Translation with deepl:
This is no joke! Two German tourists got a criminal record because they thought Romania had joined the Schengen Area! It all started after the surveillance cameras located near the border line, on the Garbolcz road (Hungary), at the S.P.F. Petea headquarters, around 17.40, issued an alert and transmitted images of two people riding their bicycles from Romania to Hungary, according to PresaSM information.
The images transmitted by the surveillance cameras showed the two people riding around the concrete obstacle and the barrier on the road, illegally crossing the border from Romania into Hungary. The intervention team of S.P.F. Petea was alerted and went to the scene, but the two persons could not be identified and detained.
At the same time, the Hungarian border authorities were informed and sent a team to the area, thus managing to apprehend the two persons. During the border meeting that took place at the S.P.F. Petea headquarters, in order to jointly investigate the border event, the Hungarian border authorities informed that the two persons are German citizens.
According to PresaSM data, in front of the Hungarian authorities, the persons in question declared that they were on holiday and were travelling on bicycles guided by the GPS application of their mobile phones. This is how they arrived in the town of Petea, where the app showed them that there was a border crossing point, as they intended to cross the border from Romania into Hungary. Being used to travelling freely through Europe, without customs controls between countries, they did not know that they could not cross the border there.
It makes me curious. Which country are you from?
Anyway, where I live we don’t learn this kind of things, but somehow I know the difference between EU and Schengen. Long because I was able to there. May be I learned through Wikipedia. Can’t remember.
The Netherlands. In the heart of the EU.
Oh, what a coincidence. I live somewhere there for quite awhile - not long to be able to learn Dutch. I find the Dutch culture to be quite interesting. Your fascination of gifting, including flowers was not something that I used to while I was in the UK. In my opinion, you are very genuine with you emotion. I may be generalizing too much, but that’s what I feel. Wish I could be back but I don’t think will get the chance anymore.
Edit: And I got some Indonesian friends who celebrated birthday in the ways that I’ve never seen before. Then, when I got to the Netherlands, I figured where the influence is from.
I myself am not that much of a gifter, there are situations where I have to remind myself of such what I see it as rules. But that may have something to do with my autism…
