The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup

The next stop on my recent European trip was the little-discussed but incredibly interesting country of Kosovo. I had the pleasure of spending a few days with a super cool guide named Ilir in the capital of Pristina, who taught me about this small Balkan country. In today’s conversation with Ilir, you’ll learn what you need to know about Kosovo and what makes it a welcoming place for expats and tourists alike, including its history, culture, lifestyle, and more. Enjoy!

TODAY’S CONVERSATION ABOUT KOSOVO:

• Uncover Kosovo's fascinating history and culture, which goes much further back than its more recent, war-torn past.
• Learn about the recent change for Kosovons that will make travel in the region a lot easier.
