What could you do in Belgrade while being alone? Really? What am I doing these days, these few days of sunny weather, after a month of raining?
Not much... Sitting on the balcony and watching the River, one of two big rivers that meet right here. Or yesterday, I went in park - the oldest and biggest one in Belgrade, the core of the city called Kalemegdan. I was sitting there for hours, like some lizard at the sun.
What else could some do?
Belgrade people like a lot sitting in cafes, maybe just drinking some coffee but sitting and watching other passengers. But Belgrade people do not sit alone often. We always have some reason to go somewhere with friends or family. To talk, to chat, to smile, to enjoy. To have fun everywhere.
Shiny happy people...

Šta sve može da se radu u Beogradu kad je neko sam? Zaista, šta radim ovih dana, ovih nekoliko dana lepog vremena, posle mesec dana kiše?
Ništa posebno...Sedim na terasi i posmatram reku, jednu od dve velike reke koje se ovde susreću. Ili juče, otišla sam do parka - najstarijeg i najvećeg u Beogradu, u srcu grada, poznatog i kao Kalemegdan. Sedela sam tamo satima, kao neki gušter upijajući sunce.
Šta još može da se radi?
Ljudi u Beogradu vole da sede u kafićima, možda samo pijući kafu, ali sede i posmatraju druge prolaznike. Ali beogradski ljudi ne sede često sami. Uvek imamo razlog da negde odemo sa prijateljima ili porodicom. Da razgovaramo, da se smejemo, da uživamo. I da nam svuda bude zabavno. Shiny happy people...

Grace,
I was in Belgrade alone on business a few years ago, and I had a great time. I stayed at the Hotel Moscow, and there were many restaurants, retail stores and cafes nearby. I had a wonderful time and I look forward to going back. Thank you for the site.
