#Belgrade #belgradeserbia #serbia
few b.s.-ts, first serbia (yugoslavia) was never part of soviet block, it was founder of the non-aligned block, that was between east and west, and it was not same kind of communism as in the soviet block it was actualy named "self-governing socialism". Its something closer to today's scandinavia than eastern block with elements of communism. Second, due to crisis and wars architecture arround city is a bit badly maintained but its fine, belgrade was never paris or prague, it was only a capital of a country that for centuries tried to be free in bloody wars and Belgrade never had a chance to develop in that way but for me and most of people it developed in good way and architecture that is simple and social that you were mentioning was no diferend from same kind of architecture that adorns for example afterwar germany, simple and social in 50s, 60s many refugees, industrialization, poverty, in second war serbs suffered lose of 20% people. Considering what we have survived in 20th century, i think we turned out preety well. Also sign for risking life is placed because there is a danger of falling out of bastion of fortress because there is no placed fence arround, people have to watch out.
Other issues fine, hope you have spent nice time here and that you will hopefully return again. You just scratched belgrade, there are so many other places you should have visit if you have time.
Thanks for the well written comment 🙏🏼🙏🏼 we appreciate the time you’ve taken to do that 🙌🏼
We did get a few things wrong on our first trip to Serbia! Sorry for that. We hope that we can come back next year and see more of Serbia. It seems that Serbians are quite outdoorsy people, in fact we met a man from Belgrade on a Greek island last week.
Have you heard about brutalistic
@@goranzekaj943 yes!! We know that one now 😉👌🏼
A very good description. 😀
I have never looked around Belgrade, however, I know Loznica well, and I was baptised there.
I love Serbia very much and I miss Serbia as though it was home for me, and it very nearly was. 🙏
@@brenhinbranko8614 thank you for watching 🙏🏼 happy that you enjoyed our tour!
We are not a post Soviet country. We are an ex communist country and we were a part of Yugoslavia, not the USSR
Oh my gosh, complete slip up there!! We still have so much to learn about the history, I hope we made that clear in our intros 😅🙏🏼
nek si im rekao poceli su me nervirati sa sovjetima :)
@@aleksandarvelickovic980 thanks mate 🙏🏼❤️ thanks for the kind words!
@@cjexplores Well If you moronic idiots really want to learn something, you must first give up yiur British arrogance.
@@capitosinora trying 😉😅😂
It’s not a Greek alphabet. It’s Cyrillic which is used in Serbia, Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, Macedonia, Bulgaria etc.
We had the pop up info onscreen! Did you see it? 😁
Serbia is beautiful! I was there a few years ago and I remember having a great night out on a boat on the river! And the countryside is magnificent... Sunflowers everywhere!
Thanks for watching! Yes we think we need to come back and find some of those camping locations the souvenir shop lady told us about 🤔😁👍🏼
@@cjexploresplease don't come back again, ever. Pearls are not for pigs. Just stay in your box
Belgrade is such a cool city. It looks like you had fantastic weather for exploring!
Such a surprise to us!! And the weather was beautiful and hot!! 😍
No harm done by not knowing much of about history, 😊 but just know that Serbia and Belgrade has a veeery long and complex history which is incredibely interesting and definitely worth learning a bit about. It really is a country like no other in Europe in that sense. Once you learn their history, you truly get a sense of a lot of things that you see and experience there. The best way is to talk to the locals. I hope to visit Belgrade again soon. It’s an amazing place.
Thanks DamjanKZ 🙏🏼❤️ we appreciate the kind words. We have learnt so much about the history in just making this video and we appreciate all the comments teaching us more!
Belgrade was under Turkish control for quite a long period of time, but it was never a majority Muslim city.
Serbia was never part of the Soviet Union countries. Where do you find these pearls?
Oops!!
Beautiful country ❤
Wonderful! 😍🙏🏼❤️
Belgrade is also central place of Vinca Civilisation - the oldest European Civilisation..
Wow 😯 thanks Peter!
Serbia is not a post-Soviet country, it was never in the Soviet Eastern Bloc. Serbia was part of Yugoslavia, which was the leader of the non-aligned countries. The Serbs support Russia, but that has nothing to do with the Soviet Union, but with today's Russia and Imperial Russia, which was a historical ally of the Kingdom of Serbia
Thank you for clearing that up! We were a bit confused with the difference between Russia and FSU 🤔
Unlike some of the other European capitals, Belgrade was bombed for days and completely destroyed by the Nazis in 1941, and then again by the Allied forces in 1945. That’s why there are only a handful of beautiful buildings from the 1930’s, and a ton of ugly communist buildings that were quickly built after WWII. It is a true metropolitan though with a ton of cool things for everyone. Do come again and explore the night life.
Hi Goran, yes we learned this after our visit. It seemed to be the target throughout both World Wars. In fact WW1 started with bombing from the Austro-Hungarian Alliance on Belgrade 😢 we feel for the Serbian people ❤️ thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment 🙏🏼
@CJ
Do you also feel sorry for the brutal NATO aggression in 1999?
Things that happened 100 years ago, no one remembers anymore, but most of us remember 1999.
@@russiawilldestroynatoscum2315 in 1999 I was 8 years old growing up in a small rural town in New Zealand. We didn’t care too much about what was happening in our own capital let alone what was going off in Eastern Europe!
Très juste. Merci de le rappeler !
One constructive critic...It's good that you said that you don't know a lot about Serbia because it's visible from things you say or conclude in the video. Nothing wrong in that but maybe that you keep away from conclusions especially without deeper understanding of the past-current political cultural and social situation. So your own experience is the only thing I would stick to because it's best thing you can give to your viewers. Or if you want to get more layered insight investigate, research and talk to relevant locals to help you get a more broadher overlook to present more accuratly and objectively. Good luck in your future travel reports.
Thank you Croat, very constructive and helpful 🙏🏼❤️ we are still discovering ourselves, our style and what we aim to achieve with our channel 😊 we will take your advice on board gladly 🙌🏼
Of course, they talking about their experience! Are you expecting them to talk about Jasenovac?!

❤@@cjexplores
Always impressed with the videos you both produce! I will consider Serbia next!
Wooo 🥳 🙏🏼❤️
We are not post Soviet country!
We got that now 😅🙌🏼
Welcome to Serbia, dear friends! Thank you for visiting our beautiful country. I'd like to wish you a nice time in Serbia.
You're always welcome to visit. I hope you'll visit us again.
Greetings from Novi Sad, Serbia. Stay healthy and have a nice day!
Thank you for watching our video 🥰 we did have a lovely time in Serbia, thank you for that! You take care of yourself 🙌🏼❤️
@@cjexplores I just wish for you to visit Serbia again, trust me, Serbia is a hidden gem in terms of tourism. I'm sure next time when you visit Serbia, you'll like it even more than before. 🥰
What does Serbia have to do with the Soviets?
For something to be post-Soviet, that something should have previously been Soviet in the first place.
For your information, the former Yugoslavia (of which Serbia was a part) was on the verge of war with the Soviets. In fact, the former Yugoslavia was de facto part of NATO through agreements with Greece and Turkey until 1974.
Thanks Nneesskkee! Clearly we never knew 😅
Interesting vlog. Iam watching it now. Thankyou 🙏❤️
Thanks Pinky! Glad you’re enjoying it 😊
Serbia is NOT post-soviet country, because it was never part of Soviet union, nor Warsaw pact, nor eastern bloc! At Least you should know basic fact like that. So you lost me in a first sentence.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Being brought up in New Zealand we were never really taught much history from that era. It might be a basic fact to some but clearly not to all 😅
@@cjexplores That's why we have a thing called Google! 😀
@@cjexplores Otherwise it was a nice video. I've watched it anyway. 🙂
@@BorisTeodosijevic yes. We admit, we should have done better!! It may sound stupid to you, but before this trip I didn’t think there was any difference between a Soviet country and a communist country. We travel to learn and in this case we have learned a lot!
@@cjexplores That is like saying "there is no difference between USA and capitalist country" - sounds silly, right? And that really should be a basic fact, no matter where you come from. 😉
Good city market and u take lunch u enjoying juse and foods everything nice fotruse old good where u take dinner nice place totally good city . Good video
Serbia is not post soviet country. You must have respect for one of the oldest city in Europe and learn his history before do it this reportage.
We have learnt a lot of facts about Belgrade when we visited. Unfortunately this was not one of them 😅 forgive us 🙏🏼
Bravo❤❤❤❤
Thanks Nikolavkovic 😊
Not post Soviet, nothing to do with USSR actually the only neutral country in Europe other than Swiss in cold war years
Thanks Mirsad 😊🙏🏼❤️
And happy to see you had a nice staying in Serbia

Post Soviet block? Please read little bit about country you are planing to visit.
We never really planned to visit Serbia, it was just a place to stop on the way to Turkey 😅 we learned a lot when we visited though! Clearly not enough 😂
Most of the information said in this video was incorrect, but you're foreigners, I don't know everything about the countries I go traveling to, so it's okay. I see a lot of people were triggered by the soviet comments. 😅
When it comes to the Serbian language, it's as similar to Russian as it is to Polish or Czech and that's because all Slavic languages are related, the most in fact out of all Indo-European language groups.
I would recommend to vegans to ask for 'posno' options when they visit. The foods we eat for lent and fast do not contain animal products. The vegan restaurants are a newer phenomenon and they tend to be a bit more pricey, while 'posno' has existed for centuries and is usually on the cheap side. It's also a good way to try the local and traditional dishes for vegans.
You've been only to one part of the city. Belgrade is actually very big (for context, it's exactly a half of Singapore) and there was a looooooot more to explore and every part is different. But hey, that just means you'll have more to see if you ever come again!
I hope you've had a nice time in Belgrade! 🥰
Awww thanks FireCat! Great tips there. And thank you for being kind to us, we did cop a lot of heat 😂 yes, we actually found out more about Belgrade after we left than when we were there, we heard it was the party capital of Europe!?
@@cjexplores Yup, many people refer to it as “Berlin of the Balkans” because of it’s large and vibrant techno scene. But there are clubs for everyone, there’s jazz, rock, kpop, disco, metal, pop, Balkan turbo folk and pop, traditional music, etc.
During summer people mostly like to party “splav” those are the hundreds and hundreds of boats on the Sava and Danube rives. During winter old factories and industrial buildings turned into clubs are popular.
And, if you’d like to experience the traditional way of partying, you can always go to a kafana at night and have a fun time with all the cheerful people and musicians playing traditional music.
In Novi Sad, 30min by fast train north from Belgrade, there is a music festival called Exit that takes place on the Petrovaradin fortress every July and it was voted the best European festival multiple times!
An American friend of mine said it the best: “people here seem to work to live, and not live to work”. So yeah, we really like to have fun and celebrate many different things here.
But of course, if you don’t like to go to big parties, there are “calmer” variations of night life available everywhere, Belgrade is truly diverse and young people from all parts of Balkan come here to have some fun.
There are also many museums, monuments, archeological sites, recreational spaces, etc. Belgrade is not only one of the oldest constantly inhibited city in Europe, but in whole of the world, so there’s a lot to see and do, and every part is unique. To truly experience it’s charm you need a local to show you places, because I can see how it may look underwhelming to foreigners just walking around the center and being confused why people rave about the city so much! 😅
@@FireGriffon wow 🤩 so much to take in. It definitely sounds like we needed a tour guide. We should have got one really. Next time, we will make sure we get a local to show us around properly! It sounds like there is so much to see and do and we may have just wandered right on past so many chances to see the real Belgrade!!
I have been waiting for sth off the charts wow
🤩🤩🤩 thanks for the constant support Mohamed 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Great video 👍 this all drone footage you have made your own?
Thanks for watching! Yeah, it was such an interesting place to explore ☺️
You have to go to Zemun, across the river Sava, which is part of Belgrade. It is the best place for turists to visit, walk, eat in restaurants, and enjoy the music.
Oh really?! We meet a man from Belgrade while we were on the Greek Islands and he said that we completely missed the wild party scene that Belgrade has. Have you ever partied here?? 🎉
@@cjexplores Belgrade has been voted party capital of the Europe. No matter the day of the week clubs on the river that we call "splav" or "splavovi"(plural) are open till about 4-5am, there is something for everyone there
@@r4v3n62 oh wow, we never knew!! I guess that shows how much we go out 😂
@@cjexplores 😁
Nice video. I will not talk about USSR as I believe people did it. Interesting fact aboutthe War island as it is called in the center of the Danube is that it has many indigeneos sorts of birds nesting there so that is why it is not built on, yet at the sommer there are many people living there. Belgrade is one of the oldest cities in Europe and its eclectic architecture is mark of ages passed over Belgrade. Many cultures came and gone but Belgrade welcomes everibody, and all lieve a mark in Blegrade. Celts, Romans, Bysantine, Huns, Hungarians, Bulgarians, Germans and Slavs that are now Serbs came and made Belgrade a beautifull place. Paris is a city of light, Rome is a city of history, Belgrade is a city of memories, parties and stories. And finally yes, Rona went like nothing here. Hardship is no news for Serbs as more or less each generation of people has had a war.
Thanks for your comment and insight Nenad 🙏🏼❤️ much appreciated!
Amazing!, I love the way you guys made this video. 😊
I was wondering if you could tell me which app do you use for this video editing.
Hi! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼❤️ we use Premiere Pro and after effects for the graphics 😊
@@cjexplores Thanks!😊
That's called internet knowledge...
And bravo, you found caffe!
Take everything we say with a pinch of salt 😉
Serbia was not a soviet country or affiliated with the USSR. No hate but Serbia is definitely one of the countries where it is not a destination for vegan food. Mostly meats and dairy is eaten there.
Thanks D2B 🙏🏼 we have to say that we ate pretty damn well in Belgrade! Now Bulgaria, that was another question 😂
The region you are in has no Soviet history, except for a couple of battles from WWII in which the Soviets participated with the permission of the authorities in Yugoslavia, after which they left this territory and never returned.
I live in Serbia,Belgrade,Ripanj (Ripañ) you should visit!❤️
What’s exciting to do there?? 😁
@@cjexplores omg you replyed,it ia a small town,no buildings just village vibe,nature is ao beutifal,Belgrade is right there if you need something,and it is apsoulutly gorgeus. If something is spellt wrong i am sorry bc i do not know english that much!❤️👀🙂
Hallo nice to see you in videos again it watch great you were such beautiful country a long you have visited you are lucky to see real world although many country it has experience in life help you to understand more all the ways good luck both of you thanks.
Yes it’s been a little while hasn’t it!? Thanks for watching. We learnt a lot while visiting Serbia and continue to learn about it even now 😁🙏🏼❤️
Sta ste ih napali dal smo bili sovjetski savez Ili ne ...dolaze sa zapada, mladi su I uopste ih to ne interesuje..njima je sve to isto .video je lep I ljudi su pozitivno iznenadjeni ..mada svi su oni pozitivno iznenadjeni ..pitaj boga sa kakvim predrasudama dolaze

Зато и пролази антируска хистерија у нато земљама, јер су незаинтересовани за истину, него верују својим империјалним владама!
Тако исто је пролазила и антисрпска хистерија 90-их!
Kada se ulazi u neciju zemlju ne ponasa se nadmeno. Sa toliko samopouzdanja su prosuli nevidjeno neznanje. Nekoliko puta sam gledala pocetak videa i ne mogu da verujem sta su izgovorili. Ako ih vec to ne interesuje, kako vi kazete, onda ovakve ofrlje reportaze ne treba ni da rade.
A vidim da se i ne potresaju mnogo sta mi mislimo. Ajmo vi i ja kod njih tamo i da pricamo gluposti i ponasamo se kao kabadahije. Nema smisla. Ne ide.
Pricas gluposti! Kako bi bilo da neko od nas njihovu zemlju tretira kao post-Nacisticku? Biti glup i neinformisan je , kao, OK?!
Serbia is not post soviet country, it ex socialist and ex Yugoslavia country. We have never been under soviet rule and don't have nothing with USSR.
Thanks for your comment, you, as well as many others have educated us sufficiently on this matter 😅😅😅
What post soviet country? What are you talking about? Yugoslavia/Serbia was country between two blocks. Super safe, with excellent free health care and education.
Did you read the other comments below? 😅😅😅
We were not Soviet - they were, actually, the enemy. The language is VERY different, only the alphabet is the same,as is in Bulgaria, Greece,etc. You have TOTALLY wrong idea. Serbia was s monarchy until the end of the second world war. Tito was forced upon Serbia and anyone who opposed him ended in a bad way. Tito was a "leftist" but completely different from Soviets. Our royal family is closely related to the British royal family.
Thanks for helping out with the information Snežana 🙌🏼😂 we have learnt a lot about the eastern bloc since visiting!
@@cjexplores But Yugoslavia was not Eastern block 😀
love your video from india
Thank you Desi Traveller ❤️🙏🏼
Belgrade has this kind of architecture because of countless wars and destruction.
We touched on this 😉
Hola, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedan venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfruten de la solidaridad, amabilidad, y fraternidad para con la gente que no gusta de la guerra y sus consecuencias, aqui podrán disfrutar mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos,
felicidades por sus vídeos y que ustedes y los suyos esten bien, sean bienvenidos siempre.
Hi Javier!! Thanks a lot for your lovely message. We hope to visit Peru someday! It would be a dream come true 😊
Hi. I don't think you're right about Belgrade as a condensed city. There are so many urban areas with specific names, such as Banovo Brdo, Miljakovac, Zarkovo, Rakovica, Vidikovac, Zeleznik, etc., that you can't see because of the terrain. In other words, some 20km from the center are residential areas, some old, and some build after WWII. Regards
Thanks marsupiotupak 🙏🏼 I guess there is a lot more to explore in Belgrade than we had time for!
How are we post Soviet?
You’re post communist right? 😬
0:18 small correction, Serbia are not POST-SOVIET country(post soviet countries are: Bulgaria, ROmania, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbeijan, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia). SERBIA, Bosnia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Croatia and Slovenia are POST-YUGOSLAV countries, not POST-SOVIET.
02:33 we do not have KHRUSHCHYOVKA buildings in Serbia, we have SOCIAL REALISM and MODERNISM architecture in Belgrade, it is architecture typical for former Yugoslavia states.
Yep, we have STRONG connections with Russia, thats true 100%.
Thanks for your correction ❤️🙏🏼👌🏼
@@cjexplores 🙂👍
Serbia was not Soviet. They did not have Khrushchevkas, which is not a "commie block" (where on earth did you find such a crude and misleading translation?) but is a nickname for temporary housing taken from the name of the Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev... Really, really recommend a nice editing team for the "facts" you cite because promoting misinformation is never a good idea, especially when it concerns the history and culture of an entire nation. Otherwise, very pretty and well-made video, thank you.
Hi Sveta, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts 🙏🏼 we wish we got this right the first time round but unfortunately we missed by a long shot! We have learned a lot however and we have to say thank you to everyone who has informed us here on TH-cam ❤️
If you would like to explore more vegan stuff, I recommend you visiting Serbia during lent seasons, like Great lent or Christmas lent, since many dishes on many days should not contain oil let alone any animal product (apart from maybe honey). And many dishes would during that period would suit fine all the vegans. And another plus alcohol is also forbidden during that time. Many restaurants or bakeries would have these "lent options" in their menu which is essentially vegan dishes or pastries.
Oh wow! What a fantastic recommendation, thank you for the tip! 😁🙏🏼❤️
Those building are our history 😁
Yes! And should not be forgotten! 🙏🏼❤️
Wooow, you are so obsessed with Soviet Union and Russia that you are seeing it everywhere.
🤣🤣🤣🙈 we learned a lot after this video was uploded
Krakow next?
No, unfortunately not. We have visited before, way back in 2013/14! Maybe we will come back to Europe next year 😉 we still have a lot of videos to release from our summer adventures too 🙌🏼

We learn on the job 🤣🤦♂️
@@cjexplores Fair enough, Thousands of people were sent to jails or even lost their lives for being pro soviet, back then. I would say that Belgrade, Serbia and Yugoslavia were anti soviet at least. Country back in the Socialist age (1945-1990) was more inclined to the west than to the east.

Thanks Dejan, we are constantly being educated with this video 🙏🏼
post soviet country??!!! Serbia don't have nothing with SSSR, please don't say like a that and language is not same, just look a like. For example Dutch(Holland) and German difference.

Great vlog! Im visiting Belgrade bec of your vlog. Thanks
@@pinayakoooo37 thanks for the support 🙏🏼❤️🥰 hope you have a wonderful time! Ps don’t miss the party scene if that’s your thing, we heard it’s the best in Europe!
😡
POST SOVIET!!! What??? I turn you OFF WITHIN 10sec..bye
🙈
..Vegans..
How do you know someone’s a vegan?
@@cjexplores There's not that many reasons why someone would eat specifically vegan food. What's the point of that question? Be whatever you want to and stand behind it. We have veggie options, but it's a land of meatlovers and we're very direct
@@Lazarus_ReSpawn I was trying to line up a joke 😅 no worries dude ✌🏼
@@cjexplores Understand that 60% of Serbia will look at vegans as entitled spoiled snobs. Majority of people grew up knowing hardship and shortage, and a luxury to be carefree and picky about your food looks bad.
@@Lazarus_ReSpawn I get it. We have so much to be thankful for. Thanks for reminding us Lazarus 🙏🏼
very ugly city, especially with those graffitis...
TROLL SPOTTED 🤣
@@cjexplores You said something similar in the video lol....Btw, I live here, I am not a troll, just objective...
@@Michelasdissapointmentandanger fair call! 🤣
Greetings. Good things about Serbs that we are friendly nation and very hospitable. Serbia is very safe country like Switzerland, with no dangerous areas. But the real situation in my country is not good and I would honestly not recommend anyone to visit and live in Serbia. Poverty, unemployment and corruption is widespread, average salary is 400 euros. The infrastructure is bad, the architecture is socialist, and there is garbage everywhere in the street and nature. People are mostly depressing and nervous. Every year, 50,000 people leave this country because of bad life and chaos.
We are so sorry to hear you feel this way ❤️ like we mentioned in the video Serbs are a strong adaptable people, you have gone through a lot and I’m sure the sun will shine again 🙏🏼❤️ all the best from us, Cory and Char
@@cjexplores he is a troll, I've seen this exact comment on many videos about Serbia
@@r4v3n62 weird way to troll 🤔 thanks anyway 😂
@@r4v3n62 upravo sam krenuo da i ja napisem komentar o njemu, i videh da si ti napisao, takodje sam i ja video da na drugim mestima ostavlja isti komentar sa istim tekstom(kopi-paste)
@@danijelarandjelovic614 sve sto je one reko, sto ti kazes je copy-paste, je istina. Samo budala zivi u srbiju ako ima druge opcije.
Serbians and Russians are the same people.. Nothing to do with media. We simply share the same origin, soul and tradition (religion)..
It is obvious you have zero clue.
We had never visited before and it’s a ‘first impressions vlog’ we didn’t claim it be a complete guide. We read the wrong information online about it’s soviet history - since we realised our mistake we’ve read that it’s big misconception and it’s not post soviet. We apologise.
Serbia was never part of Soviet Union. But connections to Russia are based on Slavic brotherhood, Orthodox church and very old historic connection. In addition to WWI, WWII and recent history.
@@brankalazarevic9610 thanks Branka 🙏🏼 we have another video from the Slavic states coming soon. Hopefully we get this one right 😅
It was never a soviet city! Mixing Yugoslavia and USSR is like mixing USA to Mexico.
A monumental error on our part 😅 Thanks for being the 8000th person to point this out 😅
@@cjexplores for the 8000th time, you are welcome 😊
😍😍💕💕😍😍💕💕😍😍
Thanks Ling Ling ☺️🙏🏼❤️
most of your preknowledge of Srebia is wery wrong. But welcome to Serbia😀😀😀😀
😅 thanks for going easy on us! We learnt a lot since our visit 😁
Post Soviet country are you normal?
Clearly not! 😂
first of all Belgrade is not post Soviet city. Srerbia was never in Soviet world
Cheers dude 👌🏼
"Post Soviet city" 😂😂😂
🙈
You 2 have no idea !!Serbia was never ever a former soviet country , nir is the language the same .Serbia was an open border communist country , people had more freedom than most countries in the world ! Dont spread crap about countries you have no idea about please!
Cheers Robi, learning a lot from the comments here 😂🙌🏼
You really don't know much about Serbia, but you have no idea. So you better learn something before you start commenting. And when you don't know anything, then it's easiest to describe only what you see and nothing more.
Cheers borislav, appreciate your thoughts 🙏🏼
