A family from Belgrade who visited Zenica as a tourist experienced something they will remember for the rest of their lives.
Namely, spouses Marijana and Teodor with their children decided to visit Zenica during their trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina. They parked their vehicle in one of the parking lots in the city center and went for a walk to explore everything Zenica has to offer. However, they had no idea what a surprise awaited them when they returned to their car.
When they returned after an extended walk, they expected a parking ticket because they exceeded the time they had paid for parking. But instead of a fine, they found a message behind the front wiper. An unknown person noticed that their car was a potential candidate for a fine and decided to intervene in the kindest way possible.
“Dear friend. Since you are from Serbia, I didn’t want your vacation to be spoiled by a small inconvenience. Namely, you forgot to pay for the parking, so I paid for the parking for the whole day. The parking service wanted to write you a ticket and I prevented it. Dear friends, enjoy Zenica,” it says on a piece of paper.
The residents of Belgrade are delighted with this gesture, but, as they say, they are only sorry for one thing.
“My husband paid for parking for 2 hours, and we really liked Zenica, so we stayed much longer and totally forgot about parking and that we should pay for extra time. When we were going back to the car, we only had a minute or two before we got to the car we remembered that we forgot to pay extra for parking and we were expecting a fine. About twenty meters away we see something behind the front wiper and we were convinced that it was a fine. However, we were greeted by a very pleasant message. I guess someone noticed that someone from the parking lot service wants to write a ticket, so that, believe it or not, that someone who is absolutely unknown to us, would prevent us from getting a ticket and pay for parking for the whole day.
What to say? I’m only sorry that he didn’t leave us a contact, at least to thank him if he doesn’t want money, but no, he didn’t leave anything as a contact. Here, if by some miracle he reads this now, Marijana and Teodor with their children from Belgrade would like to thank him. Bosnians, wonderful people!”, is the post of this family that became a hit on social networks.
Many in the comments praised the people of Zenica and called Bosnians and Herzegovinans one of the kindest people in the Balkans.
