Yeah politic is messed right now in Hungary and Slovakia in this regard. But I don’t think that it sets general feelings towards lgbtq. As a tourist you should be fine, I had really weird encounters in really rural area in Romania but never felt like I was in danger. Just to be safe I would put the rainbow flag down but that’s all, lots of people are progressive, even in those countries, and assholes are everywhere.

Hit me up if you will ride through Czech Republic, I am not active much on this account so - @plactagonic@sopuli.xyz (my second lemmy account); @plactagonic@f.cz (mastodon)

I started with it because I couldn’t get anything decent from store. Now I can get some really good cider from small makers.

For most people it is love/hate, it is really simple and completely dry, it isn’t for everyone. I really like it and now we started to experiment with it more so maybe more interesting brews are coming (I hope that I will make at least one more batch this year).

Take it then through central Europe. CZ and SK take some routing skills but it is really nice to bike here, don’t worry about Austria the bike infrastructure is top quality. Hungary is good too but it is really boring (too flat). Don’t trust that Romania and Bulgaria are backwards in this regard, it is doable (I would say it is bit worse than CZ and SK).

I wasn’t in all countries I mentioned some of it is from friends who were there. Maybe mention it in bikepacking/touring community (it is on lemmy.world so you will need another account) someone will give you more hands on advice.

What’s your plan? Route, expected timeline, countries you will visit, what you would like to see…

Finally after 2 years making cider. Last year there wasn’t any apples left on trees (I don’t know if they froze or what happened, it was bad year). So it is bit hectic, runs between home, “juicery”, brew shop and my friend home where it stays. I was bit worried my reserves started to run dry and I have 1 archive bottle left. Trying adding hops and spices, more info here.

No we use it for fun, it is work but it is mainly for our experiments/whacky ideas that we want to try. The bread is just a bonus ;-).

Look at my oldest post, there is “oven” we made few years ago and we call it Igorrr.

I and other instructors make bread and other things in it. It is less work to make one big loaf than lots of small tortillas/pitas. I burned ceramic in it this year.

It would be some sort of tortillas and other types of flatbread.

In theory it is simple just make dough and put it on the iron plates (directly on stove). In practice you stand 2 hours directly above hot wood stove and making 100 of them.

Easy meals are necessary, you can’t make hard to cook meals every day. Only few times we decided to make our lives harder and make sth like tortillas.
