This is nice for Olympians!

Our team has had no problems with one exception - one of the wrestlers said, that his phone was stolen from his room. Another interesting story was that a female athlete wanted to go to the store to buy some coffee, but they said to her that it was too dangerous, even though the store was 5 minutes from the building. But she really wanted her coffee, so they assigned an armed soldier to escort her, which was very surreal to her.

And it seems Hungarian and Polish are being watched very closely by the Germans

Gymnastics isn't popular at all outside of your country and Russia/East Europe, so I don't think many people would tell Biles apart.

 

I dont know Hungary is "Eastern Europe" or not, but i think Hungarians only care about gymnastics when there is a Hungarian medal chance like last Olympics.

 

Apart from Russia and ex-USSR, I think it's Romania where gymnastics is really more popular.

But our American colleague has a point too: NBA (along with NHL) are the American major sports which are more followed internationally, so, obviously, much more ppl outside the USA know about or can recognize famous NBA players than, say, NFL or MLB players.

I think it's not an accident - even in Brazil they know that "Pole and Hungarian — two good friends/Polak, Węgier - dwa bratanki/Lengyel, magyar - két jó barát"

Our building is number 10 if it matters.
