Apparently a car gets stolen every 5 minutes in Belgrade and my insurance covers my car for every country in Europe except Serbia and Bosnia. Crazy!
Very interesting place. There is still lots of scars on buildings from the 'bombings in 99'
Great people, food and wine, very welcoming people.
Croatia is very very beautiful, especially the coast, but for driving Slovenia is awesome! Mountains, unpoliced highways (180-200k's) cruising speed on freeways, beatiful coast. You can cover the whole country on 1 tank of gas.
Nasvidenje, Caio.

thats awesome man, and yes cars get stolen there like nothing else.
i have a funny story about that, my dads friend bought a nice S class, and few days later he had a flat tire, so he didnt know how to take out the spare from the back and he got pissed and started beating on it and all over the trunk, leaving very bid dents all over the inside of the trunk. few days later his car gets stolen...sux. then, he says screw this i want another S class, so he calls around and one guy is like we have the exact model you are looking for, couse he said i want black on black and bla bla, so hes like fine ill take it. he buys it, and after paying and whateve his wife took it to the store, and when they were getting stuff out of the trunk he notices some dents, pulls the carpet..and its hic rcar LOL.
so yeah...stealing is like nothing.
but the city is still suffering, the whole country in general.
and as for croatia, well they didnt really get any dmage from the war, so its still a beautiful place.
glad you had fun man, do you have any pics you can PM me from the trip?
