I really love how small local restaurants in Serbia just close down for their vacation period (and honestly, this is pretty common practice across Europe too). And it's not just a rare thing – it's totally normal here.

"So, we're all taking a break, come back in a couple weeks." At least someone's actually managing that work/life balance (hopefully).

The only inconvenience is that nobody updates their hours on Google Maps. So sometimes you show up to find the doors locked and have to frantically search for another place.
