I was thinking about it but it seems to be a bit of a nightmare to get to and I've had no luck renting a car in Uzice. The next 2 videos are from Bajina Basta and Sargan Eight (already filmed!) then I'm heading over to Krusevac area
Loved the video. my ne is Igor I work on regional tv station so if u r still in Užice we sould love to do segment on u and your visit to Užice and WesternSerbia
Ich war schon in Uzice,und für mich ist es eine der ungewöhnlichsten und schönsten Städte in Europa.Sehr schön!Danke dir für dieses Video.Viele Grüße aus Berlin.
Well, that's pro cinematics , nice cuts and interesting narration. I wander who is a city Mayor , because public places needs refurbishing like... yesterday. Interesting about Uzice is that I expereanced uncommon thing there, having in mind that it is a small town. I was driving to a seaside with wife and daughter, and somewhere on a road from Cacak, our car brakes started to fade out ! Now, I stopped at a car service and garage at the entrance of Uzice, ( on a left side, near a nice new hotel on a banks of Djetinja ) and turned out that metal piping for brake oil were hit and damaged , and in order to continue driving, it was needed to replace complete pipeline. I was thinking that We will stay for days until it arrives, because it was very rare pipe for Cabrio car , not same as for same regular model. But, service took my car and asked us to go for a lunch at nearby hotel. It was lunch time, anyway. Well, it happens that in Uzice there are companies which produce copper pipes for breaking systems and they do it on demand. I was called 3 hours later and informed that all is fixed and we can continue our drive to the seaside. All done. And charged me , like ... 50 Euros. Now, people of Uzice and surrounding are called Ere . Man from Uzice is Era. There are tons of folklore stories about Eras and in most of them , they are marked as smart and capable people. What to say ? My experience is that it's all true. My car would stay in garage in Belgrade for 3-4 days, but in Uzice , it's done while you are having a lunch and drinking your Digestive.
I like you Goran. You always have interesting stories and information to offer! Your story reminds me very much of coming from London versus the sort of place my mother lives in the south west. So many car related issues. I needed a replacement wing mirror once and the monosyllabic employee was adamant there were none in stock. I rifled through the drawer to find one myself. In smaller towns that wouldn't happen Although once I needed my yearly MOT certificate and I knew it wouldn't pass, so a friend recommended a mechanic friend of his. I just paid him for the certificate. Corruption! Lol. That probably wouldn't happen in a small village!
Uzice. Love it! The juxtaposition of the brutal tower blocks, the quaint hillside houses and the stunning nature on all sides - really cool. The morning light was phenomenonal as well. Went on a hike in the hills near those bridges last year but had zero time in the city itself. Definitely need to go back and try a Serbian crumpet - love the description!
My new favourite! Omg I swear the texture and taste were just like a crumpet! Got some awesome morning light shots in Mokra Gora today too. Love the rising smoke in this area!
@@davidostrowski679 Omg I can literally "feel" the texture in my mouth. I want one right now! And some pretop - I've had that on potatoes in Belgrade. Delicious!
He who says he has never had an impact on someone! Every video you make has an impact, the way you find so much beauty in simple things, your never give up attitude and your ability to show us the world certainly does have an impact on people! That Fortress was almost magical to see it was like a movie set but there it was in real life. So glad you got up there, the only thing missing was a dog and a down pour🤭 Be proud of this one👍
Movie set! That's what I thought! For the music I was going for some sort of medieval battle, then again people like you would have got that already LOL #dogandadownpour that should be my new channel name
so I recently moved to Belgrade and was not 100% sure where to put Uzice on the "places to visit in Serbia" .. Niw it's definitely in my top 5.. Awesome video, thanks!
Your trek up to the tower was absolutely worth it! Thank you for persevering. Loved the amazing views, fall colors, beautiful river and trees. And the tunnels and bridges! Your meal looked delicious and filling. You really packed a lot into this video! 😊❤️
I live in New Zealand but I’m from Uzice. Your pronunciation is cute 😂 I do love the brutalist architecture, and the way the town looks from the mountains. It is kind of charming in ways. I never get lepinja from Blue Moon though, I go there for burek.
Omg!! The video was wondering David, love how it look fall weather my favorite season. The bread 🥯look sooo delish and I rather have local cafe ☕ then starbucks Ha! I'm not really a starbucks fan.🤷🏻♀️ The artist are amazing everything was beautiful parks, museum the view etc. Very interesting great video David, I'm glad I'm traveling with you.🤗 Stay safe my friend.🙏🏽
Woow! Thank you so much for this video. Absolutely love it, since there is no filtering or enhancing ( not evrth has to be perfect, right?). As a true Era, born with all my heart left in Uzice, it is great to see that somebody did notice it was ,and still is underestimated. Keep up this excellent work! Can't wait the rest videos from the Zlatibor region. Hvala❤
Thanks Jasmina! Bajina Bašta went up the other day and Mokra Gora and Šargan Eight will be up on Sunday! I'll still be based in Užice next week so I might be doing another one there if I'm too tired to go to one of my other planned locations. Užice has been a pleasant surprise. Amazing place!
@@davidostrowski679 I wish I can just jump on a plane BUT--------------> Planning next year, hopefully this whole CoV-2 BS will blow over. Moreover, as a Malaysian, I can't enter Serbia without applying for a visa first. Unless Serbia decided to do an e-visa instead. Likely I will be in Turkey before that. How long will you be in Serbia or the thereabouts? Cheers to your Sunday! 🍹☕☕
Sounds like a plan! Up until a few years ago I needed a visa for Turkey but not anymore. I'm in Serbia until 10th November then heading to Ukraine. Still lots of videos from Serbia to come though!
Dios mío! It was as though you had fallen through into another world or period of tine. Your toy helicopter sure does amplify your surroundings 👌!! Top tier!!
He can now tick off "learn to fly toy helicopter" by the time you turn 40!! I think he can tick off more than you and l will do in a lifetime tbh, create a draw dropping video of cinematic quality isn't on that list but he has achieved it👍
What an absolute legend you are for making these videos and having such a profound understanding of everything local. Yes, Uzice is underrated (though we aren't really doing much to compete) and your video almost makes me sorry for constantly talking s*** about my hometown. PS. The siege in question happened in early 1370's when a young but fiery Serb warlord who most likely built the little fortress (a small military outpost in fact) was chased down by a coalition of other Serb and Hungarian warlords who got fed up of the out of control young lord. During this chase, he was denied access in other fortresses and outposts of his - so he made the last stand in Uzice. The siege was ended by a fire (arrows), and a surrender, and the warlord was spared but blinded by lords and dukes who would later make the epic stand against Turkish invasion in the 1380's and 1390's. The blue flag you see in Uzice next to a national flag is a (fictional) Coat of Arms of this young Medieval lord.
4:54 -Football player of Partizan Belgrad and Sloboda Užice.. Coach of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid… Legends live forever! Radomir Antić ⚫️⚪️
When you continue through the tunnels, you will pass through the beautiful nature and you will reach Velika Brana (Great Dam) and when you head towards Zlatibor, turn to Zabucje to go out to the lookout Point above Uzice, you shoud miss it. Greeting.
Beautiful video David, love the black and white intro, excellent drone video and narration as well as historical content.Bloody brilliant as you said. Love the river scene. Interesting that the language was in English. Question: what has been your favorite city in Serbia so far? -Marc
Thanks man! It was a bit of an ordeal to film and edit! Favourite city so far either Subotica, Užice or Niš (I was there last year). I've started to see Belgrade as I see Mexico City, I love it and hate it! I think it comes from having spent so much time in one place! Have a great weekend! I replied to your Patreon message, no update yet! Argh!
4:52 Радомир Антић - Radomir Antić (1948-2020) was a Serbian professional football manager and player. Teams managed : Serbian national team, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Celta Vigo ...
4:54 It is RADMOIR ANTIĆ, his younger days. Famous serbian and european foorball coach and earlier football player. Former coahc of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Arletico Madrid, champion of Spain with Atletico, two times i think?.
Ingredients of "complet bun" - komplet lepinja: That gravy you saw is the stuff dripping from the animal meat when baked. Just like your stake will make it's own gravy - but this stuff is collected and later frozen when you're baking large quantities. It's awesome, tho sometimes there can be a bit more fat. Easily recognisable - this fat will stay on top, gray, while the good stuff is deep, dark brown and settles on the bottom. You can't buy a jar of "only the good stuff" because even the good stuff isn't good without some fat. It's just that too much fat will taste like.... fat. If there's more brown than gray, it's good quality. "Kajmak" is a dairy product, similar to every other cream made out of milk, only salty. It's one of the oldest ways to make something like that out of milk. Each time you cook your daily milk for example 100l of milk, in the end you just collect the "pancake" of milk fat that accumulated. You throw it on a plate and spread some salt around. Repeat every day until you have a bunch of kajmak. It doesn't taste good first few days, than it's awesome for like few weeks, while it's "young" than it becomes yellowish, some people prefer it in this period. When you smear these two into the bun, you break an egg directly in it and mix it all together. Needless to say it's a calorie bomb, myself, being from Uzice, would recommend some other places than the one advertised in this video, because I don't like my fingers oily from this, some other guys make it with less fatty gravy and generally easier on the stomach. But the way those guys do it (in this video) is more traditional. Btw, from whatever reason, this thing is made only in Uzice, you can't order it anywhere in Serbia, people don't know how to make it right. Btw2 - it is awesome, when done right.
Thanks for taking the time to tell us all this information Milan! I filmed a video this week in Uzice again and went to Blue Moon to compare it with Suljage. It will be up next week!
@@davidostrowski679 You should have went to Somun, near Una (ex pancake house, every taxi guy knows the place). So, if you're still around, third time's a charm. But maybe even Blue Moon is better than Suljaga. Too salty and too greasy for me ;D
The one with Thomas the Tank Engine? I'll be back in that area on Wednesday filming another one I'll see what I can do! (although there are 2 other videos coming first). Thanks man!
I'll see what spomeniks I can find! The next 2 videos are filmed and very much countryside Serbia but the one after that could have spomenik potential!
Well done! Thanks for presenting out city in this manner. Next time you are in town, call, ask for help. we can show you interesting places and how to get there.
Thanks! I'm still here, leaving for Kruševac on Friday. I might film another video in Užice this week, I was going to go to the dam, the museum with the tunnels and Blue Moon. Any other suggestions?
@@davidostrowski679 Check sightseeing point on Zabučje. It is great view on whole Užice meadow. Đetinja hides lots of interesting places, not just Velika brana: Mala brana, Rajske otoke, Picin vir, Grdina, neolith settlement (not fake one recently build for tourism purposes), Megara cave, few viewpoints on cliffs above Đetinja, old trade road... Monument on Kadinjača Potpećka pećina (cave) Solotnik fort ...
Really enjoying watching your adventures in the Balkans. I'll be travelling and teaching on iTalki full time from February next year, (and building a RUclips channel of course!) so it's giving me a lot of ideas! Thanks for that!
@@davidostrowski679 Almost certainly going to visit Greece first. Then head home to the UK for a couple of weeks, then probably head to Bulgaria. I'm from the north of England but I've been living in South Korea since 2019 so Europe is going to be new and exciting again!
South Korea! I love Seoul! (been to Busan too but that's it). I miss Asia in general! I might have to go to the UK over Christmas to get a goddamn vaccine. Had no luck anywhere given that I'm not a resident. Next stop is Ukraine!
@@davidostrowski679 Ukraine! Very cool! Even more beautiful architecture for some awesome videos! I wanted to live in Busan but, long story short, I've live here for almost 3 years and I've still never been! Haha. I've heard it's a cool city though. I remember watching your Japan vlogs before I moved out here mate. Absolute inspiration! Still inspiring! I was in Tokyo November 2019 and saw the Mario cart convoy tearing through the streets. Looks like a lot of fun! It's definitely on my to do list. Yeah, vaccines and travel is all a bit of a mess right now. Hope you can get it sorted out and just get back on the road. This whole pandemic is getting really boring. It's definitely a first world traveller mindset but I just want to get back on the road now! Oh, I bought your book recently too! Thanks for the top notch advice and lesson plans in there!
I'm in the process of writing a new one more focused on hybrid working and the numerous topics which come up. Once I leave Serbia I'll get a chance to finish it as I won't be filming in Odesa for a few weeks
@@davidostrowski679 Back in the day yoghurt packs in Serbia were bit bigger. It was 0.25L. Today is less then 0,2L and it is mesured in grams which is insane. 1kg is like 0.97L ( x milions of liters every day) . Dairy companies cheat.
Spero di visitare il più presto possibile se nn ci saranno ancora casini. Purtroppo penso che il destino di noi è scritto ma ho sempre spera rane. Ciao David
@@davidostrowski679 Yeah, I don't know, that line on the bottom of your ear is not saying "cocaine", but "burek", actually to be more correct, "meat burek". Burek is much more dangerous then cocaine hahahah

Don't miss the Uvac river canyon while you there. That place is out of this world. Love your videos
I was thinking about it but it seems to be a bit of a nightmare to get to and I've had no luck renting a car in Uzice. The next 2 videos are from Bajina Basta and Sargan Eight (already filmed!) then I'm heading over to Krusevac area

Loved the video. my ne is Igor I work on regional tv station so if u r still in Užice we sould love to do segment on u and your visit to Užice and WesternSerbia
So glad you are enjoing Serbia,great job,thanks from Australia🥰🥰🥰
Serbia and Uzice will always welcome such a nice guests. Cool video...
Thank you!
The shots you took by drone are epic. It seems like the beginning of a good movie. Great job.
I said exactly the same thing it was like l was watching a movie but it was real life!!! Stunning.
Yes!
Thanks Uros! That was the look I was going for, some sort of medieval battle movie!
Most intelligent and entertaining vlogs about Serbia I've seen. Carry on, David!
Thank you! That means an incredible amount! Bajina Bašta and Šargan Eight filmed and ready to edit!
I was going to say that, and more. Intelligent, insightful commentary on brutalist architecture and many other general topics too. Go, David!
Ich war schon in Uzice,und für mich ist es eine der ungewöhnlichsten und schönsten Städte in Europa.Sehr schön!Danke dir für dieses Video.Viele Grüße aus Berlin.
My new favorite. So cinematic, so beautiful!
My new favourite too! #metrobalderas
I am from Uzice:)
Omg first-time watching this video...Stunning...Tnx David! ❣️🇷🇸🙏
you're welcome!
Well, that's pro cinematics , nice cuts and interesting narration.
I wander who is a city Mayor , because public places needs refurbishing like... yesterday.
Interesting about Uzice is that I expereanced uncommon thing there, having in mind that it is a small town.
I was driving to a seaside with wife and daughter, and somewhere on a road from Cacak, our car brakes started to fade out !

I was thinking that We will stay for days until it arrives, because it was very rare pipe for Cabrio car , not same as for same regular model.
But, service took my car and asked us to go for a lunch at nearby hotel. It was lunch time, anyway.
Well, it happens that in Uzice there are companies which produce copper pipes for breaking systems and they do it on demand.
I was called 3 hours later and informed that all is fixed and we can continue our drive to the seaside.
All done. And charged me , like ... 50 Euros.
Now, people of Uzice and surrounding are called Ere . Man from Uzice is Era. There are tons of folklore stories about Eras and in most of them , they are marked as smart and capable people.
What to say ? My experience is that it's all true.
My car would stay in garage in Belgrade for 3-4 days, but in Uzice , it's done while you are having a lunch and drinking your Digestive.
I like you Goran. You always have interesting stories and information to offer! Your story reminds me very much of coming from London versus the sort of place my mother lives in the south west.
So many car related issues. I needed a replacement wing mirror once and the monosyllabic employee was adamant there were none in stock. I rifled through the drawer to find one myself. In smaller towns that wouldn't happen
Although once I needed my yearly MOT certificate and I knew it wouldn't pass, so a friend recommended a mechanic friend of his. I just paid him for the certificate. Corruption! Lol. That probably wouldn't happen in a small village!

Thanks! I forgot to find out who it was before I edited. There's a basketball player just around the corner, Miroslav someone
@@davidostrowski679 Miroslav-Mire Radosevic famous basketball player
Im from Uzice and thank you so much.
you're welcome Ivan! I should be filming another one this week
My town❤️Thank you 😊
You're welcome! ❤ Užice!
love the views you captured! what u didnt go thru the tunnel! am shocked 😂
Ingredients of "complet bun" - komplet lepinja:
That gravy you saw is the stuff dripping from the animal meat when baked. Just like your stake will make it's own gravy - but this stuff is collected and later frozen when you're baking large quantities. It's awesome, tho sometimes there can be a bit more fat. Easily recognisable - this fat will stay on top, gray, while the good stuff is deep, dark brown and settles on the bottom. You can't buy a jar of "only the good stuff" because even the good stuff isn't good without some fat. It's just that too much fat will taste like.... fat. If there's more brown than gray, it's good quality.
"Kajmak" is a dairy product, similar to every other cream made out of milk, only salty. It's one of the oldest ways to make something like that out of milk. Each time you cook your daily milk for example 100l of milk, in the end you just collect the "pancake" of milk fat that accumulated. You throw it on a plate and spread some salt around. Repeat every day until you have a bunch of kajmak. It doesn't taste good first few days, than it's awesome for like few weeks, while it's "young" than it becomes yellowish, some people prefer it in this period.
When you smear these two into the bun, you break an egg directly in it and mix it all together.
Needless to say it's a calorie bomb, myself, being from Uzice, would recommend some other places than the one advertised in this video, because I don't like my fingers oily from this, some other guys make it with less fatty gravy and generally easier on the stomach. But the way those guys do it (in this video) is more traditional.
Btw, from whatever reason, this thing is made only in Uzice, you can't order it anywhere in Serbia, people don't know how to make it right. Btw2 - it is awesome, when done right.
Thanks for taking the time to tell us all this information Milan! I filmed a video this week in Uzice again and went to Blue Moon to compare it with Suljage. It will be up next week!
@@davidostrowski679 You should have went to Somun, near Una (ex pancake house, every taxi guy knows the place). So, if you're still around, third time's a charm. But maybe even Blue Moon is better than Suljaga. Too salty and too greasy for me ;D
4:51 His name is Radomir Antic, famous serbian football legend
Well done👍🏼🍀✌🏽
Hvala!
If you do go back please read the sign at the fortress! Awesome video!
The one with Thomas the Tank Engine? I'll be back in that area on Wednesday filming another one I'll see what I can do! (although there are 2 other videos coming first). Thanks man!
awesome vid
Thanks Igor!
Thanks for your hard and epic climb for us
Can you include in your next videos some visit to few spomeniks?
I'll see what spomeniks I can find! The next 2 videos are filmed and very much countryside Serbia but the one after that could have spomenik potential!
@@davidostrowski679 spomenik database will help you 😊
there's a database?! OMG!
@@davidostrowski679 yes and a fantastic one with all the gps coordinates for every single spomenik and the history of all of them
Reka=River cognates from Proto Indo-European hroyH-keh. Rain is from the same root. But rain is Keesha in Serbian.

Great video! 👍
Thanks!
Wow!!

See the world, one place at a time....
100%!
Prelepo hvala na videu
Well done! Thanks for presenting out city in this manner.
Next time you are in town, call, ask for help. we can show you interesting places and how to get there.
Thanks! I'm still here, leaving for Kruševac on Friday. I might film another video in Užice this week, I was going to go to the dam, the museum with the tunnels and Blue Moon. Any other suggestions?
@@davidostrowski679 Check sightseeing point on Zabučje. It is great view on whole Užice meadow.
Đetinja hides lots of interesting places, not just Velika brana: Mala brana, Rajske otoke, Picin vir, Grdina, neolith settlement (not fake one recently build for tourism purposes), Megara cave, few viewpoints on cliffs above Đetinja, old trade road...
Monument on Kadinjača
Potpećka pećina (cave)
Solotnik fort

Really enjoying watching your adventures in the Balkans. I'll be travelling and teaching on iTalki full time from February next year, (and building a RUclips channel of course!) so it's giving me a lot of ideas! Thanks for that!
Sounds bloody brilliant! And thanks of course! Where are you thinking of travelling to begin with?
@@davidostrowski679 Almost certainly going to visit Greece first. Then head home to the UK for a couple of weeks, then probably head to Bulgaria. I'm from the north of England but I've been living in South Korea since 2019 so Europe is going to be new and exciting again!
South Korea! I love Seoul! (been to Busan too but that's it). I miss Asia in general! I might have to go to the UK over Christmas to get a goddamn vaccine. Had no luck anywhere given that I'm not a resident. Next stop is Ukraine!
@@davidostrowski679 Ukraine! Very cool! Even more beautiful architecture for some awesome videos!
I wanted to live in Busan but, long story short, I've live here for almost 3 years and I've still never been! Haha. I've heard it's a cool city though.
I remember watching your Japan vlogs before I moved out here mate. Absolute inspiration! Still inspiring! I was in Tokyo November 2019 and saw the Mario cart convoy tearing through the streets. Looks like a lot of fun! It's definitely on my to do list.
Yeah, vaccines and travel is all a bit of a mess right now. Hope you can get it sorted out and just get back on the road. This whole pandemic is getting really boring. It's definitely a first world traveller mindset but I just want to get back on the road now!
Oh, I bought your book recently too! Thanks for the top notch advice and lesson plans in there!
I'm in the process of writing a new one more focused on hybrid working and the numerous topics which come up. Once I leave Serbia I'll get a chance to finish it as I won't be filming in Odesa for a few weeks
Great vlog
Thanks hun!
Saludos brother 👍
Saludos hermano!
You're pronouncing the names just like Serbians!
I've been trying my best! I realised when editing that I messed up 'lepinja' a bit though lol
Yes, licking the lid, that is mandatory, LOL!
Every drop must be savoured! Lol
Nice video
Thanks!
♥
I ALWAYS lick the lid too. :D
I always find I need a bigger yoghurt lol
@@davidostrowski679 Back in the day yoghurt packs in Serbia were bit bigger. It was 0.25L. Today is less then 0,2L and it is mesured in grams which is insane. 1kg is like 0.97L ( x milions of liters every day) . Dairy companies cheat.
Ridiculous! It reminds me of how the big chocolate tins we would get every Christmas have shrunk to baby size!

Hello from serbia
Welcome in our city....
Hvala!
You gotta work on komplet-lepinja eating technique,
your way of eating it is invaliiid
Eating involves putting food in your mouth, chewing and swallowing. There is no technique
@@davidostrowski679 there is a specific way to eat komplet lepinja, you don't eat it like a hamburger
That's Radomir Antić @ 4:55
hvala brate!
Try to go to Krusevac. A great city.
It's going to be the penultimate video in Serbia!
Moj grad.
Small correction. Yugoslavia came into being before WW2 (after WW1 actually) as a Serbian monarchy. It became a federal socialist republic after WW2.
Thanks! My brain was probably frozen lol
@@davidostrowski679 no big deal just couldnt help myself. Great video and i hope you stay in serbia !
Radomir Antić i Nemanja Vidić..
Мој граде!
nice
Buddy go check mokra gora and visegrad. Place where time has stop
Yep I was in Mokra Gora yesterday! It's coming in 2 videos time
@@davidostrowski679 awesome work I really enjoy.
Spero di visitare il più presto possibile se nn ci saranno ancora casini. Purtroppo penso che il destino di noi è scritto ma ho sempre spera rane. Ciao David
Najpodcenjeniji grad u Srbiji je Sombor, NAŽALOST.
Nsi bate pokazao sve o uzicu sto bi SE trebalo videti.ovo je bas Malo deo Ali hvala
Uskoro stiže drugi video iz Užica!
Nije Dzordz Best već Radomir Antić naša Legenda
Mnogi, od nas UŽIČANA ne znaju ove staze i bagaze.Medjutim , za mene nema tajni sve sam ovo više puta prošao svojim nogama.
Najpotcenjeniji grad u Srbiji je Sombor, uopšte ZAPADNOBAČKI okrug. Zapostavljen, zaboravljen, ništa se ne ulaže, kao i Vojvodina uopšte?!
Voleo sam Sombor! Želim da se vratim kada bude bolje vreme!
Nije tačno,Sombor je posebno lep na svoj nacin, najzapostavljenije je Valjevo,jer su diletanti na vlasti.
Gg
Check your heart, check your heart, check your cholesterol and especially your sugar. I can see. I can see. Check your heart.
I was a cocaine addict for almost a decade, my heart is destroyed
@@davidostrowski679 Yeah, I don't know, that line on the bottom of your ear is not saying "cocaine", but "burek", actually to be more correct, "meat burek". Burek is much more dangerous then cocaine hahahah
For people who like brutalism this city is worth visiting. For the rest , not so much.
In his video, you can clearly see there is more than that.
and there's another Uzice video coming next week!
@@jobrock1079 You probably mean the area outside of the city, because in the city you see only brutalist buildings.
Nije Uzice one, nego ono, pogresan naslov. Mora biti “neverovatno Užice”
