@@m1lst3r89 Let me explain well. Rakija (which is often made from plums.) Although there are also other variants. Which is drunk on several occasions. Especially in connection with holy days. Has to do with how many saints we have in our faith. Which saint is honored can vary considerably per family And holy holidays. Like our Serbian Orthodox Easter. Serbian Orthodox Christmas. And our Serbian Orthodox New Year. Real traditions Real norms and values.. Often it is only when your father-in-law wants to drink rakija. With you. you get his approval to marry his daughter. A real man should be able to handle a little alcohol.. At least according to the real traditional Serbian reasoning. The only reasons why I'm not as traditional as I'd like to be. Is due to the fact that my father was not that traditional based on what he experienced as a child. He often joined me and my sister with my mother in keeping traditions alive. My mother was and is traditional in that respect. I am happy and proud to be of Serbian descent and I wouldn't have it any other way.
@@completelymindfuckeddepends, if ur are offered as only drink , and u gonna drink only that, u drink it slowly, if its like a toast then u go for a full.But also depends on a region, it could be eve town to town.But generile advice would be either drink like everyone else is in the room or dont.
All the love from Lebanon🇱🇧 to Serbia🇷🇸 ❤️ Pozdravvv I really don't know what to say, I am dating my dream girl now, I'm so lucky to have her in my life and her family around me. Her father immediately started calling me '' zete'' and invited me to drink Rakija with him 😂 and her mother treats me like her own son. Živeli 🥂 Volim te Vasi❤️
Haha! This was recommended to me and so had to watch. The dad and the rakija bit is so true. Can’t tell you how many times I was wasted by 8am because my father-in-law would give me shots to start the day. The greatest moment was when my wife told me, “you know, you can just say no? He won’t mind. He just thinks you actually want it.” “Ne hvala (No thank you.)” is your friend in these situations. 😉
from where exactly is your father-in-law? have you been to Serbia and talked with current serbian politicians, if not do you plan to come here. i find your views as balanced and reasonable but we all know that countries are not built on it, they are built on interest, as serbian president said "international law died in 1999..." did it ever existed in the first place is my question, if it can be applied only to those who can be forced to respect it, but rest are not obligated like USA or Russia, do we need to reform international laws and how are they going to be executed ?
Four years ago I went to Belgrade to watch football game (yes, Partizan vs Crvena Zvezda) and after the match we still had some time to go out and partying a little. I don't exactly know the name of that part of Belgrade, I just know it was along the river with lots of clubs there. We went to a bar and a lost my voice. All women there were drop dead gorgeous , even the waitresses. I had a neck ache from turning my head, it was like unexpected beauty contest. I am a Slovak guy, there a lot of beautiful women here, but in Belgrade it was incredible.
As a Bulgarian I'd like to share that we also use vegeta a lot! And, of course, drink loads of rakia. For the holidays we don't do chores only on certain ones and this was done mostly in the past when people had to wash clothes with their hands (not washing machines). But I still think it's so cute we have these cultural similarities 😊. Much love from your neighbours! 🇧🇬❤🇷🇸
Her father's like a hybrid of Čola and Bregović. I love it! And about the serbian music I can confirm it gets stuck in your mind very easily 😅. Love from Greece! ❤️

Great video, love Serbian girl! You included the most important aspects of every Serbian relationship -friend, father, girlfriend-boyfriend. An I like the best singing Natasha Bekvaac while washing teeth.

Related to my experience the father scene is 100% accurate, also for the wrong pronunciation of my name, after 6 years of relationship with her he still continue to call me "Matija" instead of "Matteo" ahah
that is your Serbian name. You are literally never going to escape that. Maybe the younger generations in the family will be more considerate, but still... it's either way

Yeah, it was the same when I was growing up in Serbia as a kid. One morning, I woke up, and my sister wasn't even in the house. I went into my sister's room, and there was her best friend putting on makeup. I asked, 'What are you doing here?' She replied, 'Oh, just running to school, I came to put on some makeup.' I said, 'Okay, see you later.' I went downstairs to the kitchen, and my sister's another friend was opening the kitchen cabinets. She said, 'Hey, where is Plazma? I'm rushing to school, I just need to eat something quickly.' I'm not joking, it was so normal back in Serbia. Now, I've been living in Canada for 20 years since my parents moved here when I was 15. It feels unreal that this was part of my normal life when I was in Serbia.
@@walterbrunswickYeah, usually you wouldn't hug each other, especially if you come to Slava. You will kiss the host three times on the cheeks, from right to left and back to the right one. Hehe.

We haven't used Vegeta much since the Yugoslavia break-up as it is now an imported Croatian product. There are many local clones and replacements like "Začin C" and similar from brands Aleva, Polimark, Yumis, etc

I waited for this video for a long time ever since I watched the "dating a Serbian guy" video. That video was hilarious. Unfortunately, I didn't recognize myself in this video. Sadly, I was never one of these girls. I never had a "girl tribe". My Serb roots come from Hercegovina, south-west Serbia (Zlatibor region), and Montenegro. I was raised in a strict Montenegrin tradition. I mostly hung out with my cousins! And if the guy ever approached me, he better knew my cousins. I wouldn't acknowledge him unless he came with "recommendations". 😄 Gosh, I feel old. 😄 I did enjoy the part about meeting the dad, though! 😄 I recognized all the males in my family and the pressure on my husband to drink with them!

It's not a dating story, but I started laughing when I saw the rakija on a Coca Cola bottle. I was in Vienna a few years ago on a holiday, and there wasn't many places available for dinner. So I found out there was a serbian restaurant in the backstreet of the hotel and I went there. I'm brazilian, so I don't read cyrillic, and as the waiter explained the menu to me I asked for what I wanted and spent some time waiting. No one else in the restaurant, he turns to me with a bottle without any label on it and says "fancy a drink? maybe a little taste of Serbia?". I don't drink alcohol but he was so persuasive I could not say no. I can totally relate to the video reaction: "wow, it burns". lol!
@@salsadip7453 Dear whoever did I say that? He said that he found Serbian restaurant in Vienna so I was referring to that situation with rakija also hospitality included! I’m from Montenegro and I know very well which countries are the Balkan countries! Read again.
Hey there! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw your video on the youtube. It was like a breath of fresh air in a sea of ordinary content. I was hooked from the first second and couldn't look away. It truly left me speechless and left a deep impression on my heart.
They seem pretty similar to Greek ladies only difference we used to be down here even more strict about dating our kind especially after genocide committed against us by Turks! I really love Serbia ❤ Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Hahaha my cousins from Beograd are usually in shock when they come in Zagreb. You can hear Turbo folk music everywhere you go, in Beograd I've heard it only on splavovima. We hate it :P. And yeah when you are invited on Slava, be respectful. Croat here btw.

I spent 7 years end a half in Belgrade and to tell you the truth I’m 100 per cent sincere when I say: at least I love half of Belgrade population. Gorgeous and proud girls end ladies of this gorgeous city. Pozdrav iz Albanije.
i watched myself in first part of the video :) had a tinder date in belgrade, we ordered two white wines, she was straight, to the point, sincere, sarcastic even harsh sometimes that was a beautiful combination, i simply fall into her..
That's so funny and familiar to me. The scene where the friend entered the couples bedroom is very exaggerated though, maybe the only option this to happen is if they were sisters. Greetings from neighboring Bulgaria!
When bouzouki music began spreading around Greece in the 1920’s and 1930’s, it started blending with various regional styles. In the north of Greece people played it faster, partly due to Slavic “Serbian” influence, while dancing what was already familiar, the plain Hasapiko. They started calling it the fast, or Serviko (Serbian) Hasapiko....so it turns out that there is some influence from Serbia
Love rakija ; there’s a a Balkan restaurant I went to for my birthday, got to sip chilled plum, quince, etc. rakija with my food. Dangerously tasty and strong.
After watching the lot of series of this channel, I came to get find out that Serbian, Croatian personality attracted me the most. Some people said that the French women depiction was not accurate, however let me know about their real personality. Are they really cold at first? The personality of the German women was cool. But the Balkans touched my heart.
Your videos enrich my life and provide a lot of food for thought. Straight forward, Serbian woman are all about marriage.. so it's all about Cupido. Good to know..
Serbs kiss each other three times, not twice. When invited toa Serbian home, just say yes to any food or drink that is offered to you. Makes life a lot easier.
i mean , that's your best friend the moment u take the daughter xD Not rly bad thing, at least u can get drunk and say to her "i'm there at your's , helping" works anytime ....
@@m1lst3r89, we're more flexible about that. It's more about preservation of culture (which anyone can participate in) and traditional in the sense we want a family life and traditional gender roles. Mixed marriages are very common (and healthy).
@@HelerifiKtion i don't see how mixed marriages can be healthy and traditional. Also, mixed marriages are not really common. It's not like that majority of Serbian popularion picks non Serbian people. Plus, if you are not Serb, you should not be allowed to dance kolo.
@@m1lst3r89, of course you don't. Do you know what inbreeding does to absolutely every people ever? Take a look at the Habsburgs. You have to mix genes if you want a healthy population. Mixing cultures also leads to spreading tolerance between cultures, it's a type of diplomacy. What's "Serbian" nowadays is actually a genetic soup that allows for people to be healthy and continue existing. There isn't a single Serbian family that doesn't have mixed genes. Whenever someone historically tried that genetic purity, they ruined their own population and had to forcefully fix it via mass migrations, raping of women, and/or some type of devshirme. It's much better to create fraternisation of different populations.
5:11 They kissed each other two instead of three times. Also "being conservative when it comes to relationships and a sense of humor goes a long way"??? Hahahaha good one
Although I’m personally not a fan of the traditional values, I love watching this as a Bulgarian since our dating/relationships cultures are exactly the same
@@GerMFnU1848Sax advice for you - dont bring any politics topic, always ask questions (if you dont know something or if you are interested in topic) and be honest.
How funny this video is , I went to Serbia several years ago in Zitiste for a friend's bother's wedding. During the wedding ceremony, one of the hosts told me that they are going to make a Serbian out of me by dinking rakija. I was drinking Jelen beer, after my second shot of rakija, I realized that he was not kidding and kept on bringing shots of rakija. What I observed is that Serbian women are very traditional and know that they want. From what I learned is that they want relationships not casual dating . Overall Serbians are very hospitable and want to know you. During the wedding tradition, my friends brother went to his future bride's house and presented himself to his future mother in-law. An entourage with an accordion player was playing traditional Serbian songs and passed around a wooden cask full of rakya, at the mother in-law's house. Later on, we went to the wedding hall with about 200 people. The 2nd day another celebration, this time with a regular band that also played traditional Serbia music, another day of rakiya and Jelen but only family and close friends and us from the U.S. What a fun vacation.
I used to date an American. He would come to pick me up and wait in the parking lot for me. I used to think how disrespectful that was of him because in our culture you’re suppose to come to our house, its an expectation. He used to think how rude I was for not inviting him because that was the expectation in American culture 😂😂😂😂
@@kiiryth9835 I am croat and I dont consider croatia balkan neither I consider balkans to be a realistic group in cultural and geographical way.Balkans should be hald island and somehow its not.If balkans were island it would be greece albania macedonia parts of south serbia and south west bulgaria but it somehows spreding from greece to hungary to slovenia to turky to fucking moldova which doesnt makes any sance in any way.Some of this groups dont even have any cultural etnich connection.There is centraln european there is longobard/north italian culture there is oriental greek ortodox east european and etc.For exemple croatia as slovenia as serbia and bulgaria share that slavic features in culture even tho slovenianas and croats are central european and longobard north italy like and bosnians oriental and serbs greek ortodox and bulgarian greek ortodox and east european.
I'm 28 but I'm kinda old-fashioned. I don't use Tinder because I prefer meeting someone authentically and naturally. Is Tinder popular in Serbia just like the West?
if u wanna find a serbian girl ur best bet would probably be a club or cafe (in belgrade because thats where most non serbs go) and yes maybe a dating site but idk if tinder is what they use
The belief of not doing housework (laundry and cleaning) during religious holidays because it "brings bad luck" is an ancient way for women to rest from "women's" household chores.

Married to a Serbian lady for more than 12 years…really made me laugh. The Serbian father-in-law scene is totally legit
Why?
@@m1lst3r89
Let me explain well.
Rakija
(which is often made from plums.)
Although there are also other variants.
Which is drunk on several occasions.
Especially in connection with holy days.
Has to do with how many saints we have in our faith.
Which saint is honored can vary considerably per family
And holy holidays.
Like our
Serbian Orthodox Easter.
Serbian Orthodox Christmas.
And our Serbian Orthodox New Year.
Real traditions
Real norms and values..
Often it is only when your father-in-law wants to drink rakija. With you.
you get his approval to marry his daughter.
A real man should be able to handle a little alcohol..
At least according to the real traditional Serbian reasoning.
The only reasons why I'm not as traditional as I'd like to be.
Is due to the fact that my father was not that traditional based on what he experienced as a child.
He often joined me and my sister with my mother in keeping traditions alive.
My mother was and is traditional in that respect.
I am happy and proud to be of Serbian descent and I wouldn't have it any other way.
@@zokilauda I know all about rakija and what is, I was confused by the statement of the OP. Not every father drinks rakija or offers rakija.
@@m1lst3r89
Although that rarely occurs in Serbia,
you do have a point.
You must be very tall.
LMFAO as a Serbian man I couldn't stop laughing, the rakija in a coke bottle (or any random bottle) is so fucking accurate especially
Should one drink it in one go or not?
Rakija is pretty rough. So if u ain't used to it go slow. Traditionally we shot it
Not just Serbs but whole east Europe. Nobody is Serb you are not people from skies.

It's not a dating story, but I started laughing when I saw the rakija on a Coca Cola bottle. I was in Vienna a few years ago on a holiday, and there wasn't many places available for dinner. So I found out there was a serbian restaurant in the backstreet of the hotel and I went there. I'm brazilian, so I don't read cyrillic, and as the waiter explained the menu to me I asked for what I wanted and spent some time waiting.
No one else in the restaurant, he turns to me with a bottle without any label on it and says "fancy a drink? maybe a little taste of Serbia?". I don't drink alcohol but he was so persuasive I could not say no. I can totally relate to the video reaction: "wow, it burns". lol!
Hahaha yep that’s typical for a lot of people in ex-Yugoslavian countries 😂 Rakija is also a medicine for us here :)
@@iss2500dear sir, Vienna isn’t an ex Yugoslav country 😅
@@salsadip7453 Dear whoever did I say that? He said that he found Serbian restaurant in Vienna so I was referring to that situation with rakija also hospitality included! I’m from Montenegro and I know very well which countries are the Balkan countries! Read again.
@@iss2500Dear Sir Isodora (a female name)😅😅😅
@@salsadip7453 but it is full of ex-Yugoslavs.
Haha amazing video. As a Serb I can verify that this video is 100% true.
Hey there! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw your video on the youtube. It was like a breath of fresh air in a sea of ordinary content. I was hooked from the first second and couldn't look away. It truly left me speechless and left a deep impression on my heart.
They seem pretty similar to Greek ladies only difference we used to be down here even more strict about dating our kind especially after genocide committed against us by Turks! I really love Serbia ❤ Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Greek women thank god are more liberal
Hahaha my cousins from Beograd are usually in shock when they come in Zagreb. You can hear Turbo folk music everywhere you go, in Beograd I've heard it only on splavovima. We hate it :P. And yeah when you are invited on Slava, be respectful. Croat here btw.
And even if you are not invited to slava you can come, everyone is invited 😂❤
@@valentinasjenicic5918Napisi datum i ostavi adresu ako je to bas tako 😂. ...Na Slavu se zove jednom,a ti pozvani se vise ne zovu,to je tradicija i prvo treba nauciti nju pa tek onda Engleski...
I love it how I can relate and I've never consider myself a typical Serbian girl. Now when I look at it, we're all like this.
Pa naravno da jeste...

The last scene where he sings the song 😂😂😂😂
Omg this is sooo good 😂😂😂
I am in a relationship with a serbian guy and we have an amount pf at least 5kg Vegeta and 7 packages of plazma (ane Nescafe) at home. When his family is coming,they bring so much with them 😁
I think he's not Serbian if he has open relationship lol
I spent 7 years end a half in Belgrade and to tell you the truth I’m 100 per cent sincere when I say: at least I love half of Belgrade population. Gorgeous and proud girls end ladies of this gorgeous city. Pozdrav iz Albanije.
i watched myself in first part of the video :) had a tinder date in belgrade, we ordered two white wines, she was straight, to the point, sincere, sarcastic even harsh sometimes
that was a beautiful combination, i simply fall into her..
I can see where Serbs and Chinese align on a couple of things: Man pays and when you come to someones house you bring gifts.
I've been waiting for this one! Love it!
That's so funny and familiar to me. The scene where the friend entered the couples bedroom is very exaggerated though, maybe the only option this to happen is if they were sisters. Greetings from neighboring Bulgaria!
Just an idea: Make one video about a Paraguayan woman.
Paraguay is a not well known country.
When bouzouki music began spreading around Greece in the 1920’s and 1930’s, it started blending with various regional styles. In the north of Greece people played it faster, partly due to Slavic “Serbian” influence, while dancing what was already familiar, the plain Hasapiko. They started calling it the fast, or Serviko (Serbian) Hasapiko....so it turns out that there is some influence from Serbia
Love rakija ; there’s a a Balkan restaurant I went to for my birthday, got to sip chilled plum, quince, etc. rakija with my food. Dangerously tasty and strong.
Sis is like *I’m not taking care of you guys tonight…*
😂😂😂
After watching the lot of series of this channel, I came to get find out that Serbian, Croatian personality attracted me the most. Some people said that the French women depiction was not accurate, however let me know about their real personality. Are they really cold at first? The personality of the German women was cool. But the Balkans touched my heart.
was fun! the actors where really funny :)
That was so incredibly cute! It warmed my heart and made me laugh! ❤😆
looks like I am moving to Serbia...
Im from Spain and im dating a Serbian girl, and all of this video is totally accurated
I think I would love a Serbian woman! Reminds me of my women back home.
Your videos enrich my life and provide a lot of food for thought. Straight forward, Serbian woman are all about marriage.. so it's all about Cupido. Good to know..
Serbs kiss each other three times, not twice. When invited toa Serbian home, just say yes to any food or drink that is offered to you. Makes life a lot easier.
Not all kiss 3, some 2.
They are croatian Serbs. @@frostflower5555
OMG this is so me & my family❤
Damn... Tako to i ide u Srbiji :D Spot on! :D
I‘m married to a Serbian woman for 6 years and all this is true 😅
Wow, I really like the dude in this video. He's charming and has a quaint yet comedic acting style.
This was awesome! Thanks so much.
Serbian dad makes for an ideal father-in-law 😂
i mean , that's your best friend the moment u take the daughter xD Not rly bad thing, at least u can get drunk and say to her "i'm there at your's , helping" works anytime ....
With rakija you also inherit the obligation to safeguard his daughter, though, so be ready 🤣
Serbian women are amazing, greetings from Russia ❤️
Lol
Srpske zene je monogo lijepe ❤
Nice video...Well done you Serbs, you preserve your traditional values....in addition I like when Marina also appears in videos 😊
Well...preserving tradition should mean dating inside your own nationality.
Tradition is fiction in Serbia. The gangster culture rules here, criminals are worshiped - right after you go back from the Church.
@@m1lst3r89, we're more flexible about that. It's more about preservation of culture (which anyone can participate in) and traditional in the sense we want a family life and traditional gender roles.
Mixed marriages are very common (and healthy).
@@HelerifiKtion i don't see how mixed marriages can be healthy and traditional. Also, mixed marriages are not really common. It's not like that majority of Serbian popularion picks non Serbian people. Plus, if you are not Serb, you should not be allowed to dance kolo.
@@m1lst3r89, of course you don't. Do you know what inbreeding does to absolutely every people ever? Take a look at the Habsburgs. You have to mix genes if you want a healthy population. Mixing cultures also leads to spreading tolerance between cultures, it's a type of diplomacy.
What's "Serbian" nowadays is actually a genetic soup that allows for people to be healthy and continue existing. There isn't a single Serbian family that doesn't have mixed genes. Whenever someone historically tried that genetic purity, they ruined their own population and had to forcefully fix it via mass migrations, raping of women, and/or some type of devshirme. It's much better to create fraternisation of different populations.
Can you do the Swiss man next, please 🙏🙏?
Hola Marina! Saludos desde Miami, Florida, Estados Unidos 🇺🇲
5:11 They kissed each other two instead of three times. Also "being conservative when it comes to relationships and a sense of humor goes a long way"??? Hahahaha good one
Ahahahaha... I flipped over.🤣
Lmao that scene with the rakija that reminds me to much of myself when I drink oof.
Although I’m personally not a fan of the traditional values, I love watching this as a Bulgarian since our dating/relationships cultures are exactly the same
Yeah, that's what my beautuful Serb sisters are all about and that is why I love them. Thanks for this video, greetings from Serbia!
Perhaps I should go to Belgrade
@@maxhalsted5381 or any other city in Serbia
Gonna marry me a Balkan lass. I had a Croatian girlfriend, but to marry her? Nah man I want a Serbian wife

@@GerMFnU1848Sax advice for you - dont bring any politics topic, always ask questions (if you dont know something or if you are interested in topic) and be honest.
How funny this video is , I went to Serbia several years ago in Zitiste for a friend's bother's wedding. During the wedding ceremony, one of the hosts told me that they are going to make a Serbian out of me by dinking rakija. I was drinking Jelen beer, after my second shot of rakija, I realized that he was not kidding and kept on bringing shots of rakija. What I observed is that Serbian women are very traditional and know that they want. From what I learned is that they want relationships not casual dating . Overall Serbians are very hospitable and want to know you. During the wedding tradition, my friends brother went to his future bride's house and presented himself to his future mother in-law. An entourage with an accordion player was playing traditional Serbian songs and passed around a wooden cask full of rakya, at the mother in-law's house. Later on, we went to the wedding hall with about 200 people. The 2nd day another celebration, this time with a regular band that also played traditional Serbia music, another day of rakiya and Jelen but only family and close friends and us from the U.S. What a fun vacation.
The bill sharing joke was best, ahahahahaha
Him: I am running out of underwear.
Her: You can borrow mine, it can strach.😂🤣
Funny how they calling him Andre when his name is Andrew. The booze is in a cola bottle. Must be home made.
@krs48, people in Serbia (and the rest of ex Yugoslavia) use ANDRE, not Andrew. Different spelling of the name.
Andrej
Andre is Spanish of Andrew.
It's homemade alright😅
@@ellobopoderososdl4596 Isn't that Andrés?
I used to date an American. He would come to pick me up and wait in the parking lot for me. I used to think how disrespectful that was of him because in our culture you’re suppose to come to our house, its an expectation. He used to think how rude I was for not inviting him because that was the expectation in American culture 😂😂😂😂
@ellamedic8963 As an American I love Serbian women
Has anyone noticed that rajika was in Cocla bottles in this video and the Croatian one XD
Both were part of the same country so many things are the same.
Looooved it! Very nice as ALL of your videos!!!
Thank you!
This apply for all the Balkan countries
It doesnt because what you moust likely consider balkan is much more diverse culturaly,geneticly than you can imagene.
@@abpast5319 yeah but these are all still things that are common throughout all (or at least most) of the balkan countries
@@kiiryth9835 no
@@abpast5319 are you even balkan lol
@@kiiryth9835 I am croat and I dont consider croatia balkan neither I consider balkans to be a realistic group in cultural and geographical way.Balkans should be hald island and somehow its not.If balkans were island it would be greece albania macedonia parts of south serbia and south west bulgaria but it somehows spreding from greece to hungary to slovenia to turky to fucking moldova which doesnt makes any sance in any way.Some of this groups dont even have any cultural etnich connection.There is centraln european there is longobard/north italian culture there is oriental greek ortodox east european and etc.For exemple croatia as slovenia as serbia and bulgaria share that slavic features in culture even tho slovenianas and croats are central european and longobard north italy like and bosnians oriental and serbs greek ortodox and bulgarian greek ortodox and east european.
I LMAO,. Respect to the Serbian ladies. You make life fun. Živela i tri prsta!
Save tačno! Bravo!
As a Russian man still searching for love in japan if i find no luck in japan I'll try Serbia
🇷🇺❤🇷🇸
ahaha one of my roomates is serbian, and this is pretty spot on
I'm 28 but I'm kinda old-fashioned. I don't use Tinder because I prefer meeting someone authentically and naturally. Is Tinder popular in Serbia just like the West?
if u wanna find a serbian girl ur best bet would probably be a club or cafe (in belgrade because thats where most non serbs go) and yes maybe a dating site but idk if tinder is what they use
In the big city.
Not at all. It's mostly foreigners who are on Tinder and other dating apps.
This 16 year girl who I met on Discord who is Serbian pretty much talked to me that way especially about clothes 😭
The belief of not doing housework (laundry and cleaning) during religious holidays because it "brings bad luck" is an ancient way for women to rest from "women's" household chores.
Srpkinje su lenje, istina. Mladja generacija pogotovo.
Ma daj im jos dana sta prosipate glupost, pa ni mi ne radimo nista, onda smo svi lenji, i da vam kazem nesto, evo bas me boli uvo
Помаже бог.
Драго ми је да видим овај видео из далеке Америке. Тешко је сигурно одржавати традицију, културе итд.
Живи били и свако добро.
Rakija isn't hard alcohol, it's a gentle kiss on our taste buds.

Zaboravi na pozive 😄😄 ... hoces da se vidis sa drugaricom? bapni na vrata 😄❤️❤️❤️
This is definitely for all ex-Yugoslavian countries,not all Balkan countries what many people wrote!☺️
8:18 🤣😆 Haha
I would even say all Slavian countries!! 🤣
@@nataliasolita8152 You probably meant Slavic…hmm we’re similar yes- we had Ottomans here,Italians etc so it’s a mix here of a lot of things but also in the Balkans in general. My people here are special..no one is hospitable,nice,warm like us but temperamental at the same time :) We share this about drinking thing for sure,also our language is Slavic-South Slavic :) I’m from Montenegro:)
@@iss2500 I did mean Slavic, thank you :) I am Russian myself and find everything in the video true for my country too.
I AM SO IN LOVE WITH BALCANS and slavs in general ahahahah luv you Eastern Europeans !!!!!
There’s missing the most important phrase from the Serbian women “what’s your zodiac sign?”
Yes great point. I heard the same when I was in Belgrade, but then we decided to ask girls on the street and some were really into it, but others not so much
@@DatingBeyondBorders damn we're really into it. my friend once asked me about some guy's zodiac and when I told here I didn't know she was like "How didn't you ask for his zodiac sign????" so yes, a lot of my friends know their star sign and the moon and the rising sign and we like gossiping about people in that way.
This video is great and so funny! Too bad I'm already married. LOL!
1:59 Traditional drink, cleaner, etc
I quite enjoyed this
Lots of love to Serbia from Israel 🇮🇱🇷🇸
I always meet some serbs tourists here and they are very funny😂
I love serbs to. They're very warm and mediterranean like jews and I don't know if you know it, rakia is slivovitz, which makes my galitzianer heart sing.
