1) Is Montenegro a good place to live abroad as a foreign resident or expat from the US or Canada?
2) Is Montenegro a good part of our Schengen Shuffle Strategy?

A little beach town that I enjoyed was Petrovac. I spent several months there and went back there two or three times. Petrovac is.a place to kick back and relax. You won't be swamped with American tourists. The tourists were fairly evenly divided from all parts of the world. This is not a partying beach town. It's a lovely little coastal village where you can enjoy the food and scenery and perhaps use as a base to travel to other parts of the country.

@user-jb2ks2cc4z Месяц назад

I’ve walked those Kotor streets, the top of castle 2x, the winding trail 1x. My friend took me to tivat to catch plane to leave from Herzegovina Novi in his 43 foot sailboat. One great way to leave such a breathtaking country.😊

I have tons of friends moved there for quite awhile and generally they are happy with the move. Although there are some hidden issues typical for ex Soviet block countries that most western expats are not familiar with before they face it. It can become serious at times.

After Podgorica that was cheaper as you've said, I stayed in Sutomore near Bar for 15 Euro per night. It cost me 1.50 Euro to visit Bar where I had to pay tourist tax. Bus to Budva cost 4.50 Euro each direction. After one month in Montenegro they told me that I didn't have to pay any more tax or keep registering. I agree about supermarkets not having varieties. Yet, the locals are so proud of their supermarkets. I've also noticed that there are many Russians and Serbians who live here. Serbian, Croatian and Montenegrin language is same, only different dialect.

I've spent couple weeks a year for past 3 yrs in Azores, algarve and finally Costa del Sol in Malaga but toke several day trips around. I was always amazed at places like Ronda and Sentinel etc " how and why". The places seemed crazy to actual live in hundred of years ago. Tribal warfare constant invasions etc ... But it's "slave labor" ... You asked how did they build all this walls in Montenegro she's the castles etc. Europe was built with slave labor. I found several plaques in Ronda Spain that called the workers "Captives"... Yeah, another European word for SLAVES. All those amazing structures and architecture???? Yeah, slave labor. Thousands of years of it. But I still love the place. And the architecture is truly amazing.
