From the publisher's feed
This podcast follows the slow, grounded work of travelling through Serbia as a resident would: settling, learning, then moving on. Serbia's character comes from its variety — the flat and fertile Vojvodina plain in the north, the limestone ranges of the east, and the ancient mountains of the southeast all sit within one landlocked country.
The show takes in Belgrade and Novi Sad as well as the wine-growing hills of Fruška Gora and the remote Stara Planina. She moves across Serbia between city streets, monastery complexes, and mountain pastures, following the change from continental climate in the north to hot, dry summers in the south-east.
The series unfolds across Serbia's seasons, from cold, snowy winters to hot, dry summers. Episodes return to the same places as the weather changes: a Belgrade park under snow, a Fruška Gora vineyard in autumn, a mountain ridge in the heat of summer. That repeated attention is how Serbian places are known properly — slowly, through accumulated detail, rather than a checklist.
Milica Jovanović lives in Serbia and stays for two years, moving between cities, coastlines and smaller towns on a route that follows the seasons. Not a week-long visit — Milica is there in every kind of weather, working out where to eat on an ordinary Tuesday, which train to take, what a festival actually feels like from the pavement.
A new episode arrives every day. Each one is short and specific: one neighbourhood, one journey, one meal, one museum worth the detour — with the practical detail that matters. What it costs. When it closes. Whether the queue is worth it. What to do when it rains. Every episode carries a full transcript and chapter markers.
