    Crazy Slovakia

    September 10, 2020 in Slovakia ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    1. Slovakians are crazy (mostly in a very charming way)
    2. You do not want to be a Slovakian woman on Easter monday (you will literally be whipped and splashed with ice, cold water)

    4. Hiking is a Slovakian national sport
