Walking tour Belgrade, Capital of (3) Yugoslavia(s)
In Serbia we have tradition of giving nicknames. One of my favorite is Nebo. That means sky. And sky is the limit! Or there are no borders? ;)
Pickup
We will meet next to the monument of Petar Petrovic Njegos, and I will have my Tito toty bag (or my favorite orange jacket)
Description
It's been more than 20 years (or is it 30?) that Yugoslavia doesn't exist as a country, yet it is still drawing attention from both locals and foreigners.
Was it a error or a major achievement of 'small nations' and their attempt to do something big, or at least bigger than what they are now? How many of heir are there now?
Six, seven, or it will be even more... How many Yugoslavia-s we had? What is Yugospehere? Titoslavia? Is yugonostalgia disease, state of mind, or good starting point of thinking about better future (so called yugofuturism)? Is yugo best small car that they like to smash in Hollywood movies or annoying wind that Dalmatians go mad because of it?
Join me on a tour where we will try to provide answers to some of these questions and where we willing collect more questions about this non-existent country, yet stubbornly present idea!
