Spent the first night in a new apartment. The impressions are very good, the apartment came out a little more expensive than we expected, but the quality corresponds to the price. We are faced with the problem here that even for a long period of time, on the eve of the summer season, tenants set a higher price for the summer months of rent. Of course, this applies to good housing in good places - and that's what we wanted. So, a two-level apartment on the first line of Dobrota with a large living room and three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a terrace will cost us 500 euros per month. I think this is quite acceptable for two families.

For a long time I was going to talk about what is sold here and what is not from what our compatriots are used to. Well, about the lack of condensed milk and buckwheat (I haven’t seen it anywhere yet, although they say that you can buy it somewhere) they talk a lot and we were ready for this - my husband can’t stand buckwheat, which can’t be said about me at all 🙂

1. The surprise for us was that here almost no loose tea - even the usual black or green, not to mention any frills that you can buy in Russia almost on every corner. All the tea we saw is bagged, mint is popular, black is some kind of non-aromatic, it seems that the quality is so-so. I’m not saying that you can’t buy good tea here at all - I hope that it’s still possible, we’ll look for it. Obviously, he is not much favored here, since there is no demand.
2. Bread. In Montenegro, you can often meet "bakers" and "mesars" - i.e. small shops that sell only bakery products and only meat. These bakers sell bread of any shape and size (as a rule, they don’t practice small sizes) - but in fact these are varieties of our loaf ... the first two weeks they ate with pleasure, now we are looking for alternatives 🙂 We have never seen pure black at all - maximum gray. We were told by a Russian guy who emigrated to Montenegro a few years ago that he doesn’t like the local bread.. let’s see, maybe he just goes to the wrong stores…

And now about the pleasant - the benefit of it is more here.
1. Olives, olives and oil - are sold everywhere and in very different versions, you cannot buy such olives in Russia, as well as oils - which are made here by ordinary "gardeners" + a lot of imports from Italy. We fry only in olive oil, here it is quite inexpensive.
2. Seafood - it is easy to buy the freshest seafood for every taste and budget. I recently bought live shrimp on the market for 25 euros / kg. In almost every cafe-restaurant you can order grilled fish dishes.
3. Meat - the assortment even in supermarkets is wider than in Russian stores. Prices are lower than in Russia. The meat is very fresh - you can feel the meat aroma. Chicken meat is more tender and also more aromatic; for a kg of legs they gave 3.5 euros (140 rubles)

I will keep writing as I remember.
