8:42 the sign is incomplete because it does not convey it's intention entirely, full translation would be "We are watching you, do not pick plants" -signed: Bears. Stumbled up on your vlog accidently and I was surprised you lovely people do not have greater audience, you definitely deserve it, top content

[@AshAndDan.]

Ah I see! That makes more sense 😂 thank you so much for your lovely feedback, we appreciate it ❤️

[@taniay.8361]

"You turn engine off and warning light turns off"😂😂😂 Who would expect that ! I love it.

[@AshAndDan.]

Haha yes true.. I meant when we turn off and back on the engine the light goes off for a bit 😅 woops!

[@milantrudi1]

You should visit those places in spring or fall. Breathtakingly beautiful

[@AshAndDan.]

For sure!! We would love to return in the future at one of these times of year ❤️

When it comes to mythology, mysticism, and religions, oaks have been, and still are, the most important trees for the Serbian people. The roots of worshipping oak trees come from the Slavic, pantheistic period , and they have prevailed until today. Old oaks are often sacred trees in villages and hamlets. However, young oaks also have an important role as part of Christmas customs. In every house, a young oak tree is used as a бадњак (badnjak), a ceremonial tree, which the people refer to as a person rather than a tree .The badnjak tree is gathered in the morning or afternoon on the 6th of January (Christmas Eve in the Julian calendar). In villages all over Serbia, it is still a living custom for people to cut down their own trees, while in cities, badnjaks are usually bought in the street markets. Usually, the elders in the family cut the tree. Once the oak is cut down, they would say some short prayers and pour some wine and rakia (fruit brandy) on the stump together with some bread and corn. The chips of wood that come off the tree during cutting with an axe are taken back home as they are an important part of tradition to ensure wellbeing during the following year. It should be noted that all the mentioned customs may vary substantially between regions or even villages, and this account is just from my personal experience.

[@AshAndDan.]

We did! An interesting place. We also visited the Crveni Krst concentration camp which was a very sad to learn about what Serbs went through during the war! Nis is a great city with great people 👍

The roots of worshipping oak trees come from the Slavic, pantheistic period (Sofrić Niševljanin {1912} 1990), and they have prevailed until today. Old oaks are often sacred trees in villages and hamlets. However, young oaks also have an important role as part of Christmas customs. In every house, a young oak tree is used as a бадњак (badnjak), a ceremonial tree, which the people refer to as a person rather than a tree (Čajkanović 1973). The badnjak tree is gathered in the morning or afternoon on the 6th of January (Christmas Eve in the Julian calendar), depending on the region (Popović 1989; Trajković 2005) or even on the 2nd of January in Luštica (Bay of Kotor, according to Vučinić-Nešković 2008). In villages all over Serbia, it is still a living custom for people to cut down their own trees, while in cities, badnjaks are usually bought in the street markets. Usually, the elders in the family cut the tree. Once the oak is cut down, they would say some short prayers and pour some wine and rakia (fruit brandy) on the stump together with some bread and corn.
