Mihajlo Milčić - Belgrade, SerbiaI first met Mihajlo at the Green Lounge Hostel is Belgrade, Serbia. One of my favorite moments with Mihajlo was talking about his desire to travel the world and to see a concert in Australia in the next year or two. We had a great conversation about his love for playing the drums. Overall, Mihajlo is a fun guy to be around. His motivation to see and do things outside of his comfort zone is what makes him a cool dude. I enjoyed our conversations over Serbian beer and live Metallic sets on YouTube. I look forward to seeing what he does in the next few years as he tries to establish himself in the Belgrade community. ~ Dan Hellinger

What improvements do you want to see Serbia make in the next 5 years? |
"For starters I would like my country to improve the living standards, to make better salaries, and allow locals to obtain a normal way of living. Next thing would be to try and improve our schooling system. I would like to see the schools be free of charge for local citizens who are in need. I would like to see locals treat each other with more respect. We are all the same."

What aspirations do you want to achieve in life? |
"Well, we talked about this particular subject when we were in the hostel. I would like to achieve a good job, and a proper career and a normal family. I would like to play drums, and try out new things that are not in my current budget, like bungee jumping and paragliding. I am attracted to adrenaline sports. I would also like to meet as many people as possible and increase my friend circle. But, the ultimate goal in my life at the moment is to travel the world. You have given me the means to see the world through our conversations. I am now addicted to hearing the stories you have shared on your website."

Is money important or the power of knowledge? |
"Well in this world, we live on two different sides that are colliding from time to time. Money is really important for stability, and to achieve something, but the fact is that the way we make money is more important, and that is where power of knowledge comes in hand. So, in my case I like to have background knowledge on everything including my career so that I know and feel calm with the salary I earn every month. Knowledge should be more crucial than money, because if people have skills and knowledge, they can always earn the money needed to support themselves."

Mihajlo Travel Story |
"Let's see, well i didn't really have much oportunity to travel around, and visit many places, up until now i have traveled abroad to Budimpesta, Vienna, Prague, Bratislava, and Paris. My most interesting story would be visiting Paris, with all it's great stuff, like visiting Eiffel Tower, or Notr Dam church, also Louvre is the most amazing museum i have ever been to, but like most of people i like fun more, so the crucial part of this story is visiting Disneyland, and taking a few rides, and also sailing on Sena. Disneyland is like a dreamland for teenagers, you can do many fun stuff like go on amazing rides like RollerCoaster, or visit some scary rides like Twilight zone falling elevators, but the biggest discovery for me was, a simple train tour, into making movie or animated movie effects, like making fire, or rain, or explosions, the one that was talking on screen was Jeremy Irons the famous actor, and he explained so many things, even though it felt like a real fire it was just a trick, but awesome trick, also earthquakes were made by a platform that was beneath us so i discovered so my great things. Of course i cannot forget sailing Sena, we saw from river, so many beautiful things, like the famouse Eiffel Tower that we even went to see right after that sailing, the government, and many other things, i also forgot, i was having dinner on top of the biggest building in Paris, called Mont Parnas, it was so exciting cause after 6 pm on every hour, Eiffel Tower lights up some lights similar to New Years lights that we put on our Christmas trees. Also i visited Mont Marhtr (i don't know if i spelled correctly). It's the church on top of hill, and near it there is a square where street painters paint some amazing photos, it's like so awesome. Also Moulin Rouge and it's famous windmill are also nice thing to see. That travel was the greatest in my life. A bit of tip for everyone who visits or plan on visiting Prague, check Czech beer, one of the famous beers in the world." ~ Mihajlo Milčić
