@@ajeebfoodhunter Ajib brother!!! Love you buddy. Wish we can come back to Malaysia soon! But for now stay safe with all the COVID cases rising again. We will send some prayers your way!! Love you and say hi to Nur for us
Beau….Awesome…love the way you guys describe the history , and the energy of the monastery…it’s the history that we lack in Canada being a younger country…glad you’re enjoying your travels…what could be better!!!😘😘😘
Thanks for watching, as always, Bruna!! You're right about Canada being so young... our history isn't nearly as visible or lengthy. Maybe that's why I love history so much when I travel. :)
Thank you for sharing your impressions with us. As a Serb, I am really touched by Ivana s kindness and as always, by miraculous St. Basil of Ostrog adopting everyone willing to pay due respect. Savina monastery in Herceg Novi all along with its exhibits collection, the richest of all you can find in Montenegro might be your next stop, if you are interested to find out more. Enjoy your stay and god bless you
Relieved to see that Montenegro isn't all just mountain ranges. There is actually some flat land which can be used for agriculture, as we saw with you out of the windows on the bus. Tara canyon? Canyon seems to be the word they use in North America. In most of the rest of the Anglosphere they would call it a "gorge". And it was gorgeous all right!
Wow what a great video. You guys always have great videos., want to travel more often.black lake !!!! Nice little beach., I will do the swimming as well Enjoy your stay and stay blessed 😇
Wow, what a great morning to have home grown food as breakfast. No wonder Steve wiped the plate super clean 🤠🤠 Views around the Canyon n Tara Bridge are just awesome. l too wonder why it's called Black Lake where the water isn't black at all... it's so blueish /turquoise. Super interesting History by Steve about St Basil and the monastery. Great content, great vlog and it's fun watching.
Very scenic! There are more monastery of old on a high rock in Europe. Very unique. Like Steve said at the beginning, - a slice of heaven. One day I want to have a chunk oh heaven! Not just a slice...! The Black Lake is swimmable... Ivana is sensitive to surroundings...l remember we were at Dabong , and some of the chalets gave you the creeps...
In montenegro you have two 2 rivers which supply each one lake. One river is called the white river and supplies the white lake and the black river supplies the black lake. I believe thats the reason why they call it black lake Black honey we also have in 🇦🇱. Its nore bitter but also more healthy than normal honey Oh and btw try to toast a slice of bread , spread some butter and some honey on top😋😋and to make it more interesting eat it with some cheese(🇦🇱 🧀) and you have the best ever combo😋😋😋
@@JetLagWarriors ah you are welcome. And yes . Its more healthy i think cuz it has less sugar and since its made from pine trees its more rare and it has other benefits that regular honey doesnt have
Wow, the black honey looks like molasses! Yeah, probably an acquired taste...liquorice +honey taste! Can't see myself liking it a lot! That lake water sure looks pristine and those mountains so majestic! Soooo beautiful! Yes incredibly beautiful!!! Love the history and Ivana's extraordinary experience in that ancient monastery!
This is one great video of yours, as we are used to...👍 Enjoy this wonderful adventures in the Balcans or/ and ex yougoslavia countries ! The Black Lake and sorrounding mountains look like Schwitzerland, intense beauty ! Impressive history of this orthodox monastery and the faith of this pilgrims , orthodox, carholic but even muselms...to venerate the Saint Basils , "the healer" 🙏 at the Ostrog Monastry . Thank you both of you , for sharing this amazing experiences. Keep up with the good job , dear Ivana and Steve. 👏👏🎩
Hi guys 👋🏻 really stunning view of the lakes 👍 I've never heard of a black honey must be special huh 😍 the building structure of the monastery is unique and thanks for informative story Steve but too bad we can't see the inside of the building anyway I really enjoyed watching this episode 👍🥰😍
You're right, Ivana, a Catholic would feel quite affected and at home in an Orthodox shrine like that monastery. Everything would seem quite familiar. It's hard to know really what the difference is between these two ancient bodies of Christianity. Often it seems just to be a geographical difference, the Orthodox living in south-west Europe and Russia and the Catholics living in the rest of Europe and the New World. I understand plenty of Catholics go on pilgrimage to that monastery also, and even some Muslims as well. You'll be seeing lots of churches, monasteries and shrines in Romania now, both Orthodox and Catholic. Lots of them!
Before covid many types and kinds of honey use to come from Indonesia to Singapore and each one tasted different , I mean not like honey and the colors were also different , my husband is very fond of honey and he bought a jar though not tasty but health benefits that we were told were many . He finished it 😄
The Big Bopper had also been perfectly preserved in his casket before his son ( I believe) asked for him to be examined...so I guess, he must have been a Saint as well, lol. I think the casket builder became pretty popular after that...
I think it is a different Saint, but no idea abut the Basil leaf. I googled it quick and the name for Basil Leaf comes from a Greek word meaning 'King' which dates back to before Jesus was born. So totally unrelated I think
YES!! It was absolutely AMAZING! The massive Cathedral all carved from wood, and they even found some manuscripts that confirm the Gospels, dating back to, 1st or 2nd century underneath the floor!! Just amazing, but no cameras allowed unfortunately
@@JetLagWarriors And the ICONS! I had to be dragged out of that place. Nothing prepared me for what we were about to witness when we walked in. A total hidden gem!
I concur, that's one of the prettiest canyon I've ever seen! If you don't mind, I would dip the fries with that honey. It might taste nicer that way?! 🤣 And thank you for your commentary about the history! Interesting indeed! Keep them coming guys!
Ivana seems to be intense spiritually touched ⛪ I hope her pray comes true❤ Btw i would love to see a little bit more interactions with other local people. I think you will miss the beauty🏖🏔🏞🌅 of montenegro/albania now in romania, but there will be for sure other interesting places to explore. Malta would be a very interesting place to explore, beautiful nature, fantastic history, but entry only vaccinated.
Can work on adding more interactions with local people! In Montenegro was a bit hard because we were sort of vacationing in a pretty touristic area, but in Romania we will be epxloring around, off the beaten path and interacting with local villagers more!! Stay tuned :)
@@JetLagWarriors You're right, it's not easy to find opportunities in touristic places. I can say for sure that you are naturally very talented in talking to stranger and it's so fun to watch like in the albanian village or Tirana market 👏
Try the black honey with the tea. Bet would taste great, perhaps. Drinking black tea, mixed with black honey, by the black lake, in black mountain(Montenegro)
Ivan (=John) is also a popular name in majority Catholic Croatia as well. In fact, Ivan is the most common male name in Croatia and, for the girls, the most common one is.... Ivana! Ivana, I always suspected your family are Indonesian Catholics. Glad to be proven right!
Hey Steve O. Whenever you come across such monastery , could you please say a little prayer for me (if you can remember that). I would appreciate that act of kindness.
Thanks for watching!🤗

Also it's more healthy?? That's good news. :)

Wow...the drone shots in the canyon is amazing
Glad you enjoyed them!! Thanks for watching :)
In that Monastery , i with help of Saint Vasilije Ostroski finish with my problem of smoking
Wow, the black honey looks like molasses! Yeah, probably an acquired taste...liquorice +honey taste! Can't see myself liking it a lot! That lake water sure looks pristine and those mountains so majestic! Soooo beautiful! Yes incredibly beautiful!!! Love the history and Ivana's extraordinary experience in that ancient monastery!
Thanks for watching as always Fahmida!!! We had fun filming this one, so glad you enjoyed it :)
Steve "everybody is looking serious"
The kid screaming and crying in the background "........"
Wow i got chills by the story of the monastery
Yes lol, that was bad timing, but let's say everyone except the baby lol!!
@@JetLagWarriors hahahaha at least u didnt say everybody is happy 😂😂😂cuz seriously that would have been far more hilarious
Awesome..zip line along the canyon and the bridge👍
Yeah wow! The zip line looked intense, but beautiful
@@JetLagWarriors 👍
That zip line is just mad.
LOL! We considered going, but decided not to
@@JetLagWarriors
So it stayed a though,nothing else
This is one great video of yours, as we are used to...👍

Oops! Orthodox in SOUTH-EAST Europe...
Super nice videos!!!
Thanks Jim!!
The vlog is amazing. Thank you for this documentary.
How did you book this trip?
How much does it cost?
what a view on lake. six stars 😊👌
Enjoyed your video. 😍
Before covid many types and kinds of honey use to come from Indonesia to Singapore and each one tasted different , I mean not like honey and the colors were also different , my husband is very fond of honey and he bought a jar though not tasty but health benefits that we were told were many . He finished it 😄
Wow!! He might like to try the black honey, if he hasn't already tried it that is!!
The Big Bopper had also been perfectly preserved in his casket before his son ( I believe) asked for him to be examined...so I guess, he must have been a Saint as well, lol. I think the casket builder became pretty popular after that...
Wow what a Nice Place is Albanië and i love the nature there its so wonderful 👍🏻
I think it is a different Saint, but no idea abut the Basil leaf.
I googled it quick and the name for Basil Leaf comes from a Greek word meaning 'King' which dates back to before Jesus was born. So totally unrelated I think
That monastery looked very interesting! Did you guys go to the museum in the church in Berat castle, by any chance?
YES!! It was absolutely AMAZING! The massive Cathedral all carved from wood, and they even found some manuscripts that confirm the Gospels, dating back to, 1st or 2nd century underneath the floor!! Just amazing, but no cameras allowed unfortunately
@@JetLagWarriors And the ICONS! I had to be dragged out of that place. Nothing prepared me for what we were about to witness when we walked in. A total hidden gem!
I concur, that's one of the prettiest canyon I've ever seen!
If you don't mind, I would dip the fries with that honey. It might taste nicer that way?! 🤣
And thank you for your commentary about the history! Interesting indeed! Keep them coming guys!
Thanks for watching as always Sarah!!
Hmmmm fries and licorice-tasting honey... ok will try :)
Man....if you could eat that plate too, you would Steve! 🤣
LOL
wow that breakfast looks delicious
It was so great. Simple, but with great ingredients. Seems to be the story of Balkans food!!
Ivana seems to be intense spiritually touched ⛪ I hope her pray comes true❤
Btw i would love to see a little bit more interactions with other local people.
I think you will miss the beauty🏖🏔🏞🌅 of montenegro/albania now in romania, but there will be for sure other interesting places to explore. Malta would be a very interesting place to explore, beautiful nature, fantastic history, but entry only vaccinated.
Can work on adding more interactions with local people! In Montenegro was a bit hard because we were sort of vacationing in a pretty touristic area, but in Romania we will be epxloring around, off the beaten path and interacting with local villagers more!! Stay tuned :)
@@JetLagWarriors You're right, it's not easy to find opportunities in touristic places.
I can say for sure that you are naturally very talented in talking to stranger and it's so fun to watch like in the albanian village or Tirana market 👏
Try the black honey with the tea. Bet would taste great, perhaps.
Drinking black tea, mixed with black honey, by the black lake, in black mountain(Montenegro)
And Black River!
I hear Montenegro also produces a black wine, which tastes well enough if you lay it down long enough.
Black everything
Wow great comment Ivana and I both LOL'd!! Good work
Haha!!!
Durmitor means sleeping room in Romanian (dormitor) , the area , like all Balkans was heavily romanised before the slavs migrated south of the Danube.
When did you go?
So beautiful like you both
Wow thanks
Reminds me of my trip to Balkans. Montenegro, Kosovo, Croatia, Bosnia and Bulgaria. Absolutely stunning!
How did you get to Bulgaria from Western Balkans?
Bulgaria borders Serbia, so you can get in through there
7:12 Wait, could it be molasses? You would recognise that though, right?
It certainly looked like molasses!! But this was something else. It's honey that tastes like licorice
I think molasses is better lol
@@JetLagWarriors 😂 Did you wind up gifting the bottle to someone? Can't quite see you lugging it to Romania!
Ivan (=John) is also a popular name in majority Catholic Croatia as well.
In fact, Ivan is the most common male name in Croatia and, for the girls, the most common one is.... Ivana!
Ivana, I always suspected your family are Indonesian Catholics. Glad to be proven right!
HAhahaha after reading this we decided when we go to Croatia we will tell everyone there Ivana is Cro-asian lololol
@@JetLagWarriors Very clever!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have visited both (The Rockies in Canada and North Montenegro). Canada wins this contest hands down. Montenegro roads are strewn with litter.
Imagine how Green the heaven will be
Hey Steve O. Whenever you come across such monastery , could you please say a little prayer for me (if you can remember that). I would appreciate that act of kindness.
Will do Asif William! We will both try to remember
@@JetLagWarriors Thanks Steve O. You're the best. And Ivana too. God bless.
11:15
Steve: Everybody is looking serious n profound n look incredible
Baby: I wanna scream n cry loud 😭😭😭😭😭😭
😅😅😛🤭🤭
LOL Yeah that was bad timing heehee

Steve, what's ur weight brah? U have a little belly but u look slim too 🤩
Maaaaaaan the belly is new. It's going away soon (hopefully?)
I think I weigh like 170 or 165 lbs? Haven't weighed in forever
💯👍❤️ from 🇵🇰💚 Pakistan
No never Montenegro is not 👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹😈
Did anyone tell you that this was all Albanian until 1900s? Go visit some Albanian towns if u ever go back? And talk to them.
