I danas razgovaramo o jednoj veoma lepoj temi, a to je prijateljstvo. Hoćemo da razgovaramo o tome kakve su prijateljstva u Srbiji i kako se one menjaju kroz godine.  That’s right, welcome to another episode of our podcast. And today we’re talking about a very nice topic, which is friendship. We want to talk about what friendships are like in Serbia and how they change through the years.Nevena (00:29) Ovo je veoma interesantna tema o kojoj ljudi veoma često razgovaraju kada idu u inostranstvo, kada treba da se presele i tako dalje. I uvek je veliko pitanje, da li možeš da nađeš prijatelje lokalce? Dakle, da li možeš da nađeš prijatelje koji su iz te zemlje, koji govore taj je jezik i da li možeš da se uklopiš lako ili teško u neku grupu. I generalno jedan, rekla bih, od stereotipa za Srbiju jeste da možemo lako da nađemo prijatelje ili da su Srbi jako otvoreni, druželjubivi, topli, i tako dalje. I rekla bih da je to u velikoj meri tačno, dakle rekla bih da je to poprilično ili većinski tačno. Ali takođe postoji i druga strana priče. A to je, na primer, moje lično iskustvo iz kog mogu da kažem da većina ljudi koju poznajem se i dalje druži sa ljudima koje su upoznali u osnovnoj školi. Ne znam, da li se ti slažeš?  This is a very interesting topic that people often talk about when they go abroad, when they need to move, and so on. And it’s always a big question: can you find local friends? So, can you find friends who are from that country, who speak that language, and can you fit in easily or with difficulty into a group. And generally, one of the stereotypes about Serbia, I would say, is that we can find friends easily or that Serbs are very open, friendly, warm, and so on. And I would say that’s true to a large extent; I’d say it’s quite or mostly true. But there’s also another side to the story. And that is, for example, my personal experience from which I can say that most people I know still hang out with people they met in elementary school. I don’t know, do you agree?Become a member on Patreon (patreon.com/UnlockYourSerbian) to continue reading the transcript!Send us your questions!
