Hi! I’m Blair, an American expat, businesswoman, content creator, and founder of ABC Experiences & Events DOO and Blair in Belgrade.

Yes! I recently expanded Blair in Belgrade from TikTok to YouTube, sharing more in-depth stories and experiences about expat life in Belgrade.
3. What do you like about Belgrade?
I like the people, the walkability, the lifestyle, how safe it is, and that I can enjoy a high quality of life here.
4. Where do you like to go out?
I’ve been staying in lately—haha! I just moved into a new place and have been focused on making it feel like home. But when I first arrived, I loved dancing and dining at spots like Lafayette, Dorceleta, and The Pavilion.
5. Name 3 of your favorite restaurants in the city:
Smokvica on Kralja Petra, The Square, and a cozy little place where I always get my favorite posna pizza.
6. Where do you drink coffee?
I don’t drink coffee—I’m a tea girl! I love having afternoon tea at The St. Regis Hotel.
7. Where do you spend your leisure time?
Walking every morning in Hyde Park, other times I spend time with my friends and my religious community.
