- Serbia Weekly with Charles #6.... Chatted with a Serbian student, Lazar Milovanov, about some of the differences between my country and his. There are many people around the world who hear Serbia or Balkan and think they aren't cultured or classy folks, WRONG! The topics we discussed:
whistling at women or catcalling, drinking in public, smoking, gambling, living at home, driving costs, and more!

Tamo daleko, daleko od mora,
tamo je selo moje, tamo je Srbija
Tamo daleko, gde cveta limun žut,
tamo je srpskoj vojsci jedini bio put
Tamo daleko, gde cveta beli krin
tamo su živote dali zajedno otac i sin
Tamo gde tiha putuje Morava
tamo mi ikona osta i moja krsna slava
Tamo gde Timok pozdravlja Veljkov Grad
tamo mi spališe crkvu u kojoj venčah se mlad
bez otačbine, na Krfu živeh ja
ali sam ponosno klic'o "Živela Srbija!"
Song give's me goosbumps
ko ne zaplace nije srbin
You shown the Serbian pride to the world, tanks for doing that. Greetings from Montenegro. Pozdrav 😉
Pozdrav is Serbia u Novi Pazar
Nice,I am going to Serbia this summer, have my flight and reservations payed for, :) can not wait.
What do you wanna see in Serbia cause there’s nothing good don’t waste money and time
@@larglind lol unlike Albania we actually have history prior to 1912
Српски патриота Albanians existed when u were in Russia s belly kido
You are a troll, or very, very narrow minded. Probably both, your name seems Swedish är du Svensk ? @@larglind But if you want I can give you a very long list of things I will visit and revisit not the first time I have been to Serbia.
@@larglind ofc.lol.Serbia exited when Alabanians were goat herders in Caucasus
I didnt even started to watch this vid but already hitted the „Like-Button“ when i heard the song in the beginning 👏🏼
Big hug for you Charles!
Thank for everything you do to promote Serbia and make it closer to everybody!
🍷❤️💪🏆☘️👑🇷🇸❤️🇺🇸🍷
Živeli! Živ bio!
Pušenje je zaista veliki problem ovde. Iskreno se nadam i želim da se to zabrani u ugostiteljskim objektima. Smučilo mi se da udišem dim i da mi smrdi odeća. >_
Moram se sloziti. Ja sam pusac ali stvarno nije u redu da idemo okolo i ugrozavamo druge. Moj je izbor da smrdim na cigarete ali nema potrebe da to namecem i drugima... Moja sestra je nepusac i ne pusim u njenoj kuci i izbegavam da pusim u njenom drustvu.
zaboravio si da dimnjeno meso duzje ostaje sveze...
Upravo tako, kad treba da izlazim negde po gradu, pa se setim da posle moram da "bacim" sve sto nosim smuci mi se zivot vise.
@Golden brother uzimajuci u obzir da nam standard ne raste a zbog usaglasavanja sa EU dva puta godisnje skacu cene cigareta, za neku godinu klinci nece ni pomisliti da pocnu da puse a matoriji ce videti da mogu ali ne kad hoce nego kad se mora.
20:39 jeeeebiga, I love it, could not pronounce it better myself :)
Veliko Srce Charles!
Cool interview, loving the series.
Thank you for making possible for people around the world to see real picture of Serbia bro. Thanks
Postoji definicija sela koja se odnosi na postotak populacije kojoj je poljoprivreda glavna grana. Selo moze da ima i vise stanovnika od grada ali se odredjuje po tom parametru...
Like before watching just for the intro music. All the best Charles, regards from Sremski Karlovci!
In vilage people from Serbia have farms and manybe one traffic light , in city’s we don’t have farm and have many traffic lights 🚦 😁 2 biggest deference...
Pro TV actually biggest difference between city (town) and village is that in village there is no buildings, there are just houses
Seinaru Danieru Yes. my comment was sarcasm 😁
A packet of cigarettes in Australia costs upward of $20 now. So nobody here can really afford it anymore. Our govt wanted to reduce the number of people dying from smoking related illness. As much as I love Serbia that was one thing that did bother me. Every restaurant had the pervasive smell of stale smoke. It can't be helped because it gets into everything.
@Nemanja ĆIrić what for?
@Nemanja ĆIrić don't apologise! It would never stop me coming to your beautiful country! Not in a million years. I love Serbia and its people.
Well I dated a Serbian for 8 years and got to know his family here and in Europe pretty well. Just lovely people. The hospitality of the people, the beauty of the landscape, it's long history. When I tried to use your language people didn't mock me and were super appreciative. Everywhere we went was alive with people having fun and I never felt unsafe. It just had an amazing vibe. I also feel a little protective over Serbia considering what it's people have been through.
@Nemanja ĆIrić nice try haha I'm with an Aussie now.
I miss srbija! Čarli daj brate neki ajvar ovamo! :)
18:20 That is so wrong. Here in Sweden we work and have at least 1 or 2 part time jobs during our student years. People don't understand that having working experience is worth a lot. I packed meat, drove DHL truck, worked at Scania Factory. After the studies (IT) i got a job quite fast not only because of my school but for my working experience. It doesn't matter what you work with its all about showing that you want to work.
yes of course, that is a problem. But one alone can only do so much. I worked as much as I could to get experience. One advantage of that is that I had more money. And the result was easier student life. Only win win. Remember when I was on vacation in the Balkans and I told my relatives that I picked strawberries for summer work, they all laughed at me. But that picking straw berry jobs got me 5000 Euros that summer.
Mirjana Mijailovic I go there to, I didn't mean that we work all summer. We have vacations to :) Pozdrav!
@@abc-eq9so I highly doubt that. Its really common here to work similar jobs, strawbarries, corn, apples etc, but you earn little below 10 euros per day for that, so you will earn 5k euros in 100 summers :D
@@JanjashDS89 it is possible. I worked in Norway a whole summer (2 months) and earned about 4500 euros. Depends on where you work and how much you are willing to work. Norwegian/Sweden salaries are quite similar.
Remember that this is also about culture. They usually grow up hearing their parents say: "Your school is your job". It is not as normal to have a part time job as a student in the Balkans as it is in Scandinavia.
Bro i just stumble on your channel. I LOVE IT MAN
Charles thanks promotion Serbia🇷🇸
Smoking is popular in Serbia because the people who do it think they are cooler! We have the same sittuation in Bulgaria where I can see 12year old kids that smoke on the streets like they dont give a fuck!
What a great interview. They guy you are interviewing seems so nice and down to earth.
Po dve limenke,opusteno.👍
Love Charles
🇷🇸+🇺🇸= Charles Cather
Ulica v mojem gradu se zvala bačkapalanka a kad se Jugoslavija raspala sada se zove Bevkova ulica pobračena grada Žalec i Bačkapalanka pozdrave iz Slovenije a ulica ima 6 blokov gdje živi puno ljudi iz Srbije i bivše Jugoslavije moj stan je preko puta u ulici Kidričeva ulica
around dvesta or trista dinara hahahahaha legendo, pozdrav braco
when i do go back to serbia next time for visit i sure like to meet you in person and have a drink with you...whatever Lazar said about serbia is true from what i remembered when i use to live in serbia
Yes, there are people who smoke to reduce stress, also there are people who smoke because they love it, but they all start to smoke from curiosity and to be cool among friends.
Charles gréât interview! Did this guy happen to work in Nantucket last fall ? He looks identical and sounds like a really nice bartender that worked at The Club Car ! If it’s him tell him Nick says hello!
In First 2 seconds you make me laugh 😂😂😉
nice intro song
Love the video bro. There are quite a lot of differences however one of the biggest things is that you can shoot guns, a flamethrower (yup seen this irl before) and set off smoke bombs whenever you please, however it's frowned upon to drink in public. It's a bit backwards however I'd rather be able to shoot guns and flamethrower than be allowed to drink. I hate alcohol anyways, i don't have a problem with people drinking however, i see what it does to people. I also hate smoking and drugs haha. 🇺🇸 🇷🇸
I believe not having a job during school here is mostly because we simply have no time... Sure some people are students and have a job but most just cant.. I study at Faculty of Forestry on University of Belgrade and sometimes my classes go from 8am to 7pm, the latest one lasts to 9pm... So working for me is pretty much imposible, plus I travel to my faculty every day from my village and spend 3 hours a day just on a trip...
On the other hand, in the US you can buy guns in a store like Idea. They just have to check your criminal records or mental stability and that's basically it.Crazy as hell😂😂😂😂
Is it so? I was in NC couple of years ago and asked my US colleagues if I could buy a gun in Wallmart and they seemed shocked by the question :)
radicr yep ,at least in St.Louis and Missouri 😂
No it is all INDIVIDUAL. Just like you Charles, i LOVE to drink in middle of the day, so every man has it's own thing ne of the day for drink. Also i walk down the street and drink beer. In matter of fact i love to walk and drink in the summer. Charles maybe we are the brothers from distant past? But one fact it is. YOU ARE SERB BRO, NO DOUBT!
Difference is, in our village people are ocupied a lot with animal farms for examples..
Omg.. you went to the park that my Baba Seca (My Baba Jelka sister) took me when I was 18 in 1988. She died a few years later 😢😭😭😭 I still can remember the ducks in that large pond and fence around it.
Australia pays over $50 for cigarette (24's). I don't smoke. You can't sell cigarettes to anyone under 18yrs old.
Thank you!💋💋💋❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
There she is again ! :)
Dudee I wanna meet you 😂😂 Just to have a little talk.
Too bad I live in Belgrade..
its interesting that approach in serbian is pric (c like cevapi)
same word basically
Charles is like Branko kockica for adults tatatatira
If you don’t have street light signals around you ,you live in village
If you don't have gays you live in a village too
Pfirtzer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this serb is little nervous while talking english... need to relax, his english is not in same level as charles, but charles is native english speaker.. no one can speak english as good as englishmen, americans, australians... he need to relax and speak...
xw00lf nije istina. Ja zivim u Americi a moj prvi jezik je Srpski i pricam Engleski kao Charles, mozda i bolje. To je istina za ostale ovde iz Srbije.
Maybe he just does not use English often
here in Serbia everyone understands English, but many do not speak well because they rarely use it
@@annas9720 ofcourse, because you train too much. immerison is key. You can't speak better than someone who is born with english all around him. You just improve your skill up to same level, or very close. my language pronunciation, for example, is much worse than my writing (which also has grammatical errors, but is understandable). That's because I rarely speak English, I have no one to train with.
@@annas9720 if that is true, why you do not wrote your reply/answer in english, but in serbian? :)
xw00lf I don’t train at all. I wrote in Serbian because I wanted to. But I have no problems with my English as you can see :)
vidi se da se usrao i da je tremaros ali decko sigurno zna engleski
Pa dobro, nije baš da je u zavidnom položaju. Malo ko se ne bi istremirao
Covek kaze kako jeste ...!
🤘🤘🤘🤘
I smoke, not more than 10-15 cigarettes a day and I hate the smoke, it goes into walls, furniture, clothes, everything smells on smoke! I don't smoke in my home, especially since I got kids, I get out on my balcony and there I have a chair and small table... I don't smoke on street, it is disgusting to see young people lighting up one after another and just throwing cigarette butts all over the street...
Funny video Charles but it's painful to listen to my fellow countryman talking English :) Hope I will meet you in Novi Sad somewhere and have a talk, coming for EXIT Fest :)
Most of young, even older,people live with their parents because of low standard, low sallary that is the diffrence. If sallaries were 200 to 300 dolars think about it, could you live with that kind of money, could you afford to live alone and pay all the bills? And the prices are no diffrent from USA for food, clothes, tech, etc . Actually that is even cheeper in USA, bills and rent is more expensive but you have much bigger sallaries and trust me when I say this, your economy can't compare to ours and you say you are in crisis :)) I love Serbia, I love our country but it's to hard to live here. It's stressfull, when you think month to month how far you can strech out your sallary and pray to god everything is working so you don't have to repair it or to buy something new, even little things or to think is there any war coming soon? I don't think average American think about that almost every day.
All americans opens up their entire mouth wide open when they speak

Charles i would you like to come to Indjija me and my brother would like to take you to that kafana F117???
20:49 im dead.
Charles your friends English is so good !!! Please tell him !
Srbija je puno bolja od USA.Pozdrav.
Sobaka 3 jeste ali u kurcu. Jesi normalan???
@@NotguiltyNotguilty Ako tako vidiš stvari onda you are guilty.
Sobaka 3 po cemu je bolja Srbija za tebe??? Nema perspektive nikakve.
Sobaka 3 ljepo je doci u posjetu ko turista ali zivjeti u Srbiji ko Srbijanjac je tesko. Gola bijeda vecinom radi jebenih politicara. Sa ovakvom korupcijom nema tu buducnosti druze.
@@NotguiltyNotguilty u americi je puno više beskučnika puno više droge,kriminala......
Novi Sad is 3rd, Niš is 2nd
After 15 years I have visited Niš recently and the city is RASPAD!
I am from Kruševac, Niš is RASPAD but bigger than Novi Sad
Ti Se drogiras decko
Teško mi je gledati koliko muca, ali nije ni njemu lako na engleskom pričati dok se snima.
Zaplakao sam dok sam slušao ovo...brate poradi malo na engleskom, inače si super klinac.
Have a drink on me rakija palenko dunjovaca and rakija of melons poz from miroslav benka
I m sure, people who not smoke, they missed the most beautiful and the most enjoyable thing what life can give you.
Charles zasto ne pricas srpski
This series is for foreigners. It's to help show the true side of Serbia
Samo me jedno nervira kad kazu registracija za auto je skupa u Srbiju, dobro ali tu je i osiguranje za auto ako slucajno lupis nekog ili sta vec? I onda kad pogledas nije skupo.
Big giveaway that you live in a village: there are no gays and second, women wear a moustache.
I live in a village and no thats not true...
i drink occassionaly *drinks beer* salim se,izgleda kao normalan lik,nadam se da ce dobiti vizu.
Oh man! Don't be seljaci and drink pivo on the street! :P
Nigga don't complain bruh. Every fucking one does that. Especially in summer.
Drink and ear where you want. That is freedom not like the USA where you get a ticket for drinking in public
Гдје нађе овог што натуца Енглески да прича о озбиљним темама
Ili noise. Lol
Charles, next time see if the guest speks English...
By your grammar, I'm pretty sure you've no right to judge someone.
daj jebote nauci taj engleski studiras 4 god fakultet stucas na svaku rec. Moj engleski iz srednje i osnovne je bolji od tvog.
kad ga ne koristis cesto to izgleda ovako .....potpuno ga razumem ...a ti kad si tako pametan sto nisi napisao na engleskom 🤔👌😉
Valjda kapiraš da ti je komentar na prvom mestu nekulturan.
Charles you want to talk about Serbia? Why do you not adress real issues my people face
Unprecedented numbers are dying from cancer now exactly 20 years after Nato bombings
Why dont you adress the corruption of our health care system and that all our doctors are leaving this country to work else where doctors are payed less then 500 uro a month in Serbia
Adress this issues you cannot only speak about the positive and paint a beautiful picture I love my country but my people are dying left and right and no ones talking about it
nisu svi ist sta kenjas? kao da smo mi svi krivi za zlocine u srebrenicu. budi sretan da neko ko nas voli zeli da pokaze najlepsu sliku o nama po svetu. a sta si ti za srbiju uradio?
@@serbia991 ja se ne pravim budala kao ti. a inace dobro sam vaspitan i imam malo pameti. dodi moze malo da podelimo
Charls , nisam te dugo video jbte. hahahahaah Greatings from Austriaaaaaaaaaa khkhkhkh !
Villages in Serbia have for shure somthnig likely like "Majore" , next level where TOWNS wich are Political and Gouvermant institutions centers ...... above this where Regional centers , for a sample east Serbias Center is Pozarevac it is a regional center and under it`s authority are aproximatly 10-12 Municipals under this centers are aproximitly up to 12 Villagys !
so Charls Serbia is almost a normal European Country ---- with to much Buerokraty !
have a nice weekend !
