Tako je, dobrodošli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta i pre nego što počnemo sa današnjom temom, mi vam želimo srećnu Novu godinu, puno sreće, zdravlja, uspeha i svega što vi poželite. A danas razgovaramo o životu u Beogradu.
That’s right, welcome to another episode of our podcast, and before we start with today’s topic, we wish you a happy New Year, lots of happiness, health, success, and everything you wish for. And today we’re talking about life in Belgrade.

Da, pre svega srećna nova godina i srećni praznici. Mislim da je ovde veoma jasno koji je najvažniji praznik u Srbiji. Zato što je sada bio i Božić koji se slavi 25. Decembra, i posle toga Nova godina i za nas treba još da bude i Božić 7. januara, ali ono što je meni bilo jako smešno jeste da sam dobila mnogo mnogo mnogo više poruka i ja sam poslala mnogo mnogo više poruka kada se promenio dan, dakle kada je došao prvi januar nego što sam slala 25. i verovatno više nego što ću slati 7. januara, tako da ovo je definitivno najvažniji praznik za nas u Srbiji i zato želimo svima vama da poželimo najlepšu srećnu novog godinu 2026.
Yes, first of all, happy New Year and happy holidays. I think it’s very clear here which the most important holiday in Serbia. Since there was also Christmas which is celebrated on December 25th. And after that New Year, and for us there still also needs to be Christmas on the 7th of January, but what was really funny to me is that I received many, many, many more messages and I sent many, many more messages when the day changed, that is, when the first of January came, than I sent on the 25th, and probably more than I will send on the 7th of January, so this is definitely the most important holiday for us in Serbia and that’s why we want to wish all of you the very happiest New Year 2026.
