I have only been a little over a week in Slovakia but I managed to notice some things.

• Life just continues when it snows. Also the public transport. Dutch people know what I mean (life comes to a still when there I one snowflake).
• There are a lot of places where you can gamble.
• Many dogs are kept outside of the house, also when it snows.
• Almost every village has a water tower. A big blue or metal ball on a stick.
• all village that I have been had led streed lights.

I have made a similar posts about Germany & Austria
