Serbia is so much nicer than this video portrays. Good job overall.
well said mate
That was just a basic introduction - you can't pile up an entire Serbia's overview in only 15 minutes! He's obviously not just traveling through as he is taking time to learn and cook some local dishes. So just relax and have patience's!
Ελλάδα Σερβία συμμαχία για πάντα
Ορθόδοξοι χριστιανοί και η δύο χώρες.
Yes God’s blessings to you and all your family life and All Greek NATIONS
Amen 🙏
One correction-only North Serbia (Vojvodina) and Belgrade is flat. Rest is mountain region with peaks over 2000 metres.
Beo isn't flat, it's hilly terrain across city, I live here, but from UK where almost all major cities are flat, then outlying regions of Kosmaj, Avala and Torlak.
@@paulwilliams2663 nice to see you living here, fellow Belgrader. You could argue that (old) Belgrade is hilly (although flat compared to mainland Serbia), but recently, main Belgrade expansion was to north and west across the rivers, into flat (geograficaly Vojvodina's) terrain-New Belgrade (largest municipality in Serbia with most businesses), Zemun (now basicaly merged with Zemun Polje, Batajnica, Galenika, Surcin and Banovci, once distant villages), Borca (huge technology park curently in construction), Surcin (place of future EXPO 2027 facilities). So much so, that it slowly overtakes (old) Belgrade. One (of many) bad side effects of this urban rapid development is that is being underwent on fertilest of agricultural soil. Cheers!
Belgrade is a transitioning zone. Southern parts of Belgrade are hilly while northern are flat
Just remove that stereotypical thumbnail. This is Balkans, not the former USSR. I don't know why so many foreigners fail to understand that. Our culture is worlds apart from the said region...
Great video Pierce. Loved your live streams from Belgrade and so happy to see that your channel is growing. Well deserved. Keep rocking bro!
Thank you very much for this information you provided about Serbia. Greetings from Serbia.
Serbia is safer......because there's not much monkeys around.........
Thanks for this amazing video and summary presentation of Serbia mentality and culture.
"Ziveli" is more used like "Cheers" when you drink but if you really translate it is To live or something like that
It is a very short form of phrase "live long and prosper"
A rough literal translation would be something like "be alive".
Good video. One error though. The flag on your thumbnail is actually the old flag of Montenegro, but it's our dear twin brother, so no offense taken :)
good video thank you very much for the positive persoektives
Nice vlog Tales from the Road. Some interesting points.
2:20, you nailed it! Thx!
Nice you answer my question about fiber internet. A must for remote work.
Serbia is mutch mutch more than you know. Special abot us history
Thank you Pierce for such a positive and informative video about my country!
I'd like to add just a few things:
- Serbia was never a part of Eastern Europe. It borders with Eastern Europe (i.e. Hungary). It's a common mistake, so don't worry.
- We use both, Cyrilic and Latin scripts. Cyrillic is an official script, so all the official documents are written only in cyrillic. However, both scripts are commonly used. The further South you go - Cyrillic prevails, on the North - Latin script.
- The thing that everybody forgets to mention - we write phonetically. There is no spelling, so to say. One voice - one letter, so it's very easy to read something even without knowing the meaning. Very useful when you are looking for an address or something.
- Stores. When you go to Greece, for example, every item found in stores has a label written in Greek. You have to guess, or ask someone. In Serbia 90% of what you can see on the shelves is written in English. This is an oversight for us (apparently there is no legislation yet) but it's very useful for tourists.
I like this video a lot! I'm going to use it in class!
There's one more thing I'd like to point out "Serbia is notoriously flat", which is true only for the Northern part of Serbia called Vojvodina. If you go further south from Belgrade, Serbia is quite mountainous.
The other thing is about "ćevapi or ćevapčići", meat similar to kebab, they are made from the combo of pork and veal,while in Sarajevo and many parts of Bosnia you can eat only veal/beef kebabs/ chevapi, and also in some towns of Serbia, like Novi Pazar and Sjenica.
Overall, this is a great account of Serbia from the point of view of a stranger.
Serbia is part of Eastern-Europe, however, Serbia neve joined the Warsaw Pact dominated by USSR - that's the only difference!
p.s. aj' nemoj da drvis!
Check your facts. @@Brave2standalone
Bravooo❤❤❤❤
KOSOVO IS SERBIA!!👍💪
Kosovo are Muslims?
Kosovo are Muslims?
Britishstan are muslims : )?
@@Oliver-fs2ep recently they are majority.
@@sombor777 they been majority for centuries.
This is easily the most informed youtube video on Serbia that I've seen from a foreigner in the last three years. Well done.
Oh, and that ruins that you mentioned in final part are not that old. ;)
It is Gardoš Tower (or Janos Hunyadi tower), that was erected in 1890's to celebrate 1000 years of Hungarian kingdom. They put one of each in four spots of the kingdom, this happens to be the southernmost.
Thanks so much! I appreciate that
I'm sorry, but the part about Serbian history is completely mashed up, and chronologically not correct, there is a 1000 years between the Fall of Rome, and the Ottoman conquest of Serbia. There is a ton of history in that time period that was mashed up in the video, this isn't a hate comment, I'm just pointing out what I consider a very important mistake. Also, the thumbnail doesn't match Serbia, as Yugoslavia wasn't a part of the Eastern Block, and at one point, very distant from the USSR... I know comments like this can be very annoying, but I hope you understand where I'm coming from, thank you.
Very well done, thank you👏👏👏
nice video :) Greetings from Belgrade. Little advice: your voice bounces on walls, so you need better mice or some way to lower the sound bouncing
Any tips for mailing postcards? Heading to Belgrade in two weeks!
We love Serbia!
Nis does have the best burek, oldest known burek recipe comes from Nis.
Only the name is turlish, dish is just a regular serbian pie, with a lot more grease than usual.
KOSOVO IS SERBIA!!!
As long as Turkiye is , frineds of Kosovo. No one even thinks of Hurting , bosnijaks & Albenians, Macadoniasn,
There are some inaccuracies, but okay, thank you for the research and the effort.
Lots of inaccuracies!
CYRILLIC is not that hard because many letters are same as Greek. Thus it's like fraternity or sorority letters ALPHA, Beta, Delta, Gamma)..and MATH symbols (Pi, Theta, etc.)
And thats how you present your stuidity , first minut and half and i dont need to see any more ... We are now in the year 7530 by our calendar and always was Serbs !
ca 0:53 in Hungary is not considered part of the Balkans. The language is also very different belonging to the Finno-Ugric group rather than Slavic
Correct.
He has no idea. He said SERBs USE Cyrillic which is only partly true .. Cyrillic is used in south and central Serbian government institutions but Serbs use more Latin than Cyrilic ..
Malvinas Argentinas 💪👍😃
Hello sir I’m from Australia please your Video very very good. Zaman. Australia. I’m Soon Come too visit in.Serbia
Hey, Emmanuel from Rwanda. Plz may I found hostel there ? I want to come there.
When angipsy child ask you money, and you want to help, buy him some food and drink.
They are usually alowed to go back home whennthey collect certain ammount of money, so they often sleep in streets or spend nights in little groups in parks.
There was a night shelter for them but city stopped financing it, so there is nothing for them.
Kosovo Is srebia👍
Serbia Belongs to Kosovo
What is that uniform,Soviet?Why in the hell you do that?
It's clearly a Yugoslav military outfit man.
@@TalesFromTheRoad I'm Serb,40 y old never see that uniform xD
@@TalesFromTheRoad if that's a military uniform from ex-yu, it's the first time I've ever seen it. The symbols on it are also not familiar at all
Can someone share a timestamp of the uniform that is referenced?
Great video but please get a microphone!
Great summary,
Can most locals speak English?
Cheers
Most of us can. Especially younger population. Older ppl have some knowledge too, eunough to help you with basic needs. All over the contry, you will found someone who know English well.
English is a compulsory foreign language in elementary schools in Serbia, everyone learns it for at least 8 years, some continue in high school and university
Ziveli means Cheers! Very simple.
I serbia😊
Smederevo
Two things I have to add onto the video: Serbian beers have gone down in quality over the years, not worth drinking over other alcohol, foreign beer (Niksicko/Montenegro or Nektar/Republika Srpska are better choices than Lav, Jelen, Zajecarsko etc..) and that public transport while decent, always has a reputation for being late and not even saying or trying to excuse themselves as to why they are showing up an hour and 43 minutes late.
Yes Serbia and Serbian Culture is Very Very Honest People and very Very Respective People Kosovo and Serbia 🇷🇸 What is Jerusalem For Jewish Nations Kosovo is For Serbian History and Orthodox Church ⛪️ Serbian Orthodox Church
I am very very Sad To See What is NATO And The West Did to Serbian Orthodox Church ⛪️
God’s blessings to everyone in Serbian Nations Amen 🙏
I'm a military vet and retired age 54 I'm wondering if Serbia would be a good choice to relocate to? I'm asking bcuz I met a woman from Kosovo who became hostile towards me bcuz of the UN US military incident in the 90s...
Obviously I would not reveal my military history... But I'm wondering how Americans are received?
Thx
Well thank you for some kind of truth... I like it...
Listen, you haven't really seen the real Serbia. Except maybe a little in Niš.
Ask the people of Belgrade and Novi Sad, especially those who have more than average money, where they spend their weekends. Not in Novi Sad, not in Belgrade, not in Subotica, not in any destination you mentioned.
They spend their weekends in Western Serbia, most often on the mountain known as Zlatibor.
When this regular weekly "migration" starts (like wildebeests in Africa) the roads are covered with endless columns of cars. These are thousands and thousands of cars.
If you want to taste the real Serbia, come to Šumadija and Western Serbia. Belgrade is part of Šumadija, but it is on the very border of Šumadija. Go to Kragujevac, Užice, Požega... Where you've already been, it's just another metropolis like almost anywhere in Europe. the difference is in the variety of food that is adapted for foreign tourists. It looks a bit like real Serbian food. And a few historical monuments and that's all you can see there that represents real Serbian culture, tradition, cuisine...
Kosova osht shqipni 🇦🇱🇽🇰
Serbians use Latin in everyday life more than Cyrillic. As a Serbian, I don't remember using Cyrillic.Most media, tv, newspapers, restaurants, etc are used in Latin. Children are taught both alphabets at elementary schools and most of them use primarily Latin in high schools or universities Stop comparing us to the Russians who use only their Cyrillic alphabet.You didn't even mention that in your video.. Shame on you!
Calm down
@@TalesFromTheRoad You better tell the truth and remove that Russian uniform from your thumbnail about Serbia..It has nothing to do with us or our culture.
Serb are not savic.serbs are serbs.I2 halpo group
A slice of Ruzzia in the Balkans, how nice
Has nothing to do with russia
Russian language is extremely different from serbian. Its almost like german and english. Russians share only arround 30 % dna with serbs not even half !! The flag is simillair because their both orthodox christian so they both have the byzantine double headed eagle and the colours are pan european, almost all european countries have those colours. Serbia existed way before russia. The serbs migrated to modern day russia from central and south eastern europe as illyrian/lusatian tribes they mixed with the autochtonous uralic and nordic peoples culture and language and started russia. This last thing is not a well known fact but can be easily prooven by researching and reading a little bit.
@@skitotrachia3361 that’s hilarious
@@skitotrachia3361 they are the same both like genocide
@@ledjo4076 Serbs and Germans must be identical then, right? What about the Saudis?
In Serbia, if you don't send your kid to school you will go to jail!
He's correct about the gypsies tho, and this may be the first video I saw that mentions this problem
gypsies do not have ID!!!
@@Lazarus_ReSpawngypsies are an “issue” in whole southern Europe.
From Spain to Romania.
Spain also calls them cigani like in the Balkans.
They are a nomadic tribe.
@@Lazarus_ReSpawnI’m Italian, go to Rome or southern (Puglia, Calabria, Campania) it’s filled with gypsies.
I like Serbia because there's not much nakers there ........
