Serbia's Ambassador to the World

Bringing the truth about Serbia to the world

About

Serbia’s Ambassador to the World is the first, ever, dedicated public relations effort for Serbia. It exists only to change the false and, misleading poor image that has been foisted on Serbia by powers with a larger world agenda. Serbia’s Ambassador has one purpose only: to bring the truth about the Serbian people to the world by posting true stories from real people who have found out by personal experience what Serbs are really like.

Objectives

We want people abroad to:

° Think positively about Serbs and Serbia
° Get a better understanding of Serbia and Serbian people
° Travel to Serbia
° Do business with Serbian companies
° Invest in Serbia

We want Serbian people to:

° Keep a sense of national pride
° Profit from a better national image
° Stay in Serbia (and Serb expats to move back to Serbia)

About Karl Haudbourg

I am a French widower with a young child. I started this website in December 2008. I moved to Belgrade from France with my daughter in 2009, after my dear wife died. I chose Serbia as our new home because I love Serbia, and Serbian people.

Because it hurts me to see the negative image of Serbs and Serbia in the world today, I decided to try to change that image back to what it it once was, or, even better, to what it has never been but ‘should’ have been. If the whole world knew Serbia, the whole world would love Serbia.. You can contact me directly using this contact form, or feel free to give me a call on my mobile phone at +381 65 466 45 92. You can also connect with me on twitter and Facebook.

    People should invest in Serbia but friends of Serbia should also invest in this site — you need a "donate" button. I'm sure this is costing you a lot money and I, for one, would like to make sure you can keep going indefinitely!

      Thanks Anna. Yes, you' were right we needed a "donate" button. It's done.

    This is already my third spring in Belgrade – I just love Serbia! I try to build the bridge between Serbia and Estonia, on different areas (business, culture, activities of NGO's).
    I find your site very inspiring. I agree 100% with the objectives

    Great job! It really helps changing the image of Serbia in foreigner's eyes, I think. I hope it will bring good to your daughter and you too. I suppose that many people contacts you before coming to Serbia or Belgrade, so I think it would be a great idea to help them maybe by offering free guided tours around city center, or something like that. That way they could meet the country and people as well. There are many young people in Serbia who speak foreign languages very well, they could help… Wish you all the best

    Bonjour Karl, je suis vraiment très, très émue et le seul mot que je peux te dire c'est " merci ". Quelle belle image tu donnes de la Serbie. Si j'ai bien compris, nous avons un peu le même combat, faire connaître la Serbie, par sa beauté, sa culture, ses traditions, son peuple…et faire revenir les jeunes dans les campagnes où il y a une réelle chance d'avenir. Oui la Serbie est belle.
    Je vais voir comment je peux faire un don pour t'aider a gérer ce site extraordinnaire.

    Embrasses ta petite princesse et à bientôt.
