Hungarians and Macedonians are very picky when it comes to borders. Macedonians guard it like it had mountains of gold. One time they even brought a dog to sniff for drugs, due to an anonymous tip. Same for Hungarians, though after you cross the border, moving across the EU gets a bit easier. We're not in the EU, so we don't get the joy of moving freely around Europe. Germans tend to go over your bags, in case you want to bring some stuff to Germany (IDK if they still do this, but in the past, their protocol was that you couldn't bring food from other countries, because they wanted you to spend as much as possible over there, however, they do accept 50 euro bribes, no surprise there, practically all border guards do this).

We don't really get to do these things so often, our economy is bellow average because of political corruption, the Serbian dinar is practically worthless compared to Russian ruble. We have poor incomes despite the amount of work we put in, my mother works as a consulter in a bank and her paycheck is less than 300 euros, we're basically like a third world nation that washed up on Balkans. Even going to our neighboring countries gets hard. For us, to see a seashore is like heaven, because we have a hard time simply being there for ten days.
