Smedovac, priča o zvoniku
When Prince Milan Obrenović of Serbia was 18 years old, in 1872, he donated a bell to the village of Smedovac. The small village in Eastern Serbia, five kilometers from the border with Bulgaria, had at that time a flourishing viticulture.
Today many people have left the village and the bell tower had fallen into disrepair over the years. When I first saw the bell tower in 2018, there was already a risk that the roof would collapse and the bell would fall.
When I saw the tower and the small bell for the first time, I knew: This has to be repaired. And we did it. The EU made the funds available and now the tower has been renovated again and the bell is now hanging safely where it has been since 1872. And hopefully it will hang there for many years to come.

    My home island, Ebon Atoll. @doughaswest5735, if I can remember, the copra warehouse was built on Mon Waktak weto? If I'm correct. I visited Ebon back in 1978 and 1979. I'm sure you remember Troy Barker? He was a peace corp during those years as well.

  • @douglaswest5735
    @douglaswest5735 Před rokem

    Great video Alex. I was a Peace Corps volunteer on Ebon Atoll from 1973 to 1975. I worked as a Coop Business Advisor. I may still be famous there because we constructed a copra warehouse for the coop and named it The Doug West Memorial Copra Warehouse. This field trip ship looks very nice (but very similar) to the numerous field trip ships that I traveled on, e.g. the Ralik Ratak, the Militobi, the Truk Islander, MS Robert DeBroom, and others. In those years there was no airport, no electricity or running water, no internet - NO NOTHING. So the arrival of a field trip ship every three or four months with supplies for the coop, and personal mail, was always an exciting day - you knew the ship had arrived when you heard numerous shouts of “Jail Ho (sail ho). I was on certain trips to Ebon that took as long as two weeks to get there with stops in Kwajalein, Lib, Namu, Alinglaplap, and the usual stops at Jaluit, Kili and Namdrik. This video is an accurate depiction of a field trip in the Marshalls. The ships were typically tramp-steamers with little comfort, often breaking down while at sea, drifting until repaired. It was always so good to get off the boat and get food and a shower. I worked in Laura Village in Majuro during my third year in the PC. Spent another 8 years in Majuro from 2008 to 2016 working in the Jehovah’s Witness ministry (Ri Kannaan Ro an Jeoava). Currently living in Salem, Oregon; there are many Marshallese people living here. Thanks for the video, Doug (6/18/2023)

  • @sibeaster
    @sibeaster Před rokem

    I believe this Kladovo Fortress is very interesting place, but...It's so far from Belgrade, it's a long time way to go here by bus, there is no any train here...So It's great problem to seduce usual tourist to go there. I plan to go this autumn by "usual" touristic route through medieval Serbian monasteries (UNESCO sites!), and if I was not experienced tourist, I'd never take this route - logistics there is next to nothing (rare trains, rare buses, no normal timetable), photo-making is prohibited in churches and so on. There is long and difficult way for Serbia to become interesting for tourists...
