They talk about why Balkan women are among the most represented in STEM fields and dive into some of the craziest Balkan wedding traditions, including shooting guns, burning clothes, and absolute wedding chaos.And somehow, it always comes back to Tito and Yugoslavia.#Balkancore #BalkanPodcast #Yugoslavia #Tito #BalkanCulture #Diaspora #BalkanWomen #STEM #BalkanWedding

Episode 3 is a chaotic one (in the best way).

We’re Nada and Nejra, two Balkan girls living in the Netherlands, navigating life somewhere between cultures, languages, and identities. In our first episode, we introduce ourselves, unpack the Sarajevo tram incident, share our go-to coffee orders (because coffee is basically a Balkan personality trait), and attempt the impossible: choosing between ajvar and kajmak.Expect chaotic Balkan energy, cultural hot takes, diaspora stories, and the kind of conversations that usually happen three hours deep into a kafe.
