B A L K A N S (part 5 – Montenegro)

Montenegro is another of these places i’ve always wanted to visit, without being entirely sure of the reasons why. One of Europe’s newest countries, it narrowly voted by referendum in 2006 to become independent of Serbia and go it alone. We’d already driven through Montenegro on our way from Albania to Dubrovnik, but this time we would be driving to the capital city, Podgorica (pronounced pod-gore-itza) and using it as a base to explore the rest of the country.
