You can probably cover off the main sights of Bratislava in a single day -- plus it’s just a short train ride away from Vienna. Did we make a huge mistake by booking an entire month?

Hey, the ad that came up after this video, in my part of the world, was for technical education in Tasmania (TAFE) where my nephew Damian works. Cute.

That's some very targeted marketing! 😂

@lindadorman2869 Год назад

I think staying a month in a less expensive city is a great idea! You can easily get to other areas for a day trip but save money overall. It's certainly more relaxing to take long walks in the city, dine out and enjoy the waterfront when it's not as crowded. Looking forward to your recap video at the end of your stay!

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

We were a little nervous about spending so much time in a slower-paced city but we were very happy with our decision by the end. It really did help break up our faster travel and I would certainly recommend Bratislava to anyone looking for a rest stop. 😊

Both you traveling just like locals and well explained in good cost. Thank you!

@OurFreedomYears 9 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed it! 😊

watched this the other day & loved this!! the park or 'square' w/the food tents & night venues looked like a perfect place to stay out late & meet a TON of people. i could easily imagine myself spending a mo in a place like this, how much fun it would be to meet locals. that chicken skin that was poppin' looked REALLY good & i still love the 'free rick steves' tours!! :) . . .

@OurFreedomYears 11 месяцев назад

There was a great vibe as we walked around the old town...lots of events happening, very social.

Hello - could you possibly share your go to grocery list items and maybe what meals you make when eating at home? I would love a starter just to have an idea of what to grab in a foreign grocery store the first time you shop for the week/month!

@OurFreedomYears 11 месяцев назад

This is an excellent question that leads to a fairly lengthy answer! I'll try to keep it brief but let me know if you have more questions. We usually try to stock up on breakfast items as a first priority. For us, that means green tea, coffee, oatmeal, oat milk if available, nut butter, raisins and fresh fruit. We now cook mostly vegetarian meals at home so that means a lot of salads, soups and stews with lots of fresh produce (whatever is in season locally), plus legumes and grains. We'll also make egg dishes like frittata quite regularly. We find that the oil and vinegar in most Airbnbs isn't the quality we prefer so we usually add that to the grocery list as well. Hope that helps!

we are considering Bratislava for next spring, so this was a timely video for us. Liked the airbnb for the most part.

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

Glad you found it helpful! We certainly enjoyed our time there, especially hanging out at the beautiful waterfront with all the locals.

@ronbatt756 Год назад

I'm sure you'll enjoy chilling for a month there and temperatures should be comfortable. 🇨🇦

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

We loved it! Just the change of pace we needed.

@ItllBeFun 11 месяцев назад

Looks like a nice place.

@OurFreedomYears 11 месяцев назад

It turned out to be a really relaxed, lovely place to spend a month 😊

@alteredillusions100 8 месяцев назад

On your recommendation I am here in Bratislava planning to stay a month got here on October 2. It is a beautiful city.

@OurFreedomYears 8 месяцев назад

Wonderful! Hope you have an amazing time. We miss our lovely walks along the waterfront. 😊

@slowmads Год назад

Great video. . . We are planning an extended period in central/eastern Europe in 2025 after stints in South America and Schengen time in Portugal/Canary Islands. We visited Bratislava (yes, from Vienna!) for a few days last year and vowed to return for a longer time.

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

Such an exciting plan! You might have already seen all the main sights in Bratislava from your last trip but it could still be a good rest stop.

@missmomus Год назад

I haven't been there, but I know Slovakia has some nice mountains for hiking, if they aren't too far. I think it's a very good idea to avoid the most crowded and overtouristed European cities in the peak season!

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

It was certainly a refreshing change after the fast pace and crowded streets of Prague and Vienna. 😊

@branislavbosak 11 месяцев назад

is it only one video from bratislava or sholud i expect more since you spent one month there :)

@OurFreedomYears 11 месяцев назад

You're the only one who noticed 😂 We ended up doing just one video for Bratislava. But we've got two videos for Budapest, with the cost video heading your way this weekend.

@nh154321 Год назад

You can take a bus to Viena for a day trip if you get bored :)

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

Indeed! Although we were just in Vienna...you can see by our last video bit.ly/3PvONrp

@kleinpics Год назад

Go see the blue church :)

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

We couldn't miss it! It was just a block away from our apartment so we saw it every day. 😂

@keithss67 Год назад

I was there for 10 days. Had a good time. But 10 days was enough

@OurFreedomYears Год назад

I'm sure! You certainly would have seen all the sights in 10 days.

@keithss67 Год назад

@@OurFreedomYears was a great little French restaurant that I really loved. It was a surprisingly enjoyable stay. I took the train down from Brno and was on the way to Budapest. A charming very walkable town
