I don’t see too much of this in the USA compared to what I have seen in Serbia and the rest of the Balkan countries. What do you think? Freedom? #travel #balkan #culture #freedom by @brettandbear

Monument to the Woman-Fighter (Споменик на жената-борец), located in Woman Warrior Park (Парк „Жена борец“) in central Skopje, Macedonia

Unveiled on March 8, 1970 (International Women's Day) it is dedicated to the women who fought and contributed during the People's Liberation Struggle (WWII) in Macedonia.

If you didn’t know… now you do.

Nice. by @brettandbear

Just a typical Saturday. Here in the Balkans. A little work and a little free to just chill. Make a coffee last an hour and take in life. 😊 #balkan #weekend #macedonia by @brettandbear

What would you do? This was a speech before a concert here in the Balkans. Crowd seemed to agree. I will say I like the freedom for speech here. Agree or not it’s a good thing 😃 #usa #balkan #madedonia by @brettandbear

Skopje Jazz Festival goes back to 1982 under the guidance of founder Oliver Belopeta. Thanks also very much Nada Belopeta and Skopje Jazz Festival for the hospitality! It runs through this weekend with a lot of international jazz stars. I love music and discovering how much my home country influenced the Balkans love of music like jazz 🎶 #jazz #balkan #madedonia #skopje by @brettandbear

I’ll return to Serbia sometime in December, maybe sooner. Still have great memories there and more to come. There is really so much to see and explore in a relatively untraveled country. #balkan #serbia #travel by @brettandbear

The 1963 earthquake in Skopje Macedonia was devastating. The world came together to rebuild the city. The same architect that designed Tokyo, Kenzo Tange, came up with the plan. It was also the first major project the UN did like this. The USA and Russia even worked alongside each other at the height of the Cold War. #balkan #usa #travel #macedonia taken in Skopje, Macedonia by @brettandbear

Yeah. I need help on editing filming and all that stuff. Tried to have someone film me but ended up with 30 minutes of partying and such. I’m so lost. I can not think of ways to make videos. However this was a great encounter with someone. Hmm. Nice. #balkan #solotravel #macedonia #skopjemacedonia by @brettandbear

Never thought I would see so many cheering on a public execution of someone in the USA. It’s weird. It’s backwards. It’s putting America in a morally corrupt universe. Just my thoughts. #usa #balkan #politics by @brettandbear

It’s not all fun and games when you travel solo. There is also work involved. #solotravel #balkan #macedonia by @brettandbear
