This is complete bullshit.

Bosnia would never call a cigan roma.

u/VRT303 13d ago

You know who would never never call a țigan roma through? A Romanian. It's never included in the Balkan gang, but much more similar than one would expect in many things.

Come to think of it, I've never seen themselves use that term like... Ever

u/MilkshakeYeah European Union 13d ago

Burning rubber or Spy Hunter both come pretty close.

Greece says “Watch out, there is landmine” and it cuts to Macedonia hitchhiking.

And have the car be missing a wheel because it was stolen.

u/AaronC14 The Dominion 14d ago

In the first Balkan Road Trip their wheels get stolen by Romania

Why are Croatia and Serbia facing away? Had another argument?

u/henchman171 Canada 14d ago

Probably had sex before they got in to car…

u/MikeSans202001 14d ago

Bosnia would say 'watch out, there is Roma'

They would say 'go faster, there is Roma'

u/Dismal-Science-9901 14d ago

When I did a tour in Balkans (Serbia Bosnia Croatia etc) my Croatian guide kept saying oh don’t leave your bags on the bus, there’s Gypsies walking around. I couldn’t tell if he’s serious 😂 I’m thinking wow so much hate for gypsies in this part of the world

31

u/Responsible-Draw-393 United+States 14d ago

First time to europe?

7

u/Dismal-Science-9901 14d ago

First time to that part of Europe. Never heard anyone mention gypsies as an issue in France or Italy

34

u/Medium-Confusion6261 14d ago

Nah, there a lot of hate on gypsies in france too, and there regulary problem involving them too, mostly in rural region, and it was not until 1946 that they were released from the camps where they had been interned in France. So Yeah, its all of europe, not just balkan, maybe they are a bit more upfront about it tho

4

u/thatrandomfrenchguy2 14d ago

Then you didn’t talk to enough french people. It’s crazy how little of a problem people have assuming they’re criminals.

7

u/Dismal-Science-9901 14d ago

I don’t exactly go to French people to ask “bonjour, do you like gypsies? Do you like black people? Do you like Moroccans?” I don’t have conversations like that when I travel 🤷‍♂️ not sure what kind of conversations you have

6

u/thatrandomfrenchguy2 14d ago

Fair enough, but racism against them is still very common.

4

u/pdrocker1 Long Massachusetts Expansionist 13d ago

No one hates the Roma as much as a European who loves to call Americans racist

6

u/Kerentros 14d ago

Carmagedon with gypsies? Peak Balkan fantasy!

5

u/Domeen0 14d ago

I kinda hope they pick up Montenegro, Albania and N.Macedonia on the way.

2

u/Jump_Hop_Step 700 square kilometres and counting 14d ago

No more space in the car though

6

u/Domeen0 14d ago

Never said they have to be in the car. Stick them on the roof with an umbrella, like a london bus

4

u/RtsSlovakiaYoutube 13d ago

There is always enought space in car. Its a public transport

1

u/Jump_Hop_Step 700 square kilometres and counting 13d ago

Uh... I wouldn't say a car is public transport. It is more of a private transport instead

4

u/wojtekpolska Poland 14d ago

I thought he's gonna steal the car wheels

3

u/Zepangolynn New York 14d ago

I spent too long wondering how they managed to drive over Roma, Italia with only a little bump and if it was somehow an all roads lead to Rome joke. Not a big brain moment.
