Your english accent is more indian now! I've seen your videos for years and I just came to this realization. You make me love india more and more every time!
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial Nice seeing that you are having a nice time in Bangalore despite the lockdown. Bangalore has one of best climate among top tier cities in India Your vlog is very refreshing . I am from Bangalore too BTW
when you'll be 70 year old, write a book about all those small experiences & learnings in your whole life. you are smart + you have amazing ability to express complex thoughts with ease.
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial True Ivana.. Please start jotting down for your book.. Don't wait to become old. You have more experiences than many of us..I too wanted to tell you to write a book. A wise decision 👍
The amount of ginger you put in the Chai ( 9:01) is what I use in a month . Buy a (Ginger Shaver) , a good one is under 30 rupees. You can shave the ginger according to your need and moreover it increasing the gingery flavour. Love from Thane, Maharashtra. Traditional ginger shaver is like a flat metal with several sharp holes , and that is fixed with a handle. Its very useful. I would recommend to buy in a local market. If you order online it may cost you 100 rupees or more.
5:00 hi hello. Hey try Ru-Afza. That is amazing. It is the best drink during Summers especially in North India. One can put Ru-Afza in Lassi or can make a shrabat and put Ru-Afza in it or make a Ru-Afza drink by putting Ru-Afza in cold water and add some sugar. And the History of Ru-Afza is also great.
My favourite chai is ginger lemon grass & mint. Freshly Grate ginger ( that way you need only about 1/3rd of what you use) chopped up lemon grass & mint (leaves only) into water bring to boil; boil for 2-3 min add milk, bring to boil turn off add tea leaves cover for 3-5 min. Serve & enjoy. If you take sugar add at beginning. Water / milk proportion as per your taste
12:36 I prefer it on couch or bed or on Khaat/Manjja out in open 😁. We put the dinning table in the corner 😄 But you should always place newspaper and then put your plate on it on the couch because anything can happen
When I used to stay in Bangalore I used to daily order food from swiggy, zomato or Uber eats. Always wondered isn't outside food unhealthy and costly too eat even though it tastes very good. I mean it's like literally going to the restaurant everyday. I'm not sure if people used to do that back when we all were growing up. But it's a reality in Bangalore. Ever since the pandemic started I tried making variety of drinks and dishes like Solkadi (Classical western ghats drink), Sweet & sour Gujarati dal, vada pav, misal pav, Carolina reaper based momos, raemen etc.
I guess you finally started loving why India loves the rains. Its not only a lifeline for Mother Earth but for all creatures living in this subcontinent as well. 😁😁
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial good for you.. keep up the good work... and yes.. high time for you to complete what is remaing in your life.. success will alwayz be on your side as you really have a good heart.
10:30 I had to stop drinking tea, coffee, pepsi, coke 4 years back. It was tough but I did stop drinking them. Now only once in 2 or 3 months I drink tea with little extra milk. I also like cream milk tea, masala tea, ginger tea, Gurr (better substitute for sugar) tea, oh oh oh I love Bun-makhan-tea. 😔 I miss tea.
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial Doctor say in "few years" I can start drinking tea regularly. And doctor is saying this for last 2 year. Idk when will those "few years" end.
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial Do you own two wheeler. If you are going to live in India for long I suggest you should buy a scooter. An electric scooter is best. You are living in Bangalore where Ather company started. Ather electric scooters are awesome.
Yours is such a charming personality,it shows through out the video. Myself and my wife love your style of presenting yourself so gracefully. I think we love you because you love India and its culture. God bless you.
I can see you teaching in School or College. Maybe you can teach in summer camps, summer programs or online or part time at a school or college for a particular course.
Ma'am I appreciate you alot bcoz you stayed in india with us when whole country is struggles with this pandemic I know you believe that India is your second Home...and you really mean that...it's so nice to see you happy and relax.... take care 🙏 be happy 😁😷🙏🇳🇱🇮🇳
In bengaluru you can almost experience all the weather conditions . You don't need to go to other states to experience different weather. Rainy, sunny, cloudy etc Bengaluru's weather is almost unpredictable But it's fantastic
Amazing editing Ivana. That scribbling effect and music is so cool. Wish you a happy day ahead. Monsoon is coming and hope you have some amazing vlog ideas in mind and I am waiting to watch it.
Q: What is Turkish Delight? Ivana in 1993: Ruže Ratluk Ivana in 2010: 1973 Dutch Film Ivana in 2021: I only know of Indian delight which is Paneer Lababdar.
Great video. Yes indeed please share and make more videos like these. Cause honestly it gives people inspiration and ideas on what to do when you are home doing the same thing. It's always great to see how other people around the world is living. Thank you for sharing your stories and inspiring.
I love your videos.. Feels like staying and living with a friend during these times.. However a suggestion with care.. The mug you have chai seems to be shedding off a lot of paint on every sip without your knowledge..
Your appartment is awesome. It's big and specious . A specious appartment is important if you live in a place for a long time or life time don't you think ?
Hee Ivana! Ik keek al je video's toen je net begon, eerlijk gezegd de laatste tijd niet meer. Life got in the way. Vannacht droomde ik dat ik je tegen kwam en dat je een maand of 7 zwanger was. Het was zo bizar🤣 geen idee waar het vandaan kwam. We zaten ook in een soort geheime gemeenschap namelijk. Dus ik wilde even komen kijken hoe het met je gaat haha still loving all the foods😍
I bought dried ginger and cardamom. Coarse grinded them together and mixed them with a regular red label tea. And boom, now I always have a readymade ginger cardamom tea handy.
Your Enjoying the Lockdown time in Bangalore no doubt looking at your wonderful video. I'm from Bangalore and Can Say that we all are gonna get back to those regular days very soon.Till then Take Care and Stay Safe 😊
Majjige means butter milk in kannada. Majjiga ('ga') is Telugu. Try curd curry with masala vada. Its rare as madur vada is more famous in KA. But rice with curdcurry, masala vada & green peas fry is just mouthwateringly AWESOME 😍enjoy Ivana :)
I am watching your videos back to back. I had to come back to my home town Kolkata from Bangalore on emergency basis. Both of my parents tested Covid positive and my father was admitted to Hospital for 11 day's. Most painful time of a person's life. Your videos are working like therapy for me. Since 2018, you never ever disappointed us. Top notch content, excellent edit and your presentation- it's pure bliss. Thank you so much Iv, you are awesome ❤️🙏
Woah high praise! I'm so sorry to hear about your parents. Hope they're both feeling a lot better and you guys get more peace in these crazy times. Thank you so much for your kind words!
My favourite thing to relax in the evenings is listening to western classical music with my headphones. I am listening to compositions which are new to me, having all this time.
My favourite survival movies are (1) the Grey (2) into the wild ; and (3) 127 hours (4) Everst and (5) Alpha. I hope you enjoy them. Stay safe. Good work on spreading positive vibes.🤘✌️👍
You are becoming more Indian than an Indian by birth enjoying Parle G😊. That’s my kind of day too. Btw you can do away with chunks of ginger, it was way too much ginger, a little crushed or grated ginger goes a long way. I love ginger and powdered cardamom in my tea. Love your channel.
Ivana hi.. I had to share with you.... That while making chai.. To get the best taste and health benefits of ginger you can crush it and then put it in water as those cut pieces of ginger still retain the lot of benefits and flavor which could not be used completely, and crushing exposes it in hot water from inside out further making your chai tasty and more healthy.
Hi Ivana, Amazing video, very relaxing ! Well, I just remembered some history..... so I checked.... Did you know the Dutch came to Indian subcontinent as early as the British (early 1600s)? They traded in silk, indigo, spices, textiles (all scarce in Europe at that time!) but it did not survive for very long and they went away to Malaysia & Indonesia. However, there was some inter-cultural influence.... The famous Rembrandt was inspired by Indian Art.... Is it possible that there was some influence in other areas too... For example, food (Paddu=Poffertjes!?), music, dress, language,... too?
Hii, Ivana i just watched few of your blogs in India.... I like, that you love India so much and chose here to live.... you had travelled many places in India, but Once you come to 'ODISHA' State in northeastern part of India, you'll love it's natural beauty, Pilgrimage sites, beach festival and sacred "Rath yatra" festival of lord 🙏 'Jagannath' in puri... That is celebrated between June or July.... must come ❤️ with your Father...may you get more n more love in India ❤️.
I have had an ironical relationship with your channel I started following you years back when i was living in bangalore, and it was your first or second visit to India, a little hazzy on the exact timeline. You had just discovered paneer and get crazy! The famous "nom nom nom nom" 😂, started following your vlogs to get a foreign perspective on my country , and now you are living in Bangalore, and I moved to a europe and planning to visit Netherlands soon once the restrictions are done and explore the country. You are like a long distance friend who I have never spoken too. Also, it's been good to see you evolve as a vlogger, the editing, the whole flow of things has really matured. Wish you the very best Ivana, keep up the good work! Hello from Dublin! Cheers 🍻
I think its the best time to read "what got you..." for any entrepreneur or an artist. This pandemic is an opportunity to pause, process and pivot for a better business. Gives an insight about how you always want to or are thinking of bringing a different thought to your daily process. Good luck.
Hoi ,ik volg je al heel lang en nu zie ik dat je echt veel volgers hebt,dat snap ik 💗 wij hebben ook plannen om in de toekomst naar India te komen. Succes met alles
