This is a very small mall and does not look like a mall at all. You should visit City Park Mall. Much bigger that one. Regarding the opinion of our country mans from other parts of Romania, they have seen Constanta maybe few years ago. Now Constanta is under continuous development, major European financed projects in infrastructure, parks, and entertainment like extension and modernisation of Dolphinarium and a new Aquarium. I am confident that in about 5 years it will be a real touristic destination similar to those from Mediteranean coast. You should go visit the resort of Constanta called Mamaia and take the sky gondola for nice sightseeing of the beach and resort. Also for most of highlights you can take the City Tour Bus.

Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities.

Norwegians dont use honorifics like sir or ma’am. Not even a desrved one like «doctor». The T/V-distinction was done away with in the 70s. All people, even the prime minister is refered to by first or last name. The only people excempt from this are members of the Royal Family who are adressed as Majesty or Royal Highness. When speaking to them directly one speaks to them in the third person. «What dose The King think about that?», «What dose The Crown Princess believe?»

6:49 The sound you used for the "o" in Honningsvåg is pretty close to the sound of the letter "ø" in for instance Vardø. 7:15 You got the "o" right on the second try, I believe, although definitely not the "å". Æ, Ø and Å are separate letters in Norwegian, not variations on other letters. 9:22 "Town"? By Norwegian standards its actually a city, the 16th biggest in the country, equivalent to something like Indianapolis in the US. Applying for a city status in Norway only requires a population of about 5 000 people, and we have older cities that's smaller but that has retained their city status for historical reasons. I get that it's all very small for you guys given that New York alone has a bigger population then the whole of Norway. 12:49 Nice work! You got the "Å" in "Ålesund pretty much right. 😊

@Luredreier Ай бұрын
11:27 I appreciate that you pronounced the "e" at the end, it's a common mistake English speakers make to ignore those sounds, and it's *really* driving me nuts when they do as treating the "e" at the end of words as silent is not really done in other Germanic languages other then English. If you want to improve your pronounciation the "e" sound you made is represented by "i" in Norwegian however and the "u" in Norwegian is a far sharper sound where the tongue essentially forms the letter, while the sound you made for it is represented by the letter "o" in Norwegian. Mind you, this is nitpicking, and I think most Norwegians would be able to guess what you meant. "Multe" is the Norwegian word for cloudberries. They're really hard to store or transport without damaging them and can't be grown commercially. So you pretty much can only taste them in the Nordic region and elsewhere where they grow (like in Canada)

Hi Jay, Greeting from Sydney, Australia. Like you I am passionate about traveling in my retirement. I have Viking ancestry also!. Your vlogs are of great relevance to my spouse and I, including travel budgeting. My question is about how to fund retirement travel: do you use your financial investment returns / pension income, or capital drawdowns, or a combination of both, to fund you trips? Keep up the good work on how to enjoy retirement! Best regards, Jay

Hi Jay, Thank you for your comment. We fund our retirement travel through a combination of pension income and overall portfolio drawdown. We've always kept close track of our expenses, including travel, so it's an ongoing process of determining how much we can comfortably spend each year and on each trip. We know some trips will be more expensive than others and by recognizing this and budgeting accordingly it takes a lot of stress out of the equation. Thanks for watching and keep on traveling.

Jay, did not see a lot of scenery shots from the ship up the fjords. Lots of stops in little towns I get it, but is there much in the way of scenic touring up the fjords to the towns inland? I think I would enjoy Hurtigruten fine, not sure my wife would be so happy with the accommodations - particularly small bed and fighting over covers. We are used to balcony cabins on Princess as Elite Members...though I am done with the need for the specialty restaurants and many of the shows. What can you tell me about the scenic journey portion of this trip? I have done Alaska and the New Zealand Fjords and really have a bucket list desire for the Norwegian Fjords, but not sure this is the ticket I am looking for, even in a more temperate time of year. Any advice?
@JayandTanyaTravel
@JayandTanyaTravel 2 ай бұрын
Hi Paul. Thanks for your comment. Sorry I didn't cover more of the scenery. Yes, there are scenic fjords to be seen on the Hurtigruten voyage, it's just that the fjords seem to be the focus more on other mainstream cruise lines and I was just excited about seeing all the little towns along the way on the coastal express. Since you want to concentrate on Norwegian Fjords, I think you and your wife might be happier on one of the other cruise lines. Hurtigruten offers a good product but I would consider it a 3-star experience as opposed to the 4-star or 5-star experience of Princess, Celebrity, HAL etc. There's also another program called "Norway in a Nutshell" that includes fjord cruising as well as a trip on the Flam Railway that might interest you. Happy traveling!
