As a Romanian I have nothing but respect for our Serbian neighbors. My city of Timisoara has lots of ties with Vrsac, Belgrade, Zrenjanin and Novi Sad. We like it a lot visiting or travelling trough Serbia, also I have a couple of Serbian friends that live in my hometown and they're awesome.
We have found that the people in the Balkans, from Albania, Montenegro, Romania, and now Serbia have been so kind and enjoyable to be around. It has been refreshing!🍻
Romanian and Serbs do have lots of respect between us. Although the languages have almost nothing in common, the religion and customs are almost identical. I've always been helped out by Serbs whilst over there, without even asking for it 😂 They are definitely our most loved neighbors.
Thank you for presenting Belgrade in such a beautiful way . And thank you dear neighbors from Romania for the nice comments ❤ Best regards and many nice travels!
Welcome to Serbia, dear friends! I'm really glad you liked Belgrade as a city and Serbia as a country. I hope you will visit us again. Greetings from Novi Sad, Serbia. Stay healthy and have a nice day
@Brian and Carrie You have to visit Novi Sad next time. I'm sure you'll like it very much. Maybe, even more than Belgrade.😉 Belgrade is the capital city, but NS has something special.😉 Big hug from Serbia!❤️
@@zoranamuric6827 Totally agreed! Novi Sad is also a capital of culture 2022. The biggest global achievement ever made, if you ask me. Greetings from Novi Sad, Zorana.
Thank you, Tomislav. We only wish we had more time to explore the countryside and the rest of Serbia. Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment! Cheers!!🍻
Thanks for the tour of Belgrade, Serbia. Truly a beautiful, clean, and an awesome modern city and an undiscovered Gem. The church, the square in front of it, and overall every part of the city is so pretty and well kept and maintained. Your videos and coverage are at a new level. Cheers!
Belgrade ❤️ You've really chosen a cool place to visit. Also if you could go to a basketball or football game, Partizan or Crvena Zvezda, I think that you would be impressed. A tip from your faithful Romanian 😅
We have been talking about going to a football game since we started our travels. We still haven't done it but plan to soon. Thank you for being our faithful Romanian 😅 We really appreciate the support!! Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie You guys, you would be truly shocked if not scared for your life if you went to a basketball game with that type of cheering...Especially,city derby between Partizan and Red Star(Crvena zvezda) But,it actually sounds worse than it actually is... I took some foreign friends to those games for over 20 years now, and they are still talking about their adrenaline levels to this day, with a huge grin on they faces
As a serb living in Spain, I have discovered your channel on video with pros and cons of Alicante. I am happy to see you visiting my country and it seems like you enjoyed it as well!
Hi, Stefan. We did enjoy Belgrade, we wish we had more time to explore the rest of Serbia. We will be back in the Balkans soon enough to see all that we have missed. Thank you for watching our channel!! We love Alicante by the way!! Cheers!!!🍻
Another thing about the fortress that many tourists don't know about is they have a really nice zoo. It isn't free but is very reasonably priced. I think I paid like 5 dinar. Belgrade, one of my favorite destinations ❤❤❤
Hello. I am from Subotica, Serbia. Thank you so much for this beautiful video. It is a wonderful feeling to hear such an nice impression of my country. I have to mention, the nature is breathtaking on the lowlands as well as the mountain area. I wish you all the best.
Great video, too short as usual :)) Belgrade is one of my favorite cities, it's the closest capital and big city to Timisoara where I live. Coming from a relatively small city I'm not used to the traffic in Belgrade, but as long as I use public transport things are fine. Cheers!
Finally got to Belgrade last month...by far the nicest people and what a wonderful underrated city. I cannot wait to go back and explore more of the city and the rest of Serbia.
Hello Brian and Carrie! It's nice to see you again enjoying the sights and sounds of another beautiful city! You decided wisely to visit our good neighbors south of the Danube.. The city looks amazing, so do you and the craft beers 😃 Cheers again 🍻
Ate at the same restaurant (Old Herzegovina) about three weeks ago when we visited Serbia from South Africa. The best way to eat food in Serbia is to always share the meals :) Had a wonderful time in Belgrade, Nis and Novi Sad! If you still there try Belgrade Urban Distillery, Dogma, Dockers, Kabinet or Gvint.
@@BrianandCarrie Thank you! People like you, give us, Serbs, the chance to find back our trust and sympathy for Americans and to continue to heal from the history of US bombing our people in 1999. Thank you again for visiting my Belgrade and come back again. I wish you all the best for the future🍀🤗🥰.
I never would have imagined Belgrade like this. Thanks for opening up so much of the world to us. I noticed the public fountain and it occurred to me: as travelers, what’s your approach to drinking water?
Beer is like 98% water, right? There are a few places where we had to buy bottled water, Greece and Albania. But bottled water is VERY cheap. If I remember correctly, it was about .23 cents a Liter. Cheers!!!🍻
It is safe to drink water in Belgrade from public fontains. Water is 100% clean. There are people, probably in every city around the world, who claim that altho water is clean, the pipes are a few decades old so it is healthier to drink water bought from the shop. But that water is also full of additives and it stays on the shelf for days, so its hardly fresh. In my opinion, if you cant have spring water, Belgrade public water is second best :) Cheers!

I don't know if it's available at the moment, but in the St.Sava temple there is a sub-level which is magnificent. It was available to the public when I visited, I don't know if it still is... but is way more magnificent than upstairs. I hope you can get to it, if you haven't already.
Wonderful video! Just to share about the Belgrade waterfront - it used to be a slightly dilapidated but charming, bohemian part of town (Sava Mala) where artists would exhibit and perform and there were many old beautiful buildings. Then it was bought by Saudi’s to build those fancy modern buildings that most Belgraders can’t afford… hence the controversy!
We actually preferred the old part of the city with the trees lining the streets. Bars and restaurants, shopping, much better than the high-end waterfront in our opinion. Thank you for watching and commenting, Natasha. ❤
Sending so much love to you guys. The world needs more people like you❤ P.S. Gunners was a pro tip! Awesome pub - I bring all my non-Serbian friends there!😂
2:00 - Brian, you are so right. Can't tell you how much fun I've had communicating across a language divide. So many little triumphs along the way when you both realize you've really communicated!
We were so happy we had the opportunity to visit Belgrade after being in Romania for a few months. If you haven't watched those videos you can check our Romania Playlist here: th-cam.com/play/PLNmogcEYSgyLoKKrWTvB9Kssz5kVffIKi.html
Hello from Belgrade 🙂 Welcome to us always. Belgrade has a lot of great places, but you need to know Belgrade and its surroundings. I lived in Paris and other cities. It's not that Belgrade is my city, but I wouldn't change it for any other city. Thank you and be wel l💚
You are the first (and only) vloggers who make me feel as if I joined you on your trips, even though I am in my humble living room - and that is really something … million congratulations and thanks.
Nice people, thenks for present future turist may city Belgrade and Whaterfront city, Sava promenade, restorans, cafe bars, old and new, welcome alweys in Serbia state 🇷🇸, Belgrade Whaterfront city, Europe 🇪🇺, ciao and god bay, love ❤️and peace☮️ with you✝️🇷🇸
Last year i went to Belgrade with a group of friends. For the first time in my life, I was in shock over how happy i was. I remember one of my last nights in the cabaret club Lafayette, i was standing there looking at everything around me and thinking to myself, is this the happiest day of my life? Going back this year for sure. Just to clarify it wasnt the one party night that made me so happy it was the whole trip. For example, people where so kind. A lady was selling some homemade traditional spirits on the street near skadarlija and i did not have enough cash on me for a bottle and some tissues so she gave me some free tissues and let me go with the bottle, told me i could come back with the money another time. It was so unreal to be treated like a decent human being by a stranger from the beginning. Then i went down to the Docks to see if i could train with some of serbias best Crossfit champions which i've seen a lot on instagram. And low and behold they where there and welcomed me to come train with them?! Although, their training started at like 6 in the morning... Which i missed due to being a bit too hungover. If i would have stayed longer maybe i would have a few sober days for training 😅
I hope you felt our hospitality and kindness to all foreigners. You should visit Ada Ciganlija instead of Belgrade waterfront(ada - river island). You are allways welcome
Thank you, Nicole. We try to make videos that we would like to watch ourselves and try something new as often as we can. Thank you for the feedback, it is very much appreciated. Cheers!!!🍻
Hello Brian and Carrie! Your energy is something else. I really enjoyed the video and how you presented everything in it. Whichever place you visit i hope you have a blast!! Stay safe and all the best
Well, food and nightlife are at the top of the list, what Belgrade have to offer. The history, art and architecture are next in line. You missed a lot of places worth visiting. Ada Ciganlija is one of them.
We hope to get to Dublin as soon as we can afford it!!! 🙄Ireland is close to the top of our bucket list so eventually we will be there. Thank you for watching!! Cheers!!!🍻
Watch your videos and enjoy them, I see when they are posted but not sure if that’s when you were there . Like knowing for sure when / what month you were there. Keep up the great work ,thanks!
Belgrade🇷🇸💪!Other cities also nice to visit.Recommend Serbian lakes and mountains.Such a peaceful places,pure nature and greate,greate domestic food!People are fantastic,no fake smile like in croatia.You just need to come and feel positive energy.
We really wish that we had more time in Serbia. We had already booked our accommodations elsewhere and wish that we hadn't. We will return one day!! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Cheers!!🍻
My city - born and raised. So proud of my people. Loving, welcoming and resilient. They missed Ski Staza in Košutnjak park. Up on the hill with a magnificent view on the whole city. They also missed Zemun! Austro- Hangarian fortress and “Zemunski Key”….. a week is not enough to visit all things in Belgrade. Ah!!! Miss it!
Waw i love that church !! Is beautiful ,we have something similar now. We build a catedral ,the bigest orthodox catredal ,it' s near Palace of Parlamient. You didn' t visit it when you where here in Romania. That catedral you can view from the space just like Palace off Parlamient. Why? Becose when our King Michael died the royals family from Europe came for his funeral ( is on you tube) and they didn' t have enought room for them, so the highest priest ,Priest Daniel ( the cheef of ortodox church ) said this is need it! But the ppl are not happy becose that catedral cost us sooo much and we need that money for schools, hospitals ,but they built it anyway. I saw it on google i didn' t go, but i saw it' s huge, really huge. 😔
Really digging your videos, very simple but awesome info, nothing like current boots on the ground to get inspired by. We are planning to start traveling again which we did during COVID for a year so thanks for loads of honest info... Would love more links posted of the current countries 😂 can you post the link for the car service you used? I think it was called simpli city but I can't seem to find it anywhere online. Anyway, enjoy your travels!
Thank you, Amy and Bryon! We link as much as we can, and we are always trying to give as much information as we can. Here is the link! Highly suggest!! Cheers!!!🍻 www.transportbudapesta.ro/
We love all the farmer's markets that we have found. Everything is organic and inexpensive! In the states, we have to pay extra for organic! Makes you wonder why? Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!! Cheers!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie same in Canada We are getting season vegetable local but it’s just not the same Out off season are truck from USA or Mexico and that’s sucks. Price and quality. O well fishing is good here. Lol. All the best in your travel
YES!! We are from Bellingham WA. and fish and crab often. Some of our best fishing has been off north Vancouver Island in Simoon Sound. Beautiful country!!
@@BrianandCarrie I am in Ontario we have good fish around me couple hours driving. Vancouver is 5 hours flight. So many times I tried to explain people from Europe how big is Canada and USA. Landmass In Europe for hour or less you can get from country to country and enjoy in diversity in no time. However travelling Europe is very nice experience. How long you guys stay in Balkan. Maybe I can recommend few sites and cities if you are interested to visit them
Thank you for a great Serbian video. Hope that you have enjoyed your stay as much as I got impression from your vblog. Serbia is a beautiful country with lots of rich history. People are welcoming, passionate, honest and friendly. If you ever visit again try visiting some of the following sites: "Golubac Fortress", "Vinca Belo Brdo" archeological museum, Gamzigrad-Romuliana, Monasteries on Fruska Gora (near city of Novi Sad), Lepenski vir archeological site (very famous), Vrnjacka Banja (hot springs), Zlatibor mountain (has longest gondola ride in the world - 9km) , Kopaonik mountain, Avala, city of Nis (Birth city of Constantine the Great. Historians claim that 17 Roman Emperors were born on modern day Serbian territory) and so on... Have a great travel where ever you go next and upcoming holiday season!
Thank you for subscribing, Paul! We would love to travel across the US but we can't afford it! 😀 We will be home for the holidays and we will be doing a video of our hometown of Bellingham, WA. Thank you again for joining our channel! Cheers!!!🍻
Hi, Irena. Our mistake by not adding that information to the video. We tried to find the information online but haven't had any luck. Sorry, we can't help you. ☹
This used to be a great city when Jelen beer in the hotel Moscow was 0.5eur, espresso 0.25eur, and monthly rent was 50eur. Then in 2000 cryptojewea came and increased prices 10 times
Thanks for all the great videos. One question when you guys fly from country to country do you purchase one way tickets. Have you had any issues entering a new country with a one way ticket. I know that some countries might require and exit ticket in order to come into it. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks and keep up the excellent documentaries.
Most countries do not require an onward ticket. However, we are flying to Thailand in January, and they do. We will have to show this at customs when entering. We are going to do a video in the coming weeks about how we travel, where we decide to go, and the entire process from start to finish. Maybe that will answer any questions and be helpful. Thank you for watching! Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie That would be fantastic; if you can outline the planning process with emphasis on the airfare side it will help. Congrats on the newspaper post. Keep up with all the good videos and safe travels.
Belgrade is safe for US citizens. We were there for 5 days and didn't have any problems. Just keep a low profile and you'll be fine. There is a bus but the cost to fly was very inexpensive, so we chose to fly. Thank you for watching! Cheers!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie since I am a US citizen, and I am staying at sarajevo I could take a plane back and forth from sarajevo to belgrade to spend the whole day in belgrade and come back to sarajevo in the same day without any problem since I'm in sarajevo

I never would have imagined Belgrade like this. Thanks for opening up so much of the world to us. I noticed the public fountain and it occurred to me: as travelers, what’s your approach to drinking water?
Acknowledging that “when in doubt, just drink beer” is a valid strategy.
Beer is like 98% water, right? There are a few places where we had to buy bottled water, Greece and Albania. But bottled water is VERY cheap. If I remember correctly, it was about .23 cents a Liter.

We actually preferred the old part of the city with the trees lining the streets. Bars and restaurants, shopping, much better than the high-end waterfront in our opinion. Thank you for watching and commenting, Natasha. ❤
Serbia's answer to Familia Sagrada... Nice
Sending so much love to you guys. The world needs more people like you❤
P.S. Gunners was a pro tip! Awesome pub - I bring all my non-Serbian friends there!😂
Thank you so much for the kind words Aenit, that means a lot to us.
Cheers!!🍻
2:00 - Brian, you are so right. Can't tell you how much fun I've had communicating across a language divide. So many little triumphs along the way when you both realize you've really communicated!
We were so happy we had the opportunity to visit Belgrade after being in Romania for a few months. If you haven't watched those videos you can check our Romania Playlist here: th-cam.com/play/PLNmogcEYSgyLoKKrWTvB9Kssz5kVffIKi.html
I wish you all the best in your life and have fun in Serbia.
Thank you, Miroljub. We wish we had had more time. We will have to return sometime and see the rest of Serbia.
Thank you for watching!
Cheers!!🍻
Hello from Belgrade 🙂
Welcome to us always. Belgrade has a lot of great places, but you need to know Belgrade and its surroundings. I lived in Paris and other cities. It's not that Belgrade is my city, but I wouldn't change it for any other city. Thank you and be wel l💚
We only wish that we had more time to see everything that we missed. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Cheers!!🍻
You are the first (and only) vloggers who make me feel as if I joined you on your trips, even though I am in my humble living room - and that is really something … million congratulations and thanks.
Thanks from a Serbian from miami:)
Hello..so glad you liked Belgrade 🙂. You need to come in Novi Sad, Sremski Karlovci and Subotica 💖. You are very welcome ❤️😘
Thank you, Jelena. We will be back someday!!
Cheers!!🍻
Don;t miss to visit Djokovic's tennis center and hotel. One day I wanna visit that.
Belgrade. I love to visit because of history and the Vuvic and his Volg.
You should have also checked out the Crypt in St Sava Church, very worthwhile seeing.
We don't know how we missed that!! We will be back someday!!
Cheers!!🍻

Thank you so much!!♥
Last year i went to Belgrade with a group of friends. For the first time in my life, I was in shock over how happy i was. I remember one of my last nights in the cabaret club Lafayette, i was standing there looking at everything around me and thinking to myself, is this the happiest day of my life?
Going back this year for sure.
Just to clarify it wasnt the one party night that made me so happy it was the whole trip.
For example, people where so kind. A lady was selling some homemade traditional spirits on the street near skadarlija and i did not have enough cash on me for a bottle and some tissues so she gave me some free tissues and let me go with the bottle, told me i could come back with the money another time.
It was so unreal to be treated like a decent human being by a stranger from the beginning.
Then i went down to the Docks to see if i could train with some of serbias best Crossfit champions which i've seen a lot on instagram.
And low and behold they where there and welcomed me to come train with them?! Although, their training started at like 6 in the morning... Which i missed due to being a bit too hungover. If i would have stayed longer maybe i would have a few sober days for training 😅
I hope you felt our hospitality and kindness to all foreigners. You should visit Ada Ciganlija instead of Belgrade waterfront(ada - river island). You are allways welcome
Thank you so much!!
Cheers!!!🍻
Thank you for this wonderful video of Belgrade ❤️
Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
The captions really help. Another informative and fascinating video. I am enjoying following your journey so much!
Thank you, Nicole. We try to make videos that we would like to watch ourselves and try something new as often as we can. Thank you for the feedback, it is very much appreciated.
Cheers!!!🍻
Thank you 🍻 and a big hello from a Serb living in California. God Bless 🙂

Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching our channel!
Cheers!!!🍻
Next time you visit Saint Sava Church, don't forget to visit the crypt below as well. To me, that's the best part.
We wish we had known! We missed that part. 😔 Next time!! Thank you for watching and for the tip, Uros!
Cheers!!🍻
Another nice video guys - well done.
That city is the Atlantida and Antic Troya, Vincha and now Serbia!!!
That is the most important city on the planet!!!
The name of restaurant is "Stara Hercegovina" (Old Hercegovina), namely old geographical region, and the food name is "Karađorđeva šnicla".
Thank you 😊
Well, food and nightlife are at the top of the list, what Belgrade have to offer. The history, art and architecture are next in line. You missed a lot of places worth visiting. Ada Ciganlija is one of them.
Thank you for this great video. Come again.
Thank you for watching!
Cheers!!🍻
Hvala vam!!!
Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
you have come to the country where there is sun, land and water in the best combination. Such food is the best in the world
Greetings from a guy who was born in Belgrade and currently lives in Dublin. I love both cities ❤️❤️ cheers
We hope to get to Dublin as soon as we can afford it!!! 🙄Ireland is close to the top of our bucket list so eventually we will be there. Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!!🍻
Belgrade looks a nice city to wander through and explore.
Beautiful city
Watch your videos and enjoy them, I see when they are posted but not sure if that’s when you were there . Like knowing for sure when / what month you were there. Keep up the great work ,thanks!
Hi, David. We were there in late Sept, or early Oct. 2022.

Cheers!!🍻
Looks like you had some walking to do. Enjoy your time there. We are currently in Spain...Malaga then Madrid.
So your adventure has begun!!! How are you liking Spain? 🍻
@@BrianandCarrie That was our 2 week vacation. Next trip is the BIGGIE.
My city - born and raised. So proud of my people. Loving, welcoming and resilient. They missed Ski Staza in Košutnjak park. Up on the hill with a magnificent view on the whole city. They also missed Zemun! Austro- Hangarian fortress and “Zemunski Key”….. a week is not enough to visit all things in Belgrade. Ah!!! Miss it!
We did miss so much, you're correct a few days isn't enough time. 😊
This year I’m taking my whole family back for the first time in 24 years and I cannot wait - thank you for the lovely video. God bless
Thank you and safe travels!!!
Skadarlia IS the most touristy street with "traditional" restaurants in Belgrade.
Restoraunts there are old but priced higher for Serbia
@@dzonikg Yes, some are old, but with new owners and everything written in Croatian alphabet. Some are new specialized in foreign dishes (eg pizza).
I think there are some boats/splavs that work during the day too. restaurants and bars
It isnt one of the pritiest cities,but it has a cool vibe!!
A nice feeling to it.
Really enjoy your content, would be great if you could include more prices of meals and accommodations.
We can certainly do that in our upcoming videos!! Thank you for watching!
Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie Thanks, sure to grow your subscribers!
Waw i love that church !! Is beautiful ,we have something similar now. We build a catedral ,the bigest orthodox catredal ,it' s near Palace of Parlamient. You didn' t visit it when you where here in Romania. That catedral you can view from the space just like Palace off Parlamient. Why? Becose when our King Michael died the royals family from Europe came for his funeral ( is on you tube) and they didn' t have enought room for them, so the highest priest ,Priest Daniel ( the cheef of ortodox church ) said this is need it! But the ppl are not happy becose that catedral cost us sooo much and we need that money for schools, hospitals ,but they built it anyway. I saw it on google i didn' t go, but i saw it' s huge, really huge. 😔
😔
Really digging your videos, very simple but awesome info, nothing like current boots on the ground to get inspired by. We are planning to start traveling again which we did during COVID for a year so thanks for loads of honest info... Would love more links posted of the current countries 😂 can you post the link for the car service you used? I think it was called simpli city but I can't seem to find it anywhere online. Anyway, enjoy your travels!
Thank you, Amy and Bryon! We link as much as we can, and we are always trying to give as much information as we can. Here is the link! Highly suggest!!
Cheers!!!🍻 www.transportbudapesta.ro/
There is also a russian church next to the big one, also very beautiful!
Nice ,don’t forget to visit Budapest as well
We will be getting that direction in a couple years when we return to the region. It is on our list.
Cheers!!🍻
3:22 The name of that restaurant, пивница is pronounced Pivnitsa and it simply means pub or tavern
I am glad that you had a nice time in Belgrade. Have you visited the crypt of the St. Sava Temple?
We somehow missed the crypt, apparently the best part!! Next time for sure. Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!!🍻
My friend you should try fruit and vegetables in Serbia. They are homegrown organic
We love all the farmer's markets that we have found. Everything is organic and inexpensive! In the states, we have to pay extra for organic! Makes you wonder why? Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!!
Cheers!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie same in Canada We are getting season vegetable local but it’s just not the same Out off season are truck from USA or Mexico and that’s sucks. Price and quality. O well fishing is good here. Lol. All the best in your travel
YES!! We are from Bellingham WA. and fish and crab often. Some of our best fishing has been off north Vancouver Island in Simoon Sound. Beautiful country!!
@@BrianandCarrie I am in Ontario we have good fish around me couple hours driving. Vancouver is 5 hours flight. So many times I tried to explain people from Europe how big is Canada and USA. Landmass In Europe for hour or less you can get from country to country and enjoy in diversity in no time. However travelling Europe is very nice experience. How long you guys stay in Balkan. Maybe I can recommend few sites and cities if you are interested to visit them
We are actually leaving next week. In the last 13 months we have spent 7 in the Balkans. Heading home for Nov. and Dec. then off to SE Asia.
I wouldn't say it's underrated, more like it's unadvertised.
Agree.
Thank you for a great Serbian video. Hope that you have enjoyed your stay as much as I got impression from your vblog.
Serbia is a beautiful country with lots of rich history. People are welcoming, passionate, honest and friendly. If you ever visit again try visiting some of the following sites: "Golubac Fortress", "Vinca Belo Brdo" archeological museum, Gamzigrad-Romuliana, Monasteries on Fruska Gora (near city of Novi Sad), Lepenski vir archeological site (very famous), Vrnjacka Banja (hot springs), Zlatibor mountain (has longest gondola ride in the world - 9km) , Kopaonik mountain, Avala, city of Nis (Birth city of Constantine the Great. Historians claim that 17 Roman Emperors were born on modern day Serbian territory) and so on...
Have a great travel where ever you go next and upcoming holiday season!
Thank you for all the suggestions and ideas, Aleksandra!! This is great, we hope to get back someday soon!!
Cheers!!!🍻
That restaurants name is pronounced like peeve-neat-za. Peevoh is beer.
The restaurant was Stara Hercegovina (Old Herzegovina). Why no video of the restaurant and the food?
Thank you for the name! We had some technical difficulties and were unable to get the video. 😔
VOLIM SRBIJU !!!
CHEERS!!!🍻
is a new Indian subscriber 👋 , love you guys 😄 . I wish you could travel and show us all across the US 🤩🤪🤑 .
Thank you for subscribing, Paul! We would love to travel across the US but we can't afford it! 😀 We will be home for the holidays and we will be doing a video of our hometown of Bellingham, WA. Thank you again for joining our channel!
Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie I knew it , the cost of living crisis 😋
Medical insurance in the US is the main reason why. Private insurance would cost us about $800 a month each.
@@BrianandCarrie call Bernie Sanders 🤭
HAHA!! Sounds like you know US politics 🙄
Thanks guys what time of yr were you in serbia 🇷🇸
I heard the air quality was bad due to coal power generator
Hi! We were there in August.
You missed going to the Crypt in the Saint Sava church.
We did miss it!! We walked all over and somehow missed it. You are about the 10th person to point that out. So bummed we didn't see it. 😔
Hi, can you share the name of the restaurants you went?
Hi, Irena. Our mistake by not adding that information to the video. We tried to find the information online but haven't had any luck. Sorry, we can't help you. ☹
This used to be a great city when Jelen beer in the hotel Moscow was 0.5eur, espresso 0.25eur, and monthly rent was 50eur. Then in 2000 cryptojewea came and increased prices 10 times
Dobro dosli u Srbiji
Welcome in Serbien
Thank you!! We really enjoyed Belgrade!
Cheers!!🍻
How do you deal with the indoor smoking in some of these countries?
There is always outside seating!
Thanks for all the great videos. One question when you guys fly from country to country do you purchase one way tickets. Have you had any issues entering a new country with a one way ticket. I know that some countries might require and exit ticket in order to come into it. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks and keep up the excellent documentaries.
Most countries do not require an onward ticket. However, we are flying to Thailand in January, and they do. We will have to show this at customs when entering. We are going to do a video in the coming weeks about how we travel, where we decide to go, and the entire process from start to finish. Maybe that will answer any questions and be helpful. Thank you for watching!
Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie That would be fantastic; if you can outline the planning process with emphasis on the airfare side it will help. Congrats on the newspaper post. Keep up with all the good videos and safe travels.
👏👏👏👏 👏 !!!! !
Thank you, Ana!
Cheers!!🍻
Another country, another beer!
Cheers!!🍻
Is there a train or bus from Belgrade to sarajevo bosnia and Herzegovina. Is Belgrade safe for us citizens
Belgrade is safe for US citizens. We were there for 5 days and didn't have any problems. Just keep a low profile and you'll be fine. There is a bus but the cost to fly was very inexpensive, so we chose to fly. Thank you for watching!
Cheers!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie since I am a US citizen, and I am staying at sarajevo I could take a plane back and forth from sarajevo to belgrade to spend the whole day in belgrade and come back to sarajevo in the same day without any problem since I'm in sarajevo
