From the splendor of Kotor Bay, Montenegro we crossed the border to the south of Bosnia. A very different world but in many ways connected to Montenegro and Croatia. Trebinje lies in the TrebiΕ‘njica river valley, at the foot of Leotar, in southeastern Herzegovina, barely 30 km by road from Dubrovnik, Croatia, on the Adriatic coast. It is one of the most beautiful cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and is called “the city of sun and platan trees”. Herzegovina is well known for its wine, and Trebinje is the perfect place to sample the local varieties for a fraction of what you would pay elsewhere. Family-run wineries dot the outskirts of Trebinje, and a degustations are available starting from 5 euro per person (including food). Zilavka is the local white wine, and Vranac is the local variety of red wine.

Go through Slovenia while you're going through Hungary. The scenery is Alpine and breathtaking. The cities are better than Czech Republic, especially Ljubljana. You have to see lake Bled. All these places are not on the coast but at a higher elevation so not that hot in summer. Hungary is mostly flat. So it's a nice change π
Finally Bosnia video. Not because of Bosnia although Bosnia is so beautiful but because of anticipation where will you end up in Bosnia since you said you dont have time to stay too long in there.
Just one tip for easier pronunciation of words in those countries: whenever you see letter J in any names or writings replace it in your head with English letter Y or I and you will suddenly sound like a local. This rule can be applied to Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Croatia. Maybe even Slovenia but cannot confirm for sure. It is not important thing, it doesn't take away anything from your videos but it will protect your tongue from fracture.
Also, there is only one way to watch your videos: first klick on like button and THEN watch the video from the beginning to the end. Strictly in this order.
Love your energy guys. Thanks for sharing your awesome adventure β€οΈπ¦
Love these kind of bridges it reminded me of the Ponte della Maddalena in Tuscany. We also love these little towns that are not so overcrowded. A view on a river, fjord or sea is always a bonus π have a great time π
Love your vlogs guys β€ I just wanted to let you know you should check if the tint you applied to windows is legal. I know that putting it on back windows should be fine, but passenger/driver windows are problematic. The police in Serbia used to give out fines if the tint was not factory installed or had some stupid paperwork. Also everything I said could not apply for foreigners and im just talking jibberish. π
Always love the drone clips in your videos. Do you both fly the drone? Do you ever use stock drone video as wondered whether flying restrictions impact the footage you want?
Good one ..π I was in Medjugorje and Mostar area a few weeks ago .. Very good Value ..it was Hot π₯ ..Fertile valleys n Rocky mountains ..lots of old Mercedes vans in very good condition..
Stay Free and Safe Travels π π
Your videos always make me feel like I'm part of a community, thank you.
Trebinje β€β€β€ the best city in Hercegovina
π
Love, love, loooove traveling with you!
This video brought back memories of a bus trip to Medugorje 6 years ago. Wait patiently for every video if yours. We're going to be in Europe later this year doing a part of the Camino and then travelling a bit (not in a motorhome). So watching your videos give me ideas for future trips
Trebinje, pronounced the similar to Oranje in Afrikaans π
I hope, you won't mind me saying that the Balkan is the most beautiful part of Europe.
Oh, I'm traveling with you πππ
Great video as always .
This video came up on my youtube feed earlier but I was saving it to watch it later, as a kind of treat, like an ice-cream or pastry !
– great intro and wonderful drone footage
– I love the fact that Andre found himself lost in the tool section of that store, typical man
– Drone footage of that town is amazing.
– amazing bridge, wonderful views
– smoking, yuk
– Bosnia seems so cheap
– amazing scenery on your road trip.
– I'm very impressed with how you are both constantly upgrading your lovely home. Those solar strips turned out really well, hope they work. Still waiting to see the finished bathroom πwith the Uber cool stainless steel basin.
Now I know why I saved it as a treat, guys that was delightful, thanks.
Safe travelling.
We just found your channel! π₯³ we have 2 questions: where do you dump and refill your van? Also, do you abide by the 90day passport or do you have an EU residency?
Oh and one more: do you ever worry about your bike getting stollen?
Incredible editing btw! ππ»
