When travelling around the world, it is important to understand the significant differences that are inherent in a particular country compared to your own. That is why foreigners often find themselves in awkward situations, which are usually associated with opposing attitudes towards a particular ideological or political situation.

Serbia is a country that has a lot to offer travellers. However, while staying here, it is worth remembering certain topics that should not be raised and things that should be avoided. NewsBytes has told us how to avoid getting into trouble in Serbia.

Do not talk about Kosovo

Remember that Serbia does not recognize Kosovo's independence, and mentioning it in a conversation can end badly. Be open to their point of view or simply ignore the issue.

Do not eat the last portion

To show that you had a good meal and are full, it is better to leave some food on the plate. In addition, before you take an extra portion, ask if anyone else would like it.

Do not be surprised if you are poured with water

In Serbia, there is a tradition of pouring water for good luck when someone leaves the house. It is believed that water can wash away negative energy.

Do not express love openly if you are part of LGBTQ+ community

Although there has been some progress in terms of tolerance of same-sex relationships, Serbia remains a country that is not friendly to such expressions of love. Be aware of this and be careful what you say and do.

Do not drink too much rakija

Rakija is a traditional alcoholic drink made from distilled fruit (plums, grapes, or apricots). This alcohol is quite strong, and therefore can quickly go to your head.
