Serbia Overview

This is the story of Serbia at the Balkans crossroads, warm country in the rose of cold winds, the country of wine and bread, the country which smells of a maiden's breasts and warm round bread as well, of good old home made brandy which is served for weddings by open - hearted and honest hosts. In her house by the road, she wrapped her hospitality in a fair heart, she blesses and welcomes invited and uninvited guests with a toast, because everybody is welcomed in Serbia!
