About Serbia Travel Podcast with Milica Jovanović

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.
