Serbia in July – Novi Sad, Niš & Zlatibor

Hi! I’m Talia from Bathsheba, 27, and I’ve planned a week and a half in Serbia for July 2028. Rough route: Novi Sad, Niš, Zlatibor, Belgrade. The core focus is on a road trip – so lots of nightlife, a bit of culinary exploration, and if time permits, mountains too. I prefer small and personal accommodation, more hostels than big hotels. It's important to me not to tick everything off a list: I'd rather linger in a place if it feels right, check out local markets, strike up conversations with people. I'm laid-back, up early, and happy to sit at a table with a glass of wine or tea in the evening. I have no issues with English. I'm looking for a travel buddy – we don't have to be together 24/7. Sharing meals, spending a day together, or doing a hike together is perfectly enough. If this sounds like you, feel free to get in touch.
