Serbia
... and we were off again in the gloom of a damp Serbian twilight. The rough plan was to find a hotel in Belgrade. For financial reasons we lowered our expectations and pulled in to a Serbian truck stop. Why pay for beds if we have beds on the bus ? We even ...
Belgrade, Serbia
... , I notice that the guy next to me has a computer in English, so I strike up a conversation with him. He's actually from Belgrade and just is returning from a two-week vacation in Holland. (Side note: He uses electronics in English because it's easier to ...
Somewhere between Belgrade and Sofia...
... drawn to a suspicious man who kept walking past my compartment, eyeing me with the malevolent look of a clichéd TV serial killer, and twiddling adroitly between his fingers a flick knife. How reassuring, I thought, to be alone in my compartment in this ...
La ciudad gris
... hora! Ni nos atreviamos a hablar mucho para no atraerlos. Que buscaban en los asientos? Que es lo que se "trafica" entre Serbia y Rumania? Definitivamente algo huele a chamusquina aqui. Echamos a andar pero al rato el tren para de nuevo. Ahora es el ...
Serbia. Not EEC, but almost there.
... Serbia. I don't know if it was good choice or not, I haven't seen Romania either, but I don't regret it, Belgrade is impresive, really masive and as the whole country not dangerous but pretty friendly. And the weather seems to be changing for better, less ...

magla svuda magla oko nas
Pisanje o tome gde putujes je zanimljivo koliko i samo putovanje jer omogucava da vodis dnevnik a da se to tako ne zove, uz to sumiras sve dogadjaje dok se jos nisu ni zavrsili a mozes i kasnije da ih se prisetis...ono sto je najzanimljivije su mape na ...
Belgrade
... never planned on going to Macedonia and Ohrid was one of my favorite places so far. I never NEVER thought I would visit Serbia but Belgrade seems like a really nice town so far. I just hope that Ljublana lives up to its reputation as well because we ...

I remember what happened here last time...
... around in parks not really doing much but letting my liver recover slightly. I hadnt realised before, what with it being winter and all, but Belgrade is actually quite a green and pleasant city in which to waste a day lying around in the sun. Or sitting ...
Belgrade
The capital of Serbia .. must admit that it was not too impressive but interesting to see these post-communist countries. Spent the afternoon and the entire next day on the river. Floating through the Iron Gate gorge and viewed some of the best scenery on ...

... Best bit: rolling hills Worst: leaving Vukova before the final concert of that German orchestra Distance 84km So far Serbia wins on friendliness and draws equal number one for stupid drivers. As I left the haunting Vukovar I was chilled by the ...
Drinking Game T+9 Hours
... to. In a stupor as if he had been hibernating for six months, he stumbled out into the sitting area butt naked and flashed everyone. The Canadian guy who favored himself to win just stayed in one of the bathrooms all day passed out with ...
Belgrade Pt. 2

Bombed out Belgrade
May 27th - Belgrade We arrived this morning into Belgrade very tired after getting the night train. Our hostel was a bit of a walk but quite easy to find. On the way we were suprised to see that there were still some bombed out buildings from the ...
Serbia - a Dentist's Nightmare

Melting in Belgrade
A few pictures from some time out when out on a work trip in Belgrade. We just had an afternoon to wander and so went up to the cathedral and the old castle and gardens complex. It seriously could have been the hottest place I've ever been in the world ...
Belgrade for a day
... asleep, it's annoying to be asked questions like "where are you going?". "The same direction as the train". Belgrade is definitely a "one day city" and once you've seen the world's largest Orthodox church, the main shopping area and the old fortress, ...
Belgrade
