The wonderful people of Serbia

Almost every Serbian you talk to or any article you read about Serbia will mention its beautiful and wonderfully kind people.  When we asked Nemanja Brkovic what his favorite thing about living in the country was he mentioned the people with their sense of humor, hospitality and opinion for anything you can think of. “You can ask an average Serbian citizen about anything and he will give you his opinion about it.”

His opinion on where people should go in Serbia is, among other places, Belgrade. Which he describes as great city, night or day, and not very expensive for travelers. Dragana Marković agreed with his assessment and sent us this great video of the city. If you didn’t want to travel to Serbia before, you’re bound to want to after watching.

Fun facts about Serbia from Dragana Djermanovic:
-It’s home to an incredible number of sport champions with medals in basketball, handball, waterpolo, and tennis.
-Serbian scientist, Nikola Tesla, invented the tesla coil, remote control, neon lamp and induction motor.

Now without further ado, meet a few of the amazing Serbs on about.me
