More pop up shops like jumble sales we had as kids 😁 The young leave for more opportunities in the cities. Shame the small villages lose them but it’s not surprising as they are more exciting & have much more to offer
What a legend that old barrel maker. Sad that all the villages are losing their population. I wonder if it might change with more and more remote working.
It is sad yeah Tim hopefully young people move back again, surely people working online will end up doing I hope, these are some of the most beautiful places out there
Market place is Trg ,Trgoviste or Trgovski in Macedonia, we also use the word Market :) .Mesara is Meat shop .The coffee is Macedonian, and you have Lokum with coffee ceremony.You drink coffee on the balcony with lokum glass of cold water.You slurp slowly bit by bit. Theres fortune tell ceremony after you finish coffee. You turn the little cups upside down after you finish slurping and wait for 30 mins coffee tag to turn in to shapes.You can press with your fingers on it and make three wishes. And remember its Macedonian coffee jot turkish.Turkish drink tea not coffee.And turkey is made only in 1923 .We have this coffee from Africa long long time before .Lokum is also Macedonian not turkish.

Turkish delight is called lokum in Turkish and it was invented in Turkey by Hacı Bekir by the end of 18th century.( His shop is still open) It is traditionally served with Turkish coffee.. Under the Ottoman rule for hundreds of centuries it is normal for Macedonians( as well as Greeks and many Balkan Countries) to be influenced by Turkish Cuisine and make this Turkish dessert. And Turkish Coffee also.
@@EllisWR What is that? In Greece we call them Vlachs. In Greece, Albania, North Macedonia. I know for sure that dancing/cultural Vlach groups from Greece visit fellow Vlachs in Krusevo, North Macedonia and they are very wellcomed.
Yes! One of them! In Crusova were born that great aromanian hero Pitu Guli, the hero (captain of armatols) Gheorghe Mucitani, Nicolae Constantin Batzaria former member of turkish parliament and minister under the Young Turks regime and than member in the Romanian parliament, academician Stefan Stoica Nicolaescu, Take Fiti - former minister of Macedona. Roots from Crusova had Ioachim III, former patriarch of Constantinople and Ianis Butaris, last mayer of Salonic. In Crusova lived Tose Proeski, one of the most beloved singer of Macedonia. And others...
The name is NORTH Macedonia. What's with encouraging extreme nationalists in Skopje to violate Prespa agreement by calling it "Macedonia? Are you racist towards Greeks?
@@EllisWR I guess the answer is yes. You are racist towards Greeks. Why do you want to commit genocide against the Greek people? Or are you Going to pretend you don't notice their bizarre attempts to steel Greek history and erase the Greek people too Nazi-boy?
