having a basic understanding of a few phrases will go a long way :)
Nooooo. I am not first this week. Next time...
There's always next time 😉 we appreciate you being here nonetheless ☺️
I want help finding a job

Great guess! That is exactly where we headed next 😄🙌🏼
Ah, You must be going to Slovakia now, as your right next to the border..

Koláč or Frgál is not Czech but Moravian
Was that the pastry we ate near the end of the video? That's so interesting, we had no idea
@@SarahandMarek Yes, "Valašký frgál" is local trademark for big sweetcakes of "pizza size" some come with quark, pear or plum "marmelade", or the poppyseeds.
Moravia is a part of Czechia,.
Шалом !
Yo hold up! Hey! Alright čeština
Czechia is the largest producer (35% of world production) and one of the largest consumers (10% of world consumption) of poppy seeds.
Its all so incredibly interesting! 😯 thank you for giving us a few more stats, i (Marek) love numbers so your comment really added a lot more value for me of the entire poppy seed world 😁🥳
