The inauguration of the new American president, Joe Biden, was exciting in many ways: from new traditions to musical performances to fashion combinations and memes. Poet Amanda Gorman has jumped from about 50,000 followers to a whopping 2.5 million in a matter of hours on social media. Such a jump did not surprise us considering the performance at the opening, which was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful moments of the entire ceremony.

Living in mini houses is a real architectural and social movement that celebrates simple living in a small home. In 2018, the International Housing Code also officially defined what kind of house qualifies as a mini house: it must be less than 37 square meters.

Americans are unfortunately considered a somewhat limited people. Perhaps this is due to a lack of curiosity or education, and for some reason they lack the very knowledge of geography. Jimmy Kimmel therefore decided to ask people to name certain countries on a map. And what happened?

American diplomats in Slovenia recited Prešeren and once again caused laughter https://citymagazine.si/en/american-diplomats-in-slovenia-recited-preserna-and-made-laughter-again/ Fri, 10 Feb 2017 07:00:03 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=video&p=288548

As you probably already know by now, American diplomats have Slovenian classes at the embassy in Ljubljana. They showed how they are progressing on Prešeren's day, when they published a video in which they recite Prešeren's poetry. Laughter guaranteed!

The Americans explain to the world why Slovenia and Slovakia have such similar names https://citymagazine.si/en/americans-explain-to-the-world-why-slovenia-and-slovakia-have-so-similar-names/ Wed, 08 Feb 2017 07:02:00 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=video&p=288128

Due to the many similarities in name, flag and language, Slovenia and Slovakia are still regularly confused in the world. Did you know that Slovenian and Slovak share 1100 words? Lately, because of Melania Trump, the "all-knowing" Americans have also become more attentive to Slovenia, who, in order to avoid changing countries, have prepared a contribution in which they present the history of the two countries that incidentally gained independence in the same period, thereby providing additional confusion, and explain where the reason for similar names comes from. You probably didn't know that either, or that to smoke in Slovak means to poop or to go to great need.

If you are planning to travel abroad, it is wise to take a few minutes to study the map prepared by the experts at International SOS and Control Risks, which ranks tourist destinations according to the level of danger. Do not travel to these countries if you want to return home in one piece. These are the most dangerous tourist destinations of 2017.

The Simpsons saw Donald Trump in the role of President for sixteen years before he actually became the President of the United States. It's not the first time the longest-running animated TV series has proven prophetic. Among other things, they have already announced September 11, the outbreak of Ebola and the Syrian civil war.

He who laughs last laughs best. Months ago, we laughed at American diplomats from the American embassy who published a video of them learning Slovenian. Now the empire strikes back. As you will find out, English is just not as easy for Slovenians as we think. Slovenian knowledge of English was tested at the Embassy of the United States of America during the celebration of the 4th of July (Independence Day). Just what could go wrong? Watch how famous Slovenians speak English!

Americans are notoriously clueless about geography. They are often ridiculed for their ignorance of countries. Geography Now wants to change that. That's why they recently got to know our southern neighbor. Look at how the Americans see Croatia and how they presented its connection with Slovenia.

A lot of time has passed since the days when people dressed in scary costumes chased away winter by creating shacks, but the desire to brighten up the gray winter days has not disappeared. On the contrary, the reason for rejoicing has spread all over the world, even to hot tropical places. The holiday season has become the fifth season, the time when we throw away our worries and forget about the boring everyday life. Whether the reason for the Bakus carnival was the harsh winter, the desire to hide one's identity or something else, it doesn't matter today, the important thing is that during the carnival there is paradise all over the world.

The beginnings of adrenaline rides date back to the 17th century, in Russia, and the wagons were first placed on rails in France in the 19th century. 131 years ago, we got the famous "Gravitational Pleasure" railway in New York, where the "first hand-held" cars "crushed" at a speed of 10 km/h. Yes, you read that right, 10 km/h. Which is nothing compared to the speeds they reach today. And where in the world can we find the craziest trains? In America, of course!
