Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 кві 2024
- We have been traveling full-time for six years now, and every time we visit a new country such as Montenegro we evaluate whether or not it is somewhere we could live as an expat. We had never heard of Montenegro until just a few years ago, and now it is one of our favorite countires. Montenegro has so much to offer the expat: fascinating history, spectacular scenery, interesting culture, and reasonable prices. If you are considering a move to Montenegro for retirement or to live as an expat then you'll want to check out this video.

Safety, weather, healthcare, cost, scenery, English speakers, all seem to be good and great in Montenegro. These are all my requirements for living in a country.
Thanks for posting this video. I will certainly look into more about this country.
It sounds like Montenegro could be the perfect country for you! Thanks, as always, for watching our videos!
The living costs of 1600 are way too high. Maybe in Kotor its normal but not in other cities at the coastline. 1200 for two persons is the average with an apartment of 60 sqm. for example in Bar or Ulcinj.
So beautiful 👏👏
Glad you got to see more of Montenegro than we did. We just saw Kotor on one of our cruise stops. I really like that town. Where to next?
Even though you only got to see Kotor, you got to see what is probably the best place in Montenegro! Thanks, as always, for watching. We have videos from Albania coming next!
We just left Montenegro this morning, and were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed it. Definitely a place worth checking out! 😀
I'm glad you had a great time there! We are hoping to return again. Where are you going now that you have left Montenegro?
@@snailtravelers We're in Dubrovnik for a few days, then heading to France - can you believe I've never been? Then in a few weeks we'll be hiking the Camino de Santiago. After a wonderful non-Schengen winter/spring in the Balkans, it is going to be a very busy Schengen summer!
We'll be looking forward to your videos from these places. We'll be especially interested to know about your experience hiking The Camino.
@@snailtravelers Too many videos, not enough time to make them all. lol. But we're gonna lean into the Camino for sure, we've been talking about hiking it for over 20 years, excited to finally get there! Have you hiked it or are you considering it?
Ryan and Emily thank you once again for your excellent video. We were so fortunate for having both of you travelling across the globe bringing us pictures and videos about a particular nation. Now we have known so many countries all because of your good work. Be careful and safe while travelling. God bless.
Thanks, as always, for your kind comments!
I've lived in sunny southern California for 35 years. The beach during the day is my very least favorite place to be, aside from skid row in downtown Los Angeles. I can understand if you're coming from England or Scandanavia or St Petersburg why spending the day at the beach feels good.
Thanks a lot, guys! Now my wife is looking on our home swap site for places in Montenegro. We've definitely added this beautiful country to our list, maybe a trip along the Baltic coast with Albania, Montenegro and Bosnia.
I'm glad Montenegro has sparked your interest! It would be great if you could do a home exchange, especially if the home is in the coastal area of Montenegro. Good luck!
New subscriber here. Your content is just what I’m looking for!
That is terrific! Thank you very much for watching and subscribing!
I didnt know there is such a country until I watch this video. Is a nice place with slightly over 600,000 people. Is worth a visit. Tq Ryan n Emily for this informative video. Happy travelling!!! 👍🙏😍
Thank you so much for watching!
@@snailtravelers Is a pleasure. Tqvm for this video. 🙏
Nice job guys 👍
Thanks! I think you guys were traveling when we were there, otherwise we would have liked to meet you.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Yet another entertaining and informative video - and they're getting better each time!
Thank you for the compliment!
Why you are not making a video that you can explain a cast of living food and rent not in a Beach area normal urban area
1:15????
Some of those prices are crazy because they use the Euro... I would prefer Albania..
Yes, the prices in Montenegro are in Euro and a bit higher than Albania. We have videos from Albania coming up next!
Seems like almost all the countries both of u visited "passed the tests" for retiring/long term stay...😊😊
Yes indeed! There are very few countries that we have visited that we think fail the test. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video. I'm visiting early next year for my own fact-finding mission. I'm hopeful it meets my expectations and I can retire there from Australia.
I think you will have a great trip to Montenegro! Thanks for watching our video!
@@snailtravelersamazing!! I'm also moving to Montenegro next month and I was Abit worried because I'm black but your video has raised my spirit. Thankyou!!
@@theshenanigans545 I hope you find Montenegro to be welcoming. Thanks for watching!
Interesting but the language is maybe the biggest contra, living there without learning it wouldn`t be respectful to the people and it is difficult and just spoken in this small country.
I can imagine it's a difficult language to learn. We have been trying to learn Turkish for the past two years, studying everyday with little progress. I can imagine Montenegrin would be even more difficult since (I believe) it uses the Cyrillic writing system. Thanks for the respectful comment and for watching our video.
You keep looking for a place to retire someday? Do not take too long.
We have chosen Turkey for now, but might choose another country in the future.
What about education? Its in English?
Education is in the Montenegrin language but English is taught in school.
