I'm really glad you two enjoyed Serbian food
Of all the Americans or Canadians, you two and the cheeky cat Gizmo are the most likeable people who report on Serbia. Bravooo. Please make more videos in Leskovac Pirot nis Valjevo Priboje Uzice Sabac and Podujevo
A CHURCH is not a tourist attraction IT is THE HOUSE OF THE LORD and of HIS Worship and Praying ✝️✝️✝️
👍👍👍👍
Gorgeous 😍
There are plenty of things do to withou money, if u dont want to spend don't travrl
Nick and Rylah, sorry if misspelled the name. I have an advice for you gies. Knowing your next destination (provided you're not there already), I'd suggest you to visit (it rhymes as well : no fear here) Golem Grad in Norhtern Macedonia, there's a Wikipedia about that as well. It's a small island on the Prespa lake in N. Mac. known for many snakes, turtles, cormorans. In fact, I just saw a video here about a guy who explores places hardly anyone sees. But, you should search for Golem grad, not as snake island (you'd end up in Brasil). There are also buses from Kotor to Skoplje, the Capital of N. MAc. and than thee to Ohrid, a famous neighboring lake. Delete this post, and answer me your impression about such a thing. I'll be glad to help you find info on how to procede from Skoplje to Turkey.
They LEFT in MIDDLE of the match WTF... that is soo ultimate disrespect... most important football match and left mid match...
Wow that is really impressive...I do not think I could manage it : ) I love the scenery it is amazing.
I love smoky it’s really good. It’s like I eat a whole bag. I’m just a kid.😊😊😊😮😮😮
Сербы с холодным выражением лица? Их убивали фашисты во время 2 мировой войны. А потом страны НАТО ( те самые страны - которые помогали фашистам ) бомбили их в 1999году , разделив их страну погрузив Балканы в войну. И им быть добрыми и мягкими??????????????? Сербы классные люди .
Belgraders generally don't like the waterfront. The building are quite ugly and generally constructed of poor quality materials, they are also placed too closely together: you can see this from Savksa street. Its going to create serious problems when all of these buildings are occupied since the current roads won't be able to handle the traffic. People also don't like the lack of green spaces in the area. They have also complained of the smell of sewerage in the summertime, its sometimes unbearable when visiting Galerija, due to the fact that they are pumping directly into the Danube. A waterfront project was necessary, but they way they are doing it is wrong.
Pametan si😂
@@acokostic810 Znam!
Yes, those are wild pomegranates. The juice made of them is beyond description, packed with vitamins as it is not thermally processed. Just sugar is added, nothing else.
I wonder why you guys didnèt ask for water in those houses on the top of the trail !!!??? Every person on Balkan is willing to help. Talking about random people on the street , NOT RESTORAN STUFF ,LOL🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is really nice...in the USA we probably would not think to ask....not sure about in Canada...I have often heard Canadians are nicer than us Americans. In our rural areas perhaps people are more likely to lend a helping hand. : ) In American cities it is usually every man for himself.
In Serbia there are very good sites and apps for all trails and mountain hikes with all details for planning, probably they have them in Montenegro as well.
I'm going to Serbia next month...any recommendations for which neighborhoods are best to get a hotel in Belgrade? It would be nice if I could walk down to the riverside from where I stay. I most want to see St Sava church and the rivers...maybe go for a few days to a village.
The real question is, how will she survive in Canada without burek? :(
If she realy like it that much ,she can buy them in Serbian restoraunts or even frozen ones in Canadian stores🤣🤣🤣
@@COCOGROCOSHOW In Turkey (wings, lol) that's their next hiking destination. Nick, burek is also (allegedly certainly) even better in Turkey, as that is where it came from, and stayed in Balkans "culture".
We have burek where I live in California but it is the Turkish variety. We have many Turkish restaurants but I have never seen Serbian food here. I think Chicago has more immigrants from the Balkans, or maybe NYC.
@@suzannstrohmaier2578 You could go right to Toronto, I myself know some people who moved from Belgrade (and had a good restaurant here) to Toronto. I gues it's full of Serbian people.
@leokaloper4132 wow cool...I've never been to Canada 🇨🇦...I want to go someday...I've heard Toronto is really nice. Someone on the computer called Chicago "New Serbia" 😆 I lived in Chicago for a few months a long time ago and it has a strong Eastern European influence...especially Polish. Not sure if you know...I am going to Belgrade next month...and which neighborhood is best for finding a hotel? Maybe walking distance to one of the rivers? Thanks : )
Awesome. My PB is 33k.
The guy has a very nice physique!
I'm very glad you liked your stay in our capital! 👍 Best of luck guys and visit us again! 👋
Loved this video, you made it so spooky in the fortress! Imagine spending the night there 😱 Cool experience for sure!
I'm sure Gizmo is just fine with "Mama" 🤣🤣🤣. Better then going 35 000 steps with you guys.
Go to Luštica peninsula, go to Rose, visit rt Veslo camp and Arza fortress
Really enjoying your trip and commentary. Will be visiting the Balkans this summer so your itinerary has been perfect to get a good understanding of what to do in the region.
Hi guys : ) good to see you back...I missed your videos. Happy Palm Sunday 🌴🌴 It is the Eastern Orthodox Palm Sunday, their Easter is later than ours. ☺
I chose Herceg Novi over Kotor and other places further into the bay because it has much better access to the water/beaches/swimming than Kotor which doesn’t have great water access since there is the big harbor. HN also has much better sun exposure.
I can see and feel that the two of you are so in love with each other. The chemistry is bursting, luv it.
Hey guys, did you purchase the tickets online?
Hi, yes we did! We used the Srbijavoz app
Thank you guys for this video!Novi Sad is my hometown❤❤❤Now I'm in Kitchener. On(almost six years now)and I can't wait to visit and hug my beautiful town again!❤❤❤
Now we know that foot scraper may be for the dog poop! Lol!
Come to Albania
You had a perfect weather! If you went during the hot weather, you would've got burnt and you wouldn't have liked it at all. That is what I did with my friends, and one of them got a heat stroke, couldn't get up from bed for a day. It was also pretty crowded with other boats which made the ride much more bumpy as they were making waves.
Your boy friend is so handsome.
Irish song ? 🙂 Actually very appropriate because many places in Serbia and some in Montenegro have Celtic (Irish) origins. -Belgrade old roman name is Singidunum (from Celtic name Sindidun).
Always love your videos! Take your time, enjoy and be together! We are not only here for Gizmo but the Company too! Loved the boat tour! 🛥️ ❤🇨🇦🐈
I was just thinking about you guys today and where you disappeared , you got us worried!😁 happy you had great experience, great video as always! Ps: i know you spent Sunday drinking warm tea after that tour lol 😂
Thank you! Hahaha, warm tea was very welcomed after the tour!
Being a hungarian that begging style is new for me, but: -the beggar hears you are foreigner, traveling to hungary, sonyou HAVE money. -the beggar sees you have selfie-stick, catching you making video 5 minutes earlier on the other side of the square, so he knows you have money if you have equipment for making videos -the beggars in hungary usually stalks hungarians for a couple of meters with asking for a little money, BUT: foreign travelers with money won't understand hungarian, so they prey on young americans who don't want to be stalked by international language, pantomime, "give me money". They don't speak any languages so for foreigners they shortcut it with agressive tactics as foreigners have no clue what's going on and they rather surrender to just to get out of trouble. Now, the more the not yet seasoned youngster travloggers surrender, the more they use this type of tactics. These beggars are opportunistics, have the sense of understanding behavioral psychology and they work together, peobably they stalk you invisibly through streets and play the same game over and over with the same couple, if they prone to yield. While you are occupied with getting to know yourself around the city as a foreigner, they keep you in eye distance and in a band they flank you for another generousity act but with another beggar face. The regular beggars in subways are just the very same with tables, though tables are usually used by immigrant beggars from transylvania. Actually being hungarian, writing hungarian for a beggar is a language barrier: hungarians are not very easy on letting go money for street beggars. Travloggers are very frequent in Budapest therefore poor people, not even beggars try themselves without any linguistic skills and they do they performance, they do their psychological effects whatever they can improvise. If you were in Tunisia in touristy places, well, you should know by now how it goes. In Tunisia the vendor (e.g. little voy sells jasmin small flowers) will follow and stand in front of you forcing to stop, to buy his merchandize. He will haggle down the price to ridiculous small amount, and if you go into that just to get rid of the vendor who now followed and harassed you for half an hour over many streets, he will laugh telling that money is a joke, and tells you a higher price - now knowing that you are prone to pay just to get rid of him. Begging and ripping of people in street is an art in asia and europe. The americans and canadians are born in very young states, countries, where begging is just hundred years old act, in the midst of the highest level of capitalism on earth. So you have to live here, to get around milleniums of beggar-culture, from the amcient greeks and romans. Hungarian is spoke by only a 15-20M people in the world, though it is a special, very descriptive, multi-perspective giving language which worths to save, at least for culture, science, etc. poor hungarian speakers are hindered by it when meating with foreigners. Like you were having fun with Judit and András speaking about various stuff - but you were speaking your mothertounge and they were not. Their mothertounge would let them be more descriptive, more understandable, but the language barrier force them to tell their thoughts in an a more simple form of another language. Americans, canadians never catch this in the act while having fun, that we are different when we speaking on our own mothertounge, very different.
We all have been missing your daily videos! Looking forward to seeing you guys soon!
Hii, my family and I have been following you since you started visiting Balkan especially my dad, it is his birthday today btw. He is your biggest fan and supporter. Your videos are so entertaining and educative, I hope you are enjoying your time here. Best regards!
Thank you so much! Happy birthday to your dad! 🥰
That burek looks soooooo good LOL. People there speak English some may be too busy, or didn't want to bother etc.
Awful food. Must go to the toillet.
Kotor is among the rainiest towns in Europe.
Does Belgrade get much rain in the summer...late June/Early July?
Yeah , If you buy some Canadian or US food ,you have to pay like double there . When I was in visit last summer in Serbia ,it was same . Only Canadian or US wiskey and brandy are cheeper there because no big tax like in Canada
You guys need some hats. If you have time go to Sveti Stefan,Miločer and Bečići beach. It's not to far from Budva. You still need some transport to there.
When you said that in Montenegro everything is polako,polako 😂 you have to hear this joke that will explain most of people in Montenegro: Host on radio... Good morning working people of Montenegro....it's 12 o'clock (noon,midday). It's a joke but it's actually like that in real life.
Lol, so true!!
Nick, those two tiny bits of "cheese" next to ajvar are fit for a cat 😊 Or a mousetrap?! 😂
LOL
They ripped you off at the bus station. The racketeering.
No, every citizen pays that fees. Same in Belgrade
@@user-tj7nb9fu9t No, Dear f. It is not the same. Your statement is fake. False, completely! First, a daily public transport ticket (dnevna karta) in Belgrade costs one dollar. $1. In Serbian money currency, equivalent is 120 dinars. And you can take a bus ride (or tram, electric bus...) as many times as you want, throughout the day, any line you need. Okay. But what about the night service? Ah, here comes the best part: the night bus is for free. Next, it is very simple to install a phone application for a city of Belgrade public transport. It's called Beograd Plus, and the English version is also available, Belgrade Plus. You send a simple SMS, and a fare is being charged. If you don't have the time to do that, or whatever the reason, you can simply buy a small size practical paper ticket, at any newsstand, and there are thousands of them at every corner, open 24/7. Normally, at many bus stops there are huge screen displays navigating over GPS the exact minute of arrival of a vehicle etc., informing passengers in details. And last, but not less important, there are no rude or unpleasant men in Belgrade, selling bus tickets, or anything else, whatsoever. No one is rude. And, men are gentlemen. With good manners.
@@user-tj7nb9fu9t Just admit it, these two were practically being blackmailed, forced to use that ride, since it's the only bus line that they have. So, take it or leave it. Either that, or they cannot come back at all. Completely corrupted system. I feel sorry for ordinary people who live there.
Enjoy it guys. Budva is kinda overrated tbh, but for tourists its really cool and there is quite a few things to see. Try calamari while being outside of the bay!!! Trust me❤
I don't wanna scare you and I don't mean to scare you, but now that you came back to Kotor, I have to tell you something...in Budva you were fascinated by those high rocks... back in 1968 I think three students from Serbia, there were jumping of those cliffs, when one of them jumped for the last time, out of nowhere and it's an open sea, the great white shark came and killed him... there was memorial monument on those rocks I don't know if there is still but this is the true event that happened. Hi from Belgrade.
There is a higher chance that you will die just by jumping itself than to see great white again 😁
Wow, that is awful, poor kid...very scary...I am not too keen on going into the ocean. I live in California and I just like to look at the ocean...anyway our water in Northern California is really cold. : )
Sharks don't live in the Adriatic sea, but from time to time, they come after large ships. That Is what happened then, I think he was 18 years old, they were in sport, and on that day he had a t-shirt with the number of that date when that happened. He jumped and she came right away..I saw that place, high rocks, scarry and beautiful. They didn't expect that but you never know they can be anywhere...
@@suzannstrohmaier2578 Adriatic is the safest sea this incident occurred once in like known history lol... they came after big boats. Adriatic sea have no big predators the worse thing you can encounter is sea hedge which sometime can be seen in rocky shallow waters but it's obvious... most beaches are separated with nets and cleaned so nothing really can happen. Sea is warm... Montenegro is nice but Greece is like next level with more than 3000 islands. Greece is not too expensive either. Only thing is that Greece have some kind of poisonous medusa or how you call it... jelly fish... it's only dangerous thing that you can spot in waters. Whole gigantic Mediterain sea is diverse but super warm... south sections have sharks but that is towards Egypt. Somewhere in the waters is the lost city of Atlantida destroyed by massive volcanic eruption and magma flows... it's interesting vibe compared to California... much much warmer waters and different nature.
@orkovic Nice, yeah our water is pretty cold. Florida on the Gulf of Mexico side is really good....warm and white sand. I have heard that Greece is really amazing. I think Bull Sharks 🦈 may be the only type that can be found in both fresh water and salt water. Once in awhile we have news of a shark attack, sometimes they go after surfers over here...but it's rare.
I wonder what would you do on 40+C in August?!😂😂😂 And you are flying to Turkey next!🎉🎉🎉 PS. Get some 50+ sunscreen protection!!!❤❤❤
I am not a fan of so much heat...I already got my plane tickets for Serbia (end of June through first part of July) I will be prepared for some hot weather. : ) and I got my SPF ☀☀☀☀
Just that walk beside sea in kotor bay , surrounded by mountains, soothes your soul😍 budva is more like party town for youngs during summer , and it have really nice and big sand beaches
You must be an old retired man 😂
You should have visited Saint Stefan near Budva. But near sunset.
