After a long day’s drive from Blagaj (Bosnia), we arrived at the Bijambare Protected Natural Area where we checked with the staff at the ticket booth that it was alright for us to overnight and they said that it was no problem. Just as we were about to go to sleep (around 11 pm) something happened that we’ve never experienced in before in our 2 years of full-time motorhome travel around Europe. The next day we foiund ourselves back in Serbia. Where we made new friends and visited Novi Sad – while enduring the sweltering heatwave which was experience all over Europe.
Motorhome life is tough in this kind of heat!

Whow, that was scary. So, be carefull. Have a nice trip. Hopefully I see you sometime.
Awww looks like you have have a great time! Very hot in Europe right now. Have the best week
Back in the EU, Ya 🙂 Well done guys.
Love the sunflowers. We lost our keys in France in a sunflower paddock. Take care in the heat
Such a good film thank you. That was sooooo creepy having a guy hanging around Millie! Just shows to never be complacent no matter how much research you do there could still be 'that guy'! Reality check for us as we learn! We are definitely inspire to say yes and hope to be like you guys and explore without expectation. We actually burst out laughing when Andre said 'everyone else is already dead'! Hopefully you've found cooler weather now!? We enjoyed this film eating our supper sat looking out across a huge river at a festival of adventure which feels quite apt!
Have you now added 'check pants' to your pre-flight list…….
Hey André & Lisa, yes the heat messes up everybody’s plans. We saw the sunflowers and Lavender in France it was very beautiful, just like you Lisa I love the sunflowers 🌻🌻🌻. Are you teasing me with the Cockta 🙃A shame that someone found it neccessary to bother you, while you wanted to sleep 😏. I think this was a video wich everyone can relate to when you’re out with you’re campervan you have similar experiences good and bad. Enjoy you’re trip it’s always a pleasure to see you both, stay safe and happy traveling, as we say in the Netherlands, groetjes 👋
👍
Novi Sad is quite a gem. Lots of cafés, bars and restaurants. Good quality restaurants. At Dunavska street and Jovan Jovanović Zmaja there are a lot of alleyways with shops, bars and galleries. Artisan ice cream is produced and sold by Crna Ovca (black sheep), and Moritz Eis. They are a bit more expensive but really excellent. At the river you have a nice sandy beach called Štrand, which is very popular when the weather is hot.
The mountain range just south of the city, Fruška Gora, is partly a national park, and has around a dozen monasteries and a lot of wine producers well worth a visit.
As mentioned in a previous comment by me the area, including NS, has numerous minorities living there which is visible on official plaques which are usually written in Serbian, Hungarian, Slovak and Ruthenian.
Cool video guys, it's always interesting to see my country from foreigners' perspective. And it's the first time that I am in someone's travel vlog 🥹🤟😄
Have a nice and safe trip guys, hope to see you again 🍀
What a nice bunch of locals that you met! Pretty dress, Lisa!
22:40 wrong comment "sugar rush". You were drinking Cockta Free (remember?) no sugar in it. Sugar is only in Cockta Original (blue label). So you could have another one without any guilt.
Thank you again for the great video. Sometimes I keep forgetting there are only two of you, not only for the 3D camera and the stick but leaving the camera on the wall and then walking towards it, or doing the selfie with Lisa and then you walk ahead and stop filming Lisa coming towards you (in the tunnel passage)… it is all edited so nicely you really give impression you were followed by a camera crew. Very nice.
That creep sneaking around your motor house in the middle of the night it was like a horror movie. Blare Witch Project 4? You were brave if you walked out only with the torch. Maybe you should mount some cheap LED spot lights around Millie in 4 directions and some switch next to your bed for an instant: "hello, what are you doing here?" warning without going out in the dark. Not for the next trip as you will less likely come across the situation like that, but if you are coming back again?
When you get to Budapest and try to have some local food, do not forget to have some paprikash or fish sup. They have some great food and it is spicier just a bit more than in other Balkan countries. When I say spicier, it is not just more paprika and chilies but generally more flavours.
Have a great trip and more pleasant surprizes like that swim in the river.
Nice one apart from the guy Prowling 😮 Hot 🔥 🥵
Stay Free and Safe Travels 😀
It is such a shame the heat wave prevented you from staying longer in Serbia, but, yes it was scorchingly hot. I've just watched another two guys in Serbia and they were enjoying it to the full: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXlDa7e-7bU
Oh guys I cant believe I missed you! I was in my hometown Loznica(near those places where you swim) during those super hot days as well. Been watching you for several months now and I've been really enjoying your content, and I hope you enjoyed our beautiful country.
Bravoooo❤❤❤❤❤
How do you guys deal with immigration/visas? I know the EU only allows 90 day visas that can be renewed once or 6 months per year. Do you just go to a non-Schengen country and then go back to renew and get another 90 days? But then you still have to leave for 6 months and have a place to put the RV. Seems tricky
Многу чудно на почетокот со тој перверзниот! Но како напредуваше видеото, се поинтересно и поинтересно. Иако сум од Балканот, немам многу можности да патувам по околните градови и места на Балканот, и така и јас патувам со вашите видеа. И баш ми е драго што снимате во Нови Сад, и како вие го согледувате градот од ВАШИ очи, и колку интересни места и моменти. А исто браво на трудот што го вложувате сето тоа да го снимите. Има во коментарите и многу добра заедница, прочитав и некои локалци како ви предложуваат плажа, други места за вкусување сладолед, места за прошетки како Фрушка Гора и манастирите… Браво за тој што го предложи сето ова, и искрено би сакала и јас со мојот сопруг да го посетиме Нови Сад 🥰 Фала ви на прекрасната репортажа.
Се надевам Гугл ќе го преведе мојот коментар како што треба😊. Браво за ова и браво за сите видеа. Поздрав од Македонија ☺️❤
As always, that was a delightful 25 minutes well spent. And… sorry, I made notes…
– creepy visitor. Creepy or what, stay safe.
– lakes, scenery amazing. you lucky lucky things….
– cool river swim, fast flowing. I used to do Triathlon's and dreaded the open water swims, that river looked scarily fast flowing. Glad you got out before your reached Moscow….
– Yes goes both ways. I think that they were equally glad to have met you guys. You are both good company and interesting young (did you like what I did there!) people. Being open (and saying yes) is key to having these kind of enriching interactions.
– temps are crazy. Irelands cool climate is seeming more and more attractive.
– those poor truck drivers in the queue must be baking. Crikey, imagine sitting in a cab for that long in those kind of temps.
Myself and two of my brothers went on a road trip this weekend, we traversed (in a car) around Galway in Ireland. We visited places that I've never been to before and I couldn't stop noticing campervans and thinking of how you guys would have loved where we were. My brothers were getting annoyed with me for constantly checking out the different campervans and motorhomes every time that we stopped. You guys need to visit Ireland at some point, I'm sure you would love it. Anyway…..
Thanks for sharing your journey with us, stay safe and keep smiling.
