- Back in Serbia! I arrived last Monday after spending three weeks in Colombia and Mexico. It's time to start working and enjoying my favorite country. This apartment is expensive, but I really enjoy living here.
- Zábava
Jako pozitivan covek... Gledajuci kako tako sa dobrom emocijom nas promovise, dodje mi da se vratim u Srbiju :)
Ne nasedaj!

Vrlo nekulturan. Moju rodjaku je nazvao babom iako ima 35 god i prelepa je i obrazovana. Valjda ga pale klinke.. Ne znate vi njega dobro.
@@ovoono4484 hahaha
Ne mesaj turizam i emigraciju :) Zavisi kolika mu je plata...Ako radis za srpsku platu, zivot u ovom apartmanu je nemoguca misija, sa sve 'zlatnim dobom'....
Welcome Back ! Your new apartment is nicely spacious and well decorated ! Enjoy home sweet home !
I went to Serbia for a little over a week between late August and early September before my semester started. I was utterly amazed in each city and the people were some of the warmest I have experienced in all my travels. Before, my favorite city was Bansko, Bulgaria but I think I've made my mind up to retire in Novi Sad. Its a beautiful nation - definitely heading back. I've even thought about getting my masters in Belgrade, but I don't think my veteran benefits will cover it, sadly 🥲 Congratulations on your new spot
I think hospitality is a bit over the top on Balkans. But it's not just Serbia, but all other countries around. It's our mentality.
If we are beautiful for you, than you dont know us. Beautiful is just mask. You must ask Bosniaks, Albanians and another neighbors who we are, thay knows us.
@@ivke4835 they cannot know us.
@@ivke4835 I am Serbian and I know US. You are not Serbian and you don't know US. What Bosnians or Albanians think about us is irrelevant. We are hospitable and good people. You could only hate US.
Invest more in Serbia instead of bombing and killing us
White Angel from Monastery of Mileševa, absolute beauty
Gorenje is a Slovenian company. It is a new model, just 'retro'.
Heating is called 'central heating'.
WELCOME BACK!!!!
I like how you have the washing machine (that is also a dryer?) right near your bed, you can listen to your wash getting done as you drift off to sleep! And I'm not even being snide, when I was growing up, one house we were in that I really liked, I had a room that had been the utility room or something and the washer and dryer were right nearby and I found the sounds of them soothing.
Welcome back Charles🎉 🙂
Awesome, dobrodošao nazad!
Welcome Charles!!
Nice Apartment brate.Dobrodošao nazad.
I hope xou have some nice komšinice.
dobro došao Charles, stan ti je super 🖐️
Nice looking one you got there. Great design!
Hey Charles, what a nice place! I just spent a fair amount of time yesterday looking through airbnbs for a place to stay for a week and paid about that for something not nearly as nice...but also, I get it, its to be expected. I've been watching your videos on and off for some years now from the comfort of my home in Los Angeles, but I've been traveling around Europe for the past few months (currently in Sofia, Bulgaria) and I will be in Novi Sad from Dec. 12-19. It would be awesome to grab a beer or a hot chocolate or whatever with you man! Either way, keep rockin', Godspeed!
Looks nice Charles, wish you everything best!
I'm blown away that you can get the same thing in Japan for the same price, not in the very dead center of Tokyo but not far from the center at all. And .... it'd be in Tokyo!
This is a place where he wants to be. You can go to Japan. Good luck with that 🤷♀️
It's a nice apartment. I had received multiple IT job offers from companies in Serbia and recently I decided to seriously consider relocating from the US. If it all works out maybe we will run into each other.
Nice flat! Like the furnitures inside.
Very nice design. Congratulations :)))) just the washing machine in the bedroom is first time I see that :))))) pozdrav :)
Pevi put vidim veš mašinu i bojler u garderoberu spavaće sobe u Srbiji. Pretpstavljam da je pri renoviranju stana zaključeno da ce kupatilo izgledati lepše bez mašine i bojlera, ali ubaciti ih u spavaću je baš bezveze.
Really pretty place you got over there my bro!! Hope you're doing really well I always enjoy watching your videos for a couple years now! It's always interesting to me seeing Serbian bathrooms, the toilets in particular are so different than here in the US. The tanks that are usually behind the toilet here are so high up over there. Very intriguing to see!!
In Australia you will be apartments like this in exclusive place pay 35oo dollar for months.
Добродошао назад! I recently found this channel (I commented on the last video) but I have watched every video. The apartment is great, in my opinion even better than the previous one, I like the design and decoration in it, but I'm not sure about the price... Anyway, good luck!
Boris! Drago mi je! Happy to know ya!
It's a cool flat! Although it seems a bit rich in price, we have to remember it is fully furnished.
Awesome!
Glad you like it. Enjoy!
Beautiful apartment! There are dryers in Serbia, it's two in one. It washes clothes and then dries.
Sounds like that summer vacancy is baked into the price a bit, so it makes sense. Good deal!
Prices in Novi Sad are sky rocketing in the last couple of years. Welcome my friend and have a good time here. I would like to meet you if you are willing to, drink some beer...
Nice apartment. I think you got a pretty good deal. When I was in Novi Sad I payed about the same but my apartment was smaller.
Happy B Day🥳
You can have washer and dryer all in one,its a little bit more expensive then regular washer.If you don't pay rent when you are gone then its really cheap.
Beautiful!!! ❤️
The only thing I hate in SRB is so few power outlets in apartments....we are used to so many in each room, in North America
$600 is a bit steep, but the atmosphere, the deisgn and that cozy feeling you can't appraise.
Of course there are cheaper, but I like privacy and a bit of more modern place.
@@ilovesrbija And if I calculate the other half of the year that you are in the US, that comes to $300, which is quite a bargain.
Pogledaj samo po oglasima koliko su cene otisle u kurac, ja nisam mogao da verujem. Ovo je cak i okej cena.
bit steep? Our median salary is about 600e max so the top rent should go to aprox 1/3 of that salay. So lets say 300e would be normal on expensive side... Not 600 or 1000e if you are IT or IT from russia...
@@obilic93 Well as Charlie said, half the year he is in US and he doesn't have to pay for that, so it's 300 already.
Their is drying machine in Serbia, you can buy one that requires only electricity and has a container for water, so you can place ot where want, plus it heats up the room a little
Nice apartment bro 👌
Great place l was in novi sad 2 months ago. Took the bullet train from Belgrade. Happy new year from Toronto
Apartment has nice details, but for 600€ I would expect to have opportunity to wash my hands inside the bathroom, not in a hallway, and not to sleep next to the washing machine and have actual bedroom, not a sleeping corner. Apartment is overrated.
I heard about using shaving foam to clean the stainless steel surface. Once clean, rub a little baby oil on it to prevent future spots. It is worth a try, in my opinion.
Nek si ti živozdrav gari. Nađi šta tebi odgovara i to je apsolutno tvoja sloboda. Inače interesantan je lavabo kako izgleda na tom ormariću. Izgleda jako starinski. Samo fali bokal vode, kao u filmovima gde se radnja dešava u industrijskom dobu kako ti kažeš Čarlse 😉😁😁😁😁😊🙃🙂.
May you be healthy, pal. Find the things that it suits for you. It's very interesting the way how this sink look like on that locker. It has that vintage look. What's missing is the jug with water, just like in the movies, where the place is going in the industrial age, just like you said it Charles 😉😁😁😁😁😊🙃🙂.
Looks so nice bro! 👀👌 Svaka cast!
As for the stainless steel parts in your kitchen, once in a while, they need to be polished with a bit of oil (sunflower, olive...). This should prevent those ugly spots to appear.
In the winter you can dry on the radiator to speed it up.
Wipe out stainless steel appliances with a white vinegar, use one of those soft microfiber cloth, dump some vinegar on it and just wipe a water marks.
Welcome back Charles. Sadly that isnt expensive anymore, prices went to hell this year because of many Russians imigrating/escaping here. In belgrade 600 bucks is basically one of the lowest prices. Shoe boxes apartments (22-24m2) cost like 350 eur per month, Its really crazy how much property prices went up (about 50% up compared to year/two ago). Hopefully that will change next year because it really doesnt pay off to live here as a tenant on average salary because whole salary alone isnt enough to cover it.
Also considering many comments about price, you could make video showing apartment renting prices on market sites so they could get pleasantly surprised by the increase like the rest of us. lol.
Yes, appartment prices went to hell (thx to Russians) but it's all in other areas (electricity, food, fuel etc). It's scary tbh. And grim.
@@p.sutcliffe114 Yes everything went to hell. It's partly Russian fault, but it's also the politics of Europe to sanction themselves in attempt to harm the Russian economy.
I know someone who is renting a cosy apartment (30 sqm) in good condition, average equipment and furniture (TV, heaters + aircon, fridge, kitchen, clean bathroom), second floor, a little balcony, three bus lines nearby, very good landlord, for 190 euros (last year it was 160 euros), in the southern part of Belgrade called Knezevac.
Awesomeeeeee
The apartment is nice, but I think that 600 euros is too much, and maybe this is the situation on the market at the moment, considering the large number of Russians and Ukrainians who want to rent an apartment, primarily in Belgrade and Novi Sad. Welcome home Charles
Da! The Ruskis have sent the real estate market to the moon! Good people though, love the Ruskis!
I heard over a hundred thousand Russians came to Serbia some already opened up businesses that's what the media is saying.
WOuld you pay appartment 150 000 euros and rent it for 300???
@@dzonikg how much tax you pay om renting Dzoni? I payed apartement in Fraknfurt 180k but half of rent will go for tax..
@@aleksandarj.8369 I dont pay anything for rent..i have house and 2 apartments that my parents and grandparents left me...but if i rent them i would not for sure for 300 euro ..you would need renovation every few years ,you know how much now that cost?My friend renovated apparment lately...cost him around 20 000 euro
Well im Serbian and i have dryer lol, it's great for winter cold days.
Dobro došao kući Čarli, stan je odličan :D
That is way to expensive, yes it is a little luxurious but not whort it maximum 400 € is worth it with actual high on prices.
It fits my budget perfectly, love the location, owner is great, and very accommodating to my 6 months in Serbia, 6 months in the States. You can find cheaper, but I didn't like any of the under 300 ones.
@@ilovesrbija what's up Charles don't forget to tell your parents to play the powerball the next jackpot is 1.2 billion dollars that would fit into anybody's budget.
@@bilic8094 I used to play it but I feel it's exploitation of poor people. The chance is too slim to waste money on tickets unless you buy just 1.
In the US you see the poorest people buying lot's of these tickets.
@@daddy1571 I just played 2 dollars what the hell I know the chances are extremely low.
@@bilic8094 Nothing wrong with that. Me too! I mean all the poorest people who buy up too many tickets that they can't afford neglecting their family.
Браво За Тебе
Dobro došao kući!
600 euros for 1 bedroom apartment with washer in bedroom, and no bedroom doors. Anyone coming to your apartment has view of your private space - your bedroom.
No curtains in living room and so many windows of neighboring buildings looking at your living room?! Coffee table is .. strange, almost at floor level, now how impractical is that? Living room is good size and nicely equipped.
Maybe location is close to downtown, but that still it does not explain such high price.
Dont rent it. I like all of it. If i decide it isnt good, ill find another.
Keep in mind, it’s USD$ … so it’s more in 💶 €’s … looks good, but it’s too much for Serbia.
I wouldn’t pay more than €400/month, but again if it fits your budget and you feel good in that place, enjoy it.
Good to be back ☺️👍🏼
its only more 1.03%
@@ogimia € is dead 💀… wait and see what will happen to it next year … US$ rocks 😎
@@sashan.4786 cad sucks too so aint no matter to me
@@ogimia not really, we got oil & gas … and everything else ;)
@@sashan.4786 long term yes! But right now its losing on euro and it will for several more months before it starts heading down
Enjoy it...
I just thought of you tonight walking in the center of Novi Sad... Where is that man disappeared?
That price is monstrous for everyday people here
I think that picture of the angel are from the Monastery of Mileseva. How many square meters has your apartment?
Charles, I hope this message finds you well. My son and I will be in Belgrade from 18 to 20 December and 31 December to 2 January. 2 nights each way. Maybe we can meet day of 19 December or 1 January?
The apartment is really nice, however the price is inflated because they know that 600$ for you is nothing...most people here can barely scrap 250$ with bills.
you have really nice cozy apartment. I pay $350 for mine, also in Novi Sad next to stari grad. Beautiful place, but can be loud at night 😅
Ok, it is 600$ which seems too steep for that small space but if you don't pay while you're gone, then it's a good deal. What about bills while you're away? Do you still pay them or completely stop paying?
Yearly average will still be around 300-375 per month which is acceptable for this kind of apartment.
Bravo brate dobar apartman
It's a very nice apartment. Most of them are a disaster and when they have all the normal things an apartment should have , they call it "luxurious" 🙄 But hey, you can afford it, so why not. It's really a cool place and I love how it looks, the vibes, privacy, decor, everything is spot on.🎯 it's worth it, Charles 👌🏻
DO NOT lye. Serbia doesn’t have that much of garbage please how much Americans have . They have things what Americans have never seen in the life. They don’t have hoarders or homeless people how much America has. And most importantly they don’t have Biden 😂 as president. Thank goodness
Stan je super,nema sta,ali..bolje ti je da sebi kupis stan.Neka te prijatelji iz Beograda posavjetuju.Pozdrav iz Banja Luke!!
You really paid $600 for washing machine in bedroom? No way!
Get some nice bar chairs and you have a bar area at the kitchen-living room
🇷🇸❤️😍
Sorry, Gorenje is a Slovenian brand from Velenje (where I live). 🥰
Čarli my man..I must tease you a bit. You are Serbian now right? What would you do if military send you letter to fight for Serbia? :)
Is it possible to buy any Brand New flat apartment 3 room size with 50 000/- thousands USD?
After buying flat apartment government will give permanent resident permit?
Please where did you find an apartment
Awsome flat dude, very neo and industrial. Love it ! 600 $ ain’t that much compared to EU prices which basicly are empty when you leas them. I live in Copenhagen , and brother , let me tell you. You would have payed no less then 1200-1300 $ and a kidney for furniture, styling, location and that size - a month ! Congratz !
Yup not to mention that energy costs are much higher in EU now than in Serbia. I pay almost $400 a month just for the heating, water, electricity and internet, in a small 40sqm apartment, and additional 500 for the rent itself.
Since Russian rush in Serbia,600€ is not expensive anymore . Three is a lot things that changed in last eight months.
There's a crap ton of Russians/Ukrainians here in the US as well...
The owner lives in Prague ? Not too shabby, ey ? 😊
Oh yes the solar powered dryers! We are "greener" then EU.
You have english school across street if you need! And cop's central station around corner...😉
It's price , now.
It would have been about 400, year or two ago, but Russians moved here massively and price jumped up big time.
Actually, Gorenje is a Slovenian brand with production in Serbia
Gorenje is not anymore a Slovenian brand, but Chinese. In June 2018, Hisense (Chinese brand) acquired a 95.42% majority stake in the Gorenje Group.
@@slobodannovakovic3558 fair enough, still says a slovenian brand owned by henkel if you google it. My poiny was - not serbian, just made there.
I mean it’s a 50,50 hit because all the money you are wasting renting for 6 months you can save and rent out a house for cheaper and save as well to buy you’re own house,but for 600$ is a bit too much but it looks nice,having a big house is too much work so I understand.
Its ok price.
Get rid of the spots with half a lemon. 99% it's residue from our rather hard water.
Are you walking distance to pedestrian zone? Yeah its nice sure and there are some nice features I really thought the bathroom floor tiles were super fun and the kitchen has everything you might need but the place is tiny tiny and the rent is huge considering how tiny the apartment is with just a small bedroom and a bathroom sink in the entrance way. I really do not like the vanity in the entrance area she is lying. there was no room in the bathroom that is nonsense about the steam on the mirror. But if it makes you happy thats what matters. You should buy your own place there.
drago mi je da si dosao nazad,falio si nam
Liman 2
If she allows you to go away for 5 months and not pay then its technically 350$ a month. But even 600$ is cheap if you are making your money in US or online.
Actually if you find someone to rent your apartment out for those 5 months you could even have it completely for free lol.
Honestly the price is insane,everything else is average
$600 is way too much... You could buy yourself a house by now for all the months you paid for rents xd
True, but the market is high and it fits my budget perfectly. I'll have some properties soon.
@@ilovesrbija Nice to hear that, good luck brother
Yeah a house where, on a farm? Lol I think it's better to live in civilization 🤣
Nope, it is the worst time to buy a house, prices are crazy high. My apartment price went about 50% up compared to just a couple of years ago.
@@mrlds3202 look at the current state of the big cities in Serbia and other European/Western cities. Pollution, violent crime, overpopulation. I piss on your civilization!
Wellcome back
600$ yes as you said it is expensive. But charles my man with today standards you hit apartment on discount! There are people that target russians and IT people to get 1000e for rent and 1000e for deposit!
Looks like we're partying at Charles' place I'll buy the booze. And people, this is not overpriced, this is the price of luxury apartments in Novi Sad these days, it's a normal price for the value.
We have dryers, like single machine or combined with washer. Its not like Serbia dont have it xD just search it in any technology shop
No shit... They have them in Nigeria and all over, but it's not common. I have lived in 14 apartments and not one had one.
@@ilovesrbija jebiga xD In Novi Sad I had one as single machine (on top of a washer), in house its like a normal thing to have it too. I guess people forgot about it :D Bring back the dryers!!!
$1700 a month apartments in america look like this
Did you buy an owned apartment last year? Then why are you renting and paying for an apartment now?
Gorenje is not Serbian brand. I don't know why Serbian are buying it in the first place. There used to be a company in Serbia making appliances, Sever subotica, but it was destroyed when nato countries imposed sanctions on Serbia in 90s.
$600???? WAY TO MUCH for Novi Sad
Čarls stan je prelep ali preskup bolje tu sumu daj mesečno za kredit i kupi stan u svoje vlasništvo.
looks very very nice...it would be good if you had another bedroom, for example...then the price would be correct...but 600$ for this ? jesus
Lil expensive for Serbia , do you know the average salary there ? Extremely affordable despite anything. If you are millionaire in the US you’ll live like a Billionaire in Serbia 100%.
Pavle 1000x difference ? No chance. Maybe 3-4x if you compare it with 400k city in the USA
luxury
Charles, they robbed you. 600eur plus expenses for that?
That column near the entry door means that the owner has decided to demolish hallway walls. They left that concrete beam, because they couldn't demolish it.
But the walls around it could have been structural walls.
Idiot owners want to make 'studio apartment' experience in old apartments built in 60s-80s, and do that without asking experts or authorities,
and they often demolish structural walls and put to danger lives and property of other occupants of the building.
"industrial look" reeks on unfinished remodeling works. At some point someone said 'duck it'. We will go for "industrial look"
Those 50+ year old wooden windows cry for replacement.
.
Weeell, if you like this kind of design, then ok :/
You paying 600 a month is just contributing to the price hikes. Gentrification if you will...
You are free to pay whatever you like. The mass increase in wealthy Russians has pushed prices of cheapy, basic apartments up so take one
