After our great trip to Sarajevo, we decided to head for the dark evil empire of Serbia. Belgrade. We stayed in hotel Moskva, which even has a wikipedia page. At the time it was still very sovjet. Weather was good, we mainly had beer in the park. City was pretty ugly.
Nightlife in Belgrade
We were not popular in the nightlife. It may have something to do with the fact we bombed them. People avoided at all cost getting into a conversation with us. Weightlifting seems to be the national sport in Serbia. New AFC Ajax player Miralem Sulejmani was not a good topic starter. Serbian nationality, but muslim.
One of us directed a taxi driver (by accident) to a brothel (disco or club?). Owner tried to charge us 50 euro for 3 beers. Ever since, in discussions with family about tipping policy – we like to tell about this experience (“once, we were in a brothel in Belgrade..”)
