Do you like mountains? I do! I just came back from Montenegro. Perfect place for people who like mountains. Even in the name of this country you can see the word ‘mountain’, it is translating like ‘black mountain’, so it already says that there you can find a lot of mountains. It was my first time in Montenegro and I can say that I made right decision when I choose this country. I stayed in the capital – Podgorica, and I visited towns, villages around.
It is perfect place for summer holiday because of the warm weather, but at the wintertime weather is not the best one, except you like cold weather. You can find perfect places for skiing in the top of mountains, even on warm weather you can find snow there. I had opportunity to watch skiing competition. Helicopter was bringing participants to the very top of mountain and from there they was going down, showing best what they can. Great show. Also nonprofessionals could enjoy time, and ski for their pleasure.
But if you are like me, and enjoying more sun, sand, swimming, go to see side, it is not that far from capital, most popular place Budva, just because it is so popular it is a bit expensive, like everywhere.
If you deciding not to rent a car, you can use public transport, bus or train, for both prices are almost the same and it is not expensive. From one to other town, distance around one hour ticket cost around 3 euro, and fell free to use student discount if you are still student, by the way no matter that Montenegro isn’t in ES, money they using is Euro. Last thing about buses, that you are paying not when you are entering to the bus, but when going out.
Unlucky non smokers. No mater that by law it is already forbidden to smoke in public places, people still living in old way – smoke where you want. You can see sticker on all doors in every cofe, pub or other public place, but also in side you easy can find an ashtray. And nobady will say nothing if you will smoke while having dinner. Once I went to pub, and I can sincerely to say that it wasn’t even a little sip of air it was hard to breath because of smokes. Big plus for smokers – you can find really cheep cigarettes there prices starts from 1,40 euro. I think it is one of reason why there are a lot of smokers.
Paradise for sugar lovers, there are a lot of sweets, and they are so perfect! Cookies, cakes, pies, still can feel taste of it on my tongue. Also not very common drink – black wine, it taste sweet and really nice.
People there are really friendly just hard to find English speakers, maybe I just was unlucky this time ☺
