    I cannot wait to go. All the stories from my Serbian friends sounds like a fantastic place. Especially since its only an hour from Belgrade. Yall should do a roadtrip in Muerica from Key West and all the way up the coast to Maine... You'll have a blast.. And with all your walking get some Russell Moccasins handmade there...

    The city is so quiet because most of the approximately 600,000 people work in the tourist resorts (Budva, Tivat, Herceg Novi, Ulcinj etc.) and 5% (official) are in the rest of Europe, also work there, have a second home and some also collect social benefits. It would be nice if Kotor would be so quiet. This Must-See place is overcrowded like Dubrovnik in Croatia.

    Hmmm, Podgorica metro area got 250 000 people. I am pretty sure some random city of 20 000 people in any other country of Europe will be waaaay more boring. Most boring capital city of Europe? Don't know. Maybe. I think it's MUCH better than capitals od Kosovo, Moldova, etc. Also it's way richer. Average monthly net salary in Podgorica is getting close to 1000 euros now. Most boring city of Europe? There's 1000 cities all around the Europe that are tiny compared to Podgorica. Places with 10 000, 15 000, 20 000, 25 000, 30 000 people. And even places with 100 000 people are MUCH smaller than Podgorica. Call me crazy but somehow i don't think they are all oh so very interesting. My parents moved to Podgorica(Titograd) from the mountain city in northern Montenegro, back in the 1970s. It's a city of only 30 000 people. And like a horror movie. No jobs, destroyed old communist factories, nothing. People in other parts of Montenegro are literally selling everything just to move to Podgorica. Podgorica got 6 rivers and the biggest lake of the southeastern Europe and just north of Podgorica is one of the deepest canyons of Europe with third highest motorway bridge of Europe. You just need to know the right places and it won't be boring for sure. Adriatic coastline is only 45 minute drive from Podgorica. So that's close too. Summers in Podgorica are almost as hot as Sevilla so most of the citizens of Podgorica are either at the Adriatic coastline or at the cool Montenegrin mountains. Also during the hottest parts of the summer days it's siesta time. Everyone is under the AC or some really strong fans.

But both of you are cool personalities, interesting to watch, you respect local customs, you try to learn local stuff and pronounce names and words correctly, you are not uninformed in your videos, so yeah, looks like I'm here to stay 😁 Cheers or should I say živjeli 🍻🙃

A movie you might check out if it's available on Netflix or Amazon Prime is called " Montenegro " starring Susan Anpach. A little insight into a Yugoslavian Bohemian lifestyle.

Easy place to relax with cheap food and drink around the square and as you did, catch up on work.

Maybe you are hitting 30-40% of what Balkan has to offer in terms of good food. But you can go all the way up to 90%. It's whole another world. But of course, it's hard for you to know. ua-cam.com/video/J9bth7nxGww/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/ERdPMgeunSs/v-deo.html - well this last one you probably won't like hahahha.
