Dubrovnik, Croatia!

[@spellmyname182]

You two are what tourists everywhere should be. Thank you for always being so kind and respectful with your thoughts and opinions, even when they're not exactly positive. I can't even begin to tell you how much I've enjoyed this series, it's helped me through some pretty shitty days. And as a Croat, I can assure you that we loved you guys just as much as you loved us. Stay awesome :)

[@kydeanderic]

Thanks so much for such kind words! Glad we could help you with some rough times. -E

That little fruit thing is a loquat. Starfruit and grape is a great description for it. I'm pretty sure they are available in Japan. Really enjoyed watching this trip. I knew absolutely nothing about Croatia before and now I want to go!

[@plejade4125]

Whuoo thank you soo SO much for naming that fruit, had these on Crete, from a backyard of a family house they offered us some after hiking while we stopped by. But I forgot the name and it was tricky to find the name, but now I know😍😍😍 Have to thank all af you, for tasring and showing us, and you @WeirdExplorer now I can search for them and taste them again, wuhuuu ^^/

[@WeirdExplorer]

No problem! they sometimes show up at Asian supermarkets. They are also used as an ornamental tree in some parts of the world as well. Good luck.

[@Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaartin]

Funny to see you here, I really like this and your channel as you explore the world. I immediately thought of you when I saw the fruit, like that ain't a plum. Would be amazing to see you do some weird explorer videos in Europe, places like Georgia is teeming with fruits.

[@silvijab2016]

Just wanted to thank you for the way you did this series. I do not mind people breezing through the land, and not getting to know her (it's a she), but I hate it when they do not make the effort to know her before presenting her to the world. And that is what so many people do. Breeze through the point of the tip of the iceberg, and then slam a title "All you need to know about Croatia" or something. You didn't do that. You made the effort of understanding the land, so this series really is about Croatia.

[@kydeanderic]

Thank you! We try our best to dig in deep whenever we can, and I'd never be so pompous to call a video "All you need to know" about anything, ever. If we don't get a chance to dig in deep on a place we make a video, we are sure to say that so our viewers understand our perspective. Glad you enjoyed the series! -E

[@jackjones1727]

Suppose no land could be summarized quickly, but in particular, from the plains of Slavonija, castles of Zagorija, to the lipi zale of the coast, the perfect blend of history, culture, food, and music differ so much from one end of Croatia to the other. One really must take the time as in these videos to experience all of it. I'm only Croatian by marriage and I love this beautiful nation of proud, peaceful people. Thanks for doing these videos. Hvala ljepa prijeteli.

[@jackjones1727]

Cannot agree more; Hrvatska is a rich, historical land i adore and love.

[@domagojbatinic1526]

about dumplings with plums (knedle), you should also use sour cream and cinnamon on them after slicing them apart. bread crumbs you toast first in a pan on oil and then put dumplings in them after cooking them in water. home made dumplings with plums usually are made with fresh plums, store bought dumplings are made with plum jam

[@domagojbatinic1526]

@keefie80 dough for dumplings is a standard potatoe dough like for gnocchi

I'm sad to see that this is the last video of Croatia because this was my favourite travel vlog about my homeland. I'm also sad that you weren't able to experience the real Croatian cuisine because there is a lot of it around.

Hi guys, thanks for another great video. I am a Dubrovnik resident and I can confirm everything you said about this town. I think that Game of Thrones hipe is the worst thing that could have happened to the city. So many shallow tourist that doesn't even want(or doesn't have time ) to scratch the surface of the place they visit. So according to that everything is adjusted for fast buck(restaurants food included ). Sad. You should have seen it before this GoT hipe, you would have loved it. By the way if you ever come across this place again I will make a reeeeeeal okruglice for you 😌. Best of luck, you are awesome.

Yeah... too touristy. If there weren't that many tourists, it would be amazing. As the city has history, importance and charm, but all is lost cuz of that feeling of "Disneyland" like Eric said.

[@AirWolf2301]

That's why it's smart to rent a place 20-30km from the town and a car to go there once or twice or just go in the Winter. Since I'm from Croatia I honestly don't see the point in going to Dubrovnik in summer. Its just pure madness then.

Pro tip for driving long tight distances in reverse:: Don't turn your head or body, just use your mirrors. To make sure they're set correctly, use the lines in the road or parking lot when stationary and centered. Used to back up box trucks and roofing trucks with trailer in the city northeastern US.

We usually call those 'Okruglice' knedle and we basically never buy them from the store. We pick plums from the trees, make the dough ourselves and cook, roll it in the breadcrumbs pour sugar over it and it's delicious, it's definitely not reccommended to buy the ones premade it doesn't taste nothing like when you make it yourself. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knedle Also another lovely video, I like your unique style of filming and the way you portray and explain the scenes.

I think the flower at 6:07 is the "Passion flower" (Passiflora). The dish you prepared "Okruglice" ("Rounds" in English) is my favorite. My mom used fresh Stanley plums inside them. If you are making this from scratch use recipe for "Gnocchi". Same type of dough works fine.

I've loved your Croatia vlogs. I've never thought of travelling there before, but it does look rather interesting especially from the war point of view as I am in to historical stuff like that.

[@etherdog]

I was there in 1990, before the war, and the old city within the walls was a very sleepy village with very few tourists and I did not encounter any Americans (north or south), but a lot of Germans. I particularly remember how slick the marble pavement was. Hard to think that was 30 years ago--seemed so recent.

[@Kivas_Fajo]

By breadcrums with sugar they meant: Take a frying pan, melt some butter and don't let it burn, put in the breadcrums until all the butter is soaked up, but it's still a bit moist. Add some sugar to make it sweet and a pinch of salt to balance that sweetness. Pour these breadcrums over the dumplings or better-put the boiled dumplings directly into the pan and roll them through the breadcrums mass. It will stick to it. This way it is delicious. The way you did it looks horrific. ^^

Been Really looking forward to this one. Like Kyde, I also Loved GOT, so I would love to visit Dubrovnik also to see where stuff was filmed, but besides that even if GOT production never came to Croatia, this city would probably Still be High on my Croatia list just due to how COOL of an ancient, walled city it is. Kinda disappointing to hear just HOW over-touristed it is, but oh well, that's the nature of travel and tourism nowadays I think. And to think that you guys weren't even there in the summer during the height of European tourism 0_o But anyways, some points: - Dang that flower was Wild - That cake looked yummy - LOL another "5 or 10 minuets" situation X'D X'D - Wow, those narrow little roads are CRAZY. A little bummed we didn't get to see the view from the top of the mountain, but I guess that's just one more reason to visit it for myself one day! Lol :)) - Wow, what a Cool wall. WHAT IS IT WITH CITY WALLS??? Lol just the idea of them is So Cool. - I personally would say that that fee is worth being able to walk the wall and going in the fort. It seems like just the wall itself would be a Multiple hour thing, you could proably even make it a half a day thing if you took it slow and wanted to stop and look at everything, so $25 for a 1/2 day excursion I think is reasonable, Especially given just how COOL that wall is * _ * :)) - "Tastes like a tea bag" X'D Another great addition to #KydeSaysTheDarndestThings ;) =P - Just looking at the wall from that window at the fort Blows My Mind. No Offense Eric, I wasn't paying full attention to what you were saying on the history and had to go back, because all I could think just looking at the city and the wall is: ......that's real...People BUILT that....Humans Are Amazing......LOL - "Dragon tits" X'D X'D X'D X'D - Omg...those little packets of alcohol are AMAZING XD Really enjoyed watching your guys' travels throughout Croatia.

Even though, its mostly made by leftover mashed-potato from lunch, day earlier ahahh I lived in Dubrovnik for 2 years, and you are absolutely right, its way too much oriented towards turism, there is not much going for locals at all anywhere in the city.

It is funny Dubrovnik reminds you the most of Italy although it is the only bigger town in Dalmatina that was never under Italian occupation and influence. It was independant Republic untill Napoleon came and it was the biggest threat to Venetians on Adriatic.

[@kydeanderic]

To be fair, to our unexperienced eye the region in general is all very similar. Not that it's a bad thing, we just don't know the little differences to look for. -E

[@Caleidus]

Sir Arthur Evans "Through Bosnia and the Herzegovina on Foot During the Insurrection, 1877" It is to the Latins of Dalmatia that we must look for evidences of culture and intellectual progress, and not to the Slavs. ... Ragusa, the Dalmatian Athens, has sometimes been held up as an example of Slavonic culture, but this is only partially the case, for the history of Ragusa is uniformly that of a Latin rather than a Slavonic city. The public acts were recorded either in Latin or Italian, never in Illyric, except in case of correspondence with a Slavonic power; Italian appears as the language of the records and laws as early as the fourteenth century; the pleadings in the law-courts in the fifteenth century were not in Illyric but in a Rouman or debased Latin dialect; the rules of the lay confraternities of goldsmiths carpenters and other trades are drawn up in Italian at least as far back as the year 1306, an incontestable proof that Italian was then the vernacular language of the working classes; and when, in 1435, the little republic set an example which many greater states might worthily have imitated, and instituted public schools, it was from Italy that she invited her professors. T. G. Jackson "Dalmatia, the Quarnero and Istria, 1887" “The old Latin or Roman population of the cities was not however crushed out of existence by these calamities. ...the fugitives from Epidaurus settled on an isolated rock not far from their ancient home, where they founded the city of Ragusa... From this time forward Dalmatia presents the spectacle of two distinct peoples living side by side, of different race, language, customs, and aspirations, and to a certain extent with different religious proclivities. In the towns of Zara, Traù, Spalato, Ragusa, and Cattaro on the mainland, and those of Arbe, Veglia, and Ossero on the islands, were the Romans, or as they came to be called Dalmatians, in contra-distinction to the Croats or Serbs, speaking their ancient tongue, governing themselves by their old Roman law, electing their own magistrates and bishops, and preserving the traditions of the municipalities of the empire

Useful -- most reviews are more like ads where the presenters all sound like "just steps from your hotel are quaint shops worth a selfie." BTW, I think it's pronounced "oak-roo-gleetz-uh".

Haha. It says "Penis bonus pax in domus" in Latin on the plaque by the peeing lady. It's at 43:07. It means that if a man is kind towards his beloved, she will be kind to him, too. Well, that's my interpretation. Google it. :)

[@kydeanderic]

Noted! Will be kind to Kyde! -E

Pevis benis?! (90s joke alert)

[@hubertvancalenbergh9022]

A more literal translation would be: "A good penis (equals) peace in the household."

[@Molekulasti]

@Eric - I practice it towards my better half. It pays off. She's Swedish, I'm Croatian and I get to eat Croatian food daily. :) @Ann other - Indeed. @Hubert Van Calenbergh - I know. That's why I've added "Google it" part.

My boyfriend and I will be in Athens this weekend and would love to meet you!

[@kydeanderic]

Sorry for the confusion, these are filmed in advance, we'd already been to and left Athens! Enjoy your visit, make sure to hunt out some good local food, it's amazing there! -E

im guessing here, but proppably boil for 12 minutes and then you could fry it in butter and use the butter and finely grained bread crumb to make a rue to pour over it. I mean its a fruit dumpling... what else can you do.

[@delukxy]

I like experimenting and as I watched I thought that after boiling if you melted the sugar into a sauce and then added the bread crumbs you could pour that over the dumplings. I would then put them in a very hot oven for a few minutes to give them a crispy crust. Serve with thick cream maybe?

17:05 persimmon?

[@travelswithblindcane]

Fun fact: I have a pair of Docs that look exactly the same as the footwear the creepy ice cream thing at 2:50 is sporting. Not sure how I feel about this honestly.

Hahaha

Hi there! I am a Croatian who grew up and currently still lives in the States and am enjoying your videos. It's interesting to see your perceptions. The dessert name on the package translates to "little rounds" ("okruglo" means round, and the "-ice" ending on the name makes the word in the diminutive -- so "little rounds"), but they are typically known in Croatia by their German name from Croatia's Austro-Hungarian days and influence as "Zwetschgenknoedel". Typically, we would sauté the breadcrumbs in butter in a skillet until golden brown and then roll the boiled dumplings in the skillet to pick up the breadcrumb sauce. Also, good to serve with vanilla sauce or vanilla ice cream. Delicious when prepared the right way! See here: www.theomaway.com/desserts/german-plum-potato-dumplings-recipe/

[@kydeanderic]

We hope to try them sometime prepared properly! Haha. -E
