Is there an up-to-date thread about Applying for Residency/Registering a business? I note this thread has been inactive for some time, and Montenegro's EU Accession has moved forward since that time. Basically I can arrive in MN visa free as an ... Read More
What are the dos and don'ts of finding a job in Montenegro?
First thing to know is that applying for jobs in MN is *nothing* like applying for jobs in the more economically advanced parts of Europe. If there is legislation or common-sense practice on any or all areas of recruitment and selection and ... Read More
Your best business development ideas in Montenegro
Something in leisure and tourism would make sense since the country is currently under-the-radar for most (partly due to the relatively poor transport links with the rest of Europe). Read More

some things are hard-wired into our DNA, our very soul, there can be no adaptation on those things ... just thinly masked frustration ;) It will never be acceptable - we just learn to hide our disappointment (in public).If you so dissapointed that ... Read More

My only real culture problem is TIME. When i say I am going to do something I mean I am going to do it NOW. In MNE then 'now' seems to mean at some vague time in the future. If someone says they will be there at a certain time ... ... Read More
english language school by kieksie
Good day I was wondering how many english language schools are in Montenegro and where i can find a list to forward my resume. Will appreciate Thanks Carissa Stamenkovic
I sent my resume to all the schools in MNE some years ago, I have a degree and masters (so work permit is no problem) and I have the CELTA, and have taught English at university level ... and not one of them even had the courtesy to respond. I hope ... Read More
Retiring in Montenegro by wagnersliszt
I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask all the usual questions (promise I am reading through previous threads) but I really need to speak to expat Brit retirees living in Montenegro. Just people who have bought a home there to live. No one who ...
I just got back from Montenegro (made mistake of going in August when it was just TOO hot). It was a lot cooler in Cetinje, Budva and Kotor though .. easily 6-7 C lower than in Podgorica. For culture and music and internet and food .. you have a ... Read More
Buying Agricultural land in Montenegro by MerseyJohn
Hello everyone I'm new to this forum. Im interested in buying land in the Lustre Peninsula to build my own home. The land I've looked at is in an agricultural zone, I've been told permission would be granted in this type of zone for ...
160 000 euros for a little over an acre .. that seems a little expensive ... but a great location (which I presume is what you are paying for). I think it is probably targeted at non-domestic purchasers ... a Montenegrin could get you a better ... Read More
Getting married.
I would marry a Montenegrin lady just for the sheer joy of being married to her .. the visas might be a bonus :) Read More

Hi Andrew I never received ANY responses from ANY of the schools I wrote to in MN. After I had that accident I ended up teaching back in the UK (both at a local university and at Inlingua). I soon got bored of the latter, it was a nice enough place ... Read More
Public transportation in Montenegro by Armand
Hi all, What do you think about the means of transportation in Montenegro ? Is the network of means of transportation well developed? What modes of transport are available? Do you use them? How much is a fare? Are they relatively ...
My daughter was there a few months ago and I can report that passenger trains are SEVERELY restricted - pretty much the only place you can go is back to Beograd. She had to uses buses which were infrequent but serviceable although the roads were ... Read More

I sprained my ankle and twisted my knee in a 'mountaineering incident' in the French Alps .. so I ended up back in the UK for treatment. So, I'm now limping around with a stick (trying to pretend that I'm Dr House). A university here grabbed me ... Read More

Another question: where in MNE (preferably with relative ease of access to Podgorica) is cooler in summer? I see it has been in the high 30's all week (compared to 18C-19C in England where we are getting a rubbish summer). Once it gets above 25-30C ... Read More

Thank you for your replies. Yes, International House was one of those I wrote to (on several occassions) but received no response. I'll be arriving in Montenegro soon (I'm touring Europe first) ... then I'll do some personal calling. If I get no ... Read More
