Serbia Was Solid

Greetings,

I’m writing this from the Radisson Blu in Belgrade and I mention that because it has the fastest internet connection I’ve ever been on I believe. I’m at ~60mpbs down and 65mpbs up; insane?! I’ve been here over a week now and explored all over the country; I really like Serbia and the rest of the the Balkans and eastern Europe for that matter.

One thing I will mention is that the nightlife in Belgrade really is something. The other night myself and some associates, colleagues, friends or whatever you want to call people these days went out to one of those busy clubs on the river. Let’s say we left at 4am and it was still raging. That said, I’m very glad that I went nuts at 29 because I’m getting too old for that stuff these days. I’m far from 47.5 but further from 18.

Below are some posts I wrote from my recent time here and in a few hours I’m off to London for the evening before catching an early flight to Edinburgh, Scotland. I’m excited to be returning to Scotland where I’ll be playing some golf, going on a bike ride to the base of Loch Ness, walking around St. Andrews so I can see the “Old Course” and all that jazz.

Day in Novi Pazar

I’ll also be checking out a castle called Eilean Donan which looks stunning; hopefully I’ll have some great weather that day as I think it’s going to deliver some incredible photos and video. I’m vlogging the whole thing too and traded my trusty GoPro in for a Canon G7X which isn’t that durable but wow, the video quality is next level.

I’d go on but I’m editing videos like mad and about to order room service. In closing, I went to the Trumpet Festival in Guca and straight up, the music kinda grew on me. I was there for the opening night and the weather wasn’t ideal so it wasn’t that packed. Supposedly when it’s full-swing like right now, it has up to 900,000 people in a small town that is usually home to 10,000; madness!

I’m SURE lots of locals HATE trumpets; it’s so loud, obnoxious and awesome.

Also, I’m fat from all the BBQ or getting there but enough of that.

Tips hat,

P.S: Internet speed is everything these days. Little Corn speeds suck so I never do anything because I can’t stand waiting for pages to load or getting the fail to load signal etc. On this connection I feel like I can take over the world because I can; Belgrade is still a hot spot for me to return when I want to lock myself in a nice apartment and inflame my finger joints.
