    I am Welsh, married to a Slovak and live in Slovakia and we have a massive mint where I am from in Wales that makes a lot of the money around the world. Between that, the castles and the pride in the nature and mountains found in both countries and the way we are both overlooked in favour of our louder, more well-known neighbours I totally have found my spirit-home in my adopted nation. Now I just need to get fluent in Slovak (getting there) and learn Welsh (hmmmmmmm - a plan for my old age) and I'll be the perfect Welsh-Slovak! This video was great but didn't mention the lakes, spas, and love of wellness here enough.

      Aa far as i remember it's because the track has been historicaly used for lumber and leads through mountains and the area it goes through happens to be the only place around big and flat enough to host a sorcer field. So it was probably more like track first, field second, then they needed a place for tribune but the other side of the field goes downhill so screw it, let's build it at the other side of the track
