Kosovo is 100% different from the news we are used to hearing on TV, I was just amazed by the people from Kosovo when I was there 2 months ago, they were very friendly and the food was fantastic "Flia: 👌
Didn't see this coming, but I'm loving this. It's a bit geography, a bit history, a bit religion (Oh, the humanities) and thoroughly enjoyable. Can't wait for the next installment (and hopefully future adventures)
The plan was to have this in the background while I was doing housework, but I ended up so interested that I just sat down and watched. So it is basically your fault I was less productive today ;-) Being in my own little bubble here in New Zealand I was clueless about Kosovo, and I really enjoyed learning about it :-)
This is very cool - I’d never heard of Kosovo before but now on the radar. Thanks Matthew! Keep up the travels, possibly with a compass! Pop and a bar is a great segment!
Matthew, I was directed to your channel by other Death By Monsters fans since I was wondering what you guys have been up to since the show ended. What are the chances your top video happens to be you visiting the country my sister will be moving to? Been watching a lot of Kosovo videos lately to learn about the country. Great video!
Oh that's awesome! I'm glad you found me here. There are going to be a lot of videos coming in the next year. And that's a funny coincidence or maybe... some type of weird alien mind control there's no way to tell.
@ Great callback! 🤣 but you might be right, especially since I hadn’t given Kosovo a thought until recently. I can’t wait to visit Kosovo. Looking forward to more of your videos in the near future. I’ve been enjoying them
I have just returned from a holiday touring Kosova from Pristina, to Pec, to Prizren and over the mountain border crossing to N Macedonia. The only danger I came across in Kosovo was the odd maniac driver, but that is an eastern European thing from my experience. I never felt any discomfort in Kosovo even after dark.
Okay, this is brilliant and awesome and so the way I prefer to travel, too. I'm excited to stay tuned and please keep it up! Loyal fan from DxM and This Game is Broken and it's so cool to see you in your travel element, too!
Hey Matthew. Love the video. I also tend to read up on the history of the places I visit! Please continue trying the pops & bars and petting all the animals :) One tiny bit of (hopefully constructive?) criticism: I miss a little intro in which you explain what you are doing. If it's just a oneshot, ignore me. But if you're shooting a series (more of Pristina? more countries later?) you just gave us an appetiser without us knowing there is a menu. Maybe also some more flavour text in the description (date of filming might be important if Pristina goes through more architectural changes in the next few years)? But, keeping in line with my metaphor: it tastes like more!
Looks like a great place. I have vague memories watching dire news reports on TV about Kosovo when I was a kid (Late 90s?) but never really thought much of it since.
That's why I wanted to go, because people only think about war when they hear Kosovo, I know I did, so I wanted to discover the real Kosovo if I could.
You should come to Vukovar. There's nothing much to see, but it is also obscure and kind of interesting. I should know, I'm from there. 🙃 People usually associate Croatia with the seaside, but continental part is interesting as well.
@@YesLandTravel I'm also surprised you call it pop, as I was under the impression that it's a very Midwest USA name for "soda". I, too, call it pop, and recognize it as the correct name, so I'm glad you've been enlightened!
You chose a wet Sunday to Visit Pristina when most of the people are out on their villas in the west of Kosovo. Pristina should be visited between Monday and Saturday
Love the food segment. I feel the cow milk bar may have tainted your enjoyment of the drink. I think we need to hear whether the pop gave you eagle wings?
The need to specify that it is cow milk is so vital to their sales and marketing that it's literally the name of the candy bar. Not gonna lie - if I found a row in a market of various animal milk bars, cow would be my last stop; you're already off the beaten path, might as well make it an adventure.
I'd have to disagree on the Golden eagle drink. It tastes nothing like Red bull infact red bulls are one of the worst tasting energy drinks out there. Don't even know how red bull the brand got so big. Maybe the chocolate bar ruined the taste test of the energy drink, you should've started with the drink instead
Kosovo is my hometown and it’s not dangerous at all 🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰❤️❤️❤️❤️you will meet the most friendliest people in the world for sure
I agree, I had a wonderful time and met some fantastic people!
❤
Im from Israel, its safe is i go?
@@פאואןשיינרofcourse, albanians have hidden jews in Ww2 there are many Dokumentations ablut that
I LOVE it! Such a great first day and here for Pop and a Bar! Can’t wait to see more of the haunted Bazaar! Yay!
Wait until you're with me on a trip!

It's a wonderful country!
I live in kososvo
I just visited Peja and Prizren and safer that tons of places I’ve been like France cities, big US cities, Caribbean etc.
I love Moonpie so much.
Also I think my favorite thing is the facial expressions during "Pop and a Bar"
Moon Pie was a dream boat.
I really hope "Pop and a Bar" becomes a long-running feature.
Yup that's a drink!
Didn't see this coming, but I'm loving this. It's a bit geography, a bit history, a bit religion (Oh, the humanities) and thoroughly enjoyable. Can't wait for the next installment (and hopefully future adventures)
Thank you for coming over and watching Hawkskull! There will be more videos and adventures 100 percent
Thank you for visiting our beautiful country 🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰 hope you enjoyed it
I loved it
My favorite game reviewer is doing my favorite kind of vlog (travel!)?? YAY! I can't wait to see your next adventure:)
haha, well thank you for coming along for the ride!

I apologise profusely. hehe
Yay, I'm so happy that you're making your travel vlog channel!
It's been a long time coming!
Crazy how many views you got on this first video! Congrats.
Love this series and can't wait for more
I'm hoping the channel works out, I'm working hard and giving it my best shot.
This is very cool - I’d never heard of Kosovo before but now on the radar. Thanks Matthew! Keep up the travels, possibly with a compass! Pop and a bar is a great segment!
There will be many more Pops and Bars!
100th subscriber and I'm so here for this journey!!
Thank you Kat! I mean LA is somewhere I could always visit.
Wow. This is fantastic! Glad to see you're also representing Watch It Played with the plaid.
Haha, well of course!
Hey, Kosovo also has Lads! Lads! Lads!
Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads! Lads!
Get this man a Travel Channel series !!
That would be the dream
I could not be happier you are doing this!! This is so interesting and great!!
It's really what I've had my heart set on for a long time so thank you for watching.

Let’s goooo! Can’t wait to watch those whole vid!
Thank you for watching Samual!
Looking forward to seeing more!
What's your link to Kosovo? Relatives or just interested in cool countries?
No link other than curiosity and a few good books I've read in the past. And yeah there are more videos coming for sure!
Died at the bit where the construction hit and your response was "goddamn it" 😆
Haha, it be the last time that happens and thank you for coming over to watch Taylor!
Dogs, cats, snacks, and NEW HATS! Can't wait to see what's coming next, Matthew!!
There's a lot more to come Hornist. Thank you for watching
Planning to visit Serbia, Kosovo, North Macedonia in that order this video was helpful to preview what’s to come in my Balkan adventures
I just went to bosnia which was amazing honestly and my plan is to go to all of the Balkens at some point for sure
Okay, this is brilliant and awesome and so the way I prefer to travel, too. I'm excited to stay tuned and please keep it up! Loyal fan from DxM and This Game is Broken and it's so cool to see you in your travel element, too!
Hey Hayley, thank you for joining me on to a new project that really means a lot to me and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Great video, really digging your style and your interest in history, culture and food.
Thank you! I appreciate that a lot

That's a good idea, I'll think about adding stuff like that. I think some can be solved with a channel trailer at some point in the future as well.
@@YesLandTravel a channel trailer would be great! And you can use it for promo on other channels!
Well that was new and unexpected but very interesting.....Mathew Jude -Board Gamer, Prince of DxM and now Travel guide 🙂
I'm certainly doing the scattershot approach to content creation.
Awesome new channel and video! What's your process for learning about the history and life in the place you're travelling to?
I read a bunch of books for this trip, my favourite was Shadowplay by Tim Marshall. But I've always been fascinated with the Balkans.
that's as close to translating I can get to and I am Kosovan but live in london
Looks like a great place. I have vague memories watching dire news reports on TV about Kosovo when I was a kid (Late 90s?) but never really thought much of it since.
That's why I wanted to go, because people only think about war when they hear Kosovo, I know I did, so I wanted to discover the real Kosovo if I could.
Loved this! Can't wait to watch more
There will be lots more for sure!
Nice one Matthew! The only thing that could possibly make it better is an Indiana Jones style map! 😃
I at least need the hat.
What'up-Enjoyed- well .))
Thank you for watching! Yuhh yuhh!
So many questions. Why? When?? Are we still up for recording on Sunday? Is my house on fire?
haha, I'll fill you in on Sunday! Also yes.
@@YesLandTravel Yes recording or yes his house is on fire ?😊
Cowmilk chocklade is not made in Kosovo, also Golden Egale is better in can than bottle but you wanted cheap :)
Next time i'll get a can for sure.
How do we get Moon Pie a contract to be your official co-host? Love this new series! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Moon Pie would have made a great travel buddy. There are some pretty great dogs coming up I tell ya. Thank you for coming along Lizzy.
@@YesLandTravel yessss! Come for the humor, stay for the dogs. Excited to see more :)
I had a lovely time in Pristina! What a wonderful part of the world with amazing people
I totally agree, it's a wonderful town and the people that I met were fantastic.
"look at the size of those hands" things people say when playing Dragon Age: Origins
or Dishonored!
Absolutely.
Thank you for this journey😊
Thank you for watching.
Greetings from Hull, UK… hotel… but hoping for more travel videos
It's a valid place to me and yes! There are more to come!
You should come to Vukovar. There's nothing much to see, but it is also obscure and kind of interesting. I should know, I'm from there. 🙃
People usually associate Croatia with the seaside, but continental part is interesting as well.
Heck yeah, Croatia is on my list of places to visit for sure.
Now that you have 100 subscribers, all I ask is you remember us less important people ;-)
I'll do my very best haha
Kosovo is wonderful place not dangerous at all my hometown Thnaks for visiting ❤
I agree, it as a great privilege to get to visit such a wonderful place.
I am HERE for the Pop and a Bar bit! Love it. You should make a Pop and a Bar spinoff series of videos.
I might try to do something like that, people seem to enjoy that part of the videos for sure.
@@YesLandTravel I'm also surprised you call it pop, as I was under the impression that it's a very Midwest USA name for "soda". I, too, call it pop, and recognize it as the correct name, so I'm glad you've been enlightened!
haha my G you're on my neighborhood at the beginning of the video...greeting from NYC
Haha, well thank you for watching Genc!
Your title is misleading, Kosovo is the safest place in Europe. 😅
Glad your showing that
Kosovo was a wonderful place and I'm so happy to have been able to visit
Thats how i will remember you ;)
I knew I could rely on you
Hi sassqueen24
You chose a wet Sunday to Visit Pristina when most of the people are out on their villas in the west of Kosovo. Pristina should be visited between Monday and Saturday
Now I know.
I hope you enjoyed your time here
I really did, I have very fond memories of Kosovo and really hope I get to go back one day.
Love the food segment. I feel the cow milk bar may have tainted your enjoyment of the drink. I think we need to hear whether the pop gave you eagle wings?
You'll see in the next video that I very much don't have the wings I wish I had.
Pop and a Bar is gonna keep me coming back!
It's going to be a pretty regular feature! Thank's for watching Don.
I cannot tell you how much I want someone to commission you to make this into a TV show called 'Matthew Goes Places and Buys Hats'.
Look, I'm in to this plan big time.
I'm glad this video is back! I look forward to many more :)
So your first recorded abroad trip was in Kosovo?
Yeah this is the first trip I've filmed but it won't be my last! I'm off again in 2 days!
I'm terrible with getting to market at the proper day and hour... its always a problem.
I'm off again in 2 days, hoping to film another 6 videos!
LoL. It's totally the way I tourist - just walk around with a basic idea of a plan and make up the rest as I go 😁
I have a plan... ish
Can you hurry up and post the next video please. I feel like you owe us this free thing! I demand entertainment!
It's out today!!
Oh geezz, I'm lost!
T shirt coming soon
At some point will you be talking about why you chose Pristina? It's an interesting choice.
Just somewhere I've always wanted to go and a place I thought would make a good first series.
Kosovo is the safest country in Europe. A country with 0 homless. Beautiful place.
Matthew Jude visits a city that matches his baseline mood...
Big time. I felt right at home.
Man in Kosovo you are safer than in UK, welcome to my country, enjoy it !
I think you might be right. I loved Kosovo.
Plis or Qeleshe is quite ancient, it goes back to ancient greek times. No kidding!
I didn't realise that. I'm happy I have mine it reminds me of this trip when ever I see it.
@@YesLandTravel cool cool, glad you still have it.
That’s the world oldest hat worn by the people over 2000 years a go.
I love history like that. Welcome to the channel and thank you for watching!
Glad to see you visiting in Kosovo which I live in
I had a great time, thank you for watching
Hey man can you goo to peja next thats were i live
Very interesting!
Yuhhh yuhhh
hey Pristina you are our champion hey pristina you are our heart
🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰
Is the most beautiful Country in the europe dude
The need to specify that it is cow milk is so vital to their sales and marketing that it's literally the name of the candy bar. Not gonna lie - if I found a row in a market of various animal milk bars, cow would be my last stop; you're already off the beaten path, might as well make it an adventure.
I don't want to venture much past cow milk I'll be honest
1:01 you are right outside my house hahahaha
Haha, that's so cool.
You bloody legend
I should have a statue really.
@@YesLandTravel well obviously! Maybe they could put a pair of glasses and a check shirt on one they already have and convert it to a Jude statue?
"thick coffee" is turkish coffee?
Yeah it is I think you're right. Turns out it's the Ottoman influence which I learnt later on.
Its been 23 years since war ended and there are people who still thinks Kosovo is dangerous?
Could've gotten that for 3 euros mate.
I'm not the best at haggling...
@7:50 anti-aircraft gun
That makes way more sense than what I said! Thank you Alaena!
you would look Albanian with an tan ;)
My dad looks 100% Albanian
THANK YOU - BEAUTIFUL 🙏 🐾🦮🐾💙🐈⬛🐾❤🐕🙏
🇦🇱🇽🇰❤️
is turkey better than kosovo
Totally different places so I couldn't compare them at all. Both wonderful in their own ways.
puppy!!!
Wait until you see the puppy in the next video... he's the star.
why bizzare are you crazy or grazy wich one ?hehehehe
Kosovo aint dangerous. Its peaceful!
That's certainly what I found. I had a wonderful time there.
it is
Mmmmm, day old redbull
Yuhh yuhh!
Please do visit India ☺️
I 100% will be doing that!!! Where in India should I go? That's the question!
@@YesLandTravel My favourite places to be in India is Meghalaya, Maharashtra and Bihar 🙂
Ppl lie & Serbia lie world before 99 say kosovo ppl hawe tail 😆 they weating to see those tails lie lie
Kosovo ❤️ serbia
Stop trashing Kosovo.

Mos e teproni me keto lajme,rrezik eshte kudo,ne Kosovë nuk ka rrezik.
kosovo is great country
Hahah why you think Kosovo is dangerous
It's commonly believed to be a dangerous country, which is why I was happy to go and prove people wrong and show that it isn't.
