Both my parents are from Montenegro and it looks so similar to their circumstances growing up. It's poverty which is why they left but they had a great loving community spirit and a very beautiful natural environment. A tough life makes tough people.
@@deso224 We decend from Roman Catholic Albanians. The Arbanasi who live in Dalmatia left our villages in the 18th century. In two waves. One to escape Ottoman expansion and the other was after an earthquake had destroyed their homes. So the Arbanasi are my relations. It appears people were travelling back and forth. My relations are Popovic as well. Bizarre. Some Popovic's have Islamic first names as some adopted the Islamic faith.

Hi Dušan, I really love beautiful Dalmatian Zagora. My wife was born there and wee will be there whole September. I’m often by the Peruća lake, Vrlika, Sinj, Drniš. I love to discover area riding on my motorbike. Amazing place and lovely people, god food and vine. Kindest regards from 🇨🇭
My dad’s village in the Dalmatian Zagora remains unchanged over the years, and like many others in the region, it still lacks basic amenities like electricity and running water. There are only a few people left, but every time I visit, I feel a deep sense of fulfillment as I walk through the village. The houses, the untouched nature, the local church, and the gravestones bearing my family name all evoke a profound connection to my roots. The coastal areas are undeniably beautiful, but the Dalmatian Zagora has its own unique charm. It saddens me to see that Croatia’s declining birthrate and increasing emigration are leading to these beautiful villages becoming deserted, perhaps forever. I understand why society and individuals are drawn to the cities, but it’s disheartening to witness the consequences of urbanization, which has severed our connection to nature and the rich traditions of rural life.
damn dude. I randomly had your channel recommended and this is the first video I clicked out of curiosity. My dad and his family are from the same village, I've been here multiple times
Natural beauty of Croatia is undeniable . Not much effort was required on our part for this beauty the standards of living, opportunities, capacity capabilities this is on all of us. Much work is needed in this area in Croatia and everywhere. We all need to rise up and not allow any fear factor to keep us stuck.. in general poor share far more , for they tend be less selfish..should always focus on what can I do to make it better???
Dušan, for me this is the best type of videos you should be uploading! Thank you so much! It’s a real eye-opener, because it shows us the true meaning of life, and that is to be generous, and to help one another, and to live like brothers and sisters! Thank you again, and maybe you could make some new videos with the similar stories… pozdrav is Osijeka brate 😊…
It’s sad but so true. Those who have little , give loads. My Cro husband gives away almost everything.. though he often laments how everyone takes but those that can, don’t give.
Prekrasan video. Puno hvala! Da, zaleđe Dalmacije, Kordun i Lika još uvjek žive tako (Srbi i Hrvati). Znam to jer sam tamo rođena. Ljudi su vec navikli živjeti tako, jer žive godinama. Govorimo ovdje o selima sa malo stanovnika. Ljudi ne pitaju i ne žele ničiju pomoć (papirologija je problem i vrijeme i ljudi se osjećaju neugodno, nisu navikli na birokraciju) a gostu bih sve dali! Volim taj narod!! Bog ga čuva i nitko drugi! Hvala!
It is similar in my area of Croatia. Even on hot summer days I often see smoke coming from chimneys and I'm guessing it is their only way to heat water for washing clothes or whatever. My place did have a bathroom but there was no septic tank, just a pipe dumping waste onto a field.
So they could use some parabolic mirrors to coock on using the heat of concentrated solar rays. ruclips.net/video/S89Ikg3_Ag4/видео.html. Still many people who don't know about these cheap and easy to use devices which are almost 70% efficient compared to normal normal expensive solarpanels which are only 35% efficient.
This resonates so much with me also. Some of my family in serbia especially the ones who fled the war to Serbia had absolutely nothing but would literally give you the shirt on their back and save sweets and drinks for guests. Then Go back to Australia and people can be tight, Not warm and welcoming to guests not even a glass of water. While I sit in my mates bedroom while they ate dinner. I get enjoyment by giving rather than taking but every culture is different. Nice one brate
Very nice and educational video for those who never saw poverty like this. There is also people in ex Yu countries who still don't have electricity to this day. Also, kudos for speaking good Serbian even though you're third generation of your family living in England, if I got it right.
Dalmatian Zagora or inland of Dalmatia is historically poor because of no or little fertile land, woods, no navigable rivers and a mountainous terrain. It known as a tough land to live on.
From what I see, your family from Croatia are Serbs... Did Shpiro stayed there for the whole time during the war or he had to flee.!? Probably thats why is so hard for him... A lot if Serbs left and never returned.
@@milansavic2803 yes he decided to stay and was spared. he has options to move to Serbia if he wishes but admirably he decides to stay home in Dalmatia till his final chapter.
It is his decision to live like this. He can go to a retirement home provided by the government. Croatia has many retirement homes for people that have no one to look after them.
I have seen some hoods myself too when I traveled through Croatia per bus. Are this one of the poor naborhoods of Croatia and is there a high crime rate in those areas compared to the countries average?
@@Dusan.Grujic I once dropped off my rental car at a pre-arranged location of Rijeka railway station and took a taxi into the city centre. As I got out I suddenly realised that I didn't have my mobile on me. I thought I must have left it in the rental car. I got the taxi driver to return to the station only to find that they had been very efficient and taken the rental car away. I spoke to a very kind and helpful lady at the ticket office who, after several phone calls, gave me the address of the compound where the rental car had been taken to. I then got this taxi driver to take me to the other side of Rijeka where the compound was. As we arrived I got out of the taxi only to see a guy in the rental office come running out waving my mobile in the air to me. He was very apologetic explaining that he had attempted to unlock my phone in the hope of being able to contact me - somehow! I gave him some money and thanked him. I then got the same taxi driver to take me to Trieste bus station in Italy for onward travel to the airport. I, too, thanked this really kind taxi driver for his effort and gave him a handsome tip. He thanked me for a change of scenery as we had travelled through Slovenia and was lucky that he had his ID on him for border control - this was before the arrival of Croatia into the Schenghen area. So, thank you to the lady at the railway station who went beyond her normal responsibilities in locating the rental compound, thank you to the taxi driver for his patience and willingness to drive all those extra kilometres but most of all, thank you to the young guy at the car rental compound for being honest and keeping my phone safe 🙂
The problem lies in a very rough nature and low population after the war so local municipalities are reluctant to invest in connections to these very desolate villages in the hinterlands.

Unmarried and apathetic people can live like this. My grandparents came from the village with 20 houses. They had a proper bathroom, kitchen, and all the plumbing connected to a well via a hydro-pump. Roads and streetlights were properly installed. They got a phone in the 80s, before water supply that came 20 years later. Because of this, living is possible there, but they have to drive their children to the school bus every day. The village in this vid still has no asphalted roads, and when I think that the village was probably populated by Serbs, then there is even less hope for it. 😞
So what, in 2024 in our house we don't have city water, city sewer sistem nor central heating and we are living normally. There are modern solutions to those problems that you can implement for little money. Now days even electricity is not essential as you can get solar panels & batteries. The thing is, life in cities is not normal, it's highly unnatural. It's not the other way around..
