GUIDE
Urban life
With Europe's youngest population and many international students, it's not hard to see why Pristina is one of the liveliest capitals in the Balkans. Between cozy cafes in the city center and romantic jazz bars located near historical monuments you can spend a very great time. A visitor spending a day in the newest capital of Europe should take in a macchiato before walking around some of the interesting places, old cultural objects and bars . Start the day at 7 in the morning with a famous Prishtina macchiato in a simple neighborhood cafe, have another one in the centre, and end it with a drink according to the tastes of the evening.
Culinary appetite
Dairy, meat, and bread are essential staples in the Kosovo diet and fruits and vegetables. Dishes vary from winter to summer, and vegetables such as the famous Kosovo tomatoes and cucumbers are consumed during the summer while pickles are plated up in the winter. Traditional food in Kosovo, such as flija, pies, stuffed peppers, kebabs, bureks, and sarma, are typical across all regions, with slight variations from one region to another. No wonder tasting the exceptional Kosovo cuisine and local Kosovo wine is one of the top things to do in Kosovo while on a trip here.
Living expenses.
The cost of food in Kosovo depends on what you eat, but being one of the cheapest countries in Europe, the food is correspondingly cheap. You can enjoy a meal for hardly a few Euros, a Coke or Pepsi for 1.5 Euro or even a beer. A 3-course meal at a mid-range might cost you anywhere between 15 to 25 Euros. A kilogram of apples costs around half a Euro, while a bottle of midrange wine costs 4 or 5 Euros. Combine that with the cheap cost of traveling in Kosovo, and you have the perfect place for a budget-friendly stay!
