SERBIA, THE LAST COUNTRY ON MY BALKAN TRIP IN THE WINTER OF 2024. THOUGH I WAS INITIALLY PUT OFF BY THE OVERALL VIBE OF THE COUNTRY,
OVER THE SIX DAYS I WAS THERE, IT REALLY GREW ON ME. I HAD BEEN TRAVELLING FOR TWO WEEKS AT THIS POINT AND WAS INTO FULL TRAVEL MODE,
AND WAS NOT GOING TO LET A FEW BAD INCIDENTS GET THE BETTER OF ME. THE EASTERN EUROPEAN NATION REMINDED ME A LITTLE OF MY TIME IN BOTH POLAND AND UKRAINE,
AND DESPITE THE STENCH OF CIGARETTE SMOKE EVERYWHERE, I FOUND IT REFRESHING.
