Let me share my almost empty pool in Serbia I found while following a guy from Poland

I love this. The same thing happens in the smaller cities in Macedonia, but in Skopje, it’s always packed. Greetings from a neighbor

How is that possible? I live in a city of 250,000 and we only have 4 pools. On weekdays, they’re all full with school swim classes, and the rest of the time it’s for triathlons, clubs, and lessons. Don’t you have school swimming mandatory there?

@Hux
It’s not mandatory, but schools do take students swimming at least once a week. Usually early in the morning

We also have a swim club and a water polo club. They just use the pool a couple of times a week for about an hour each time

@Clay
That’s wild. At our largest pool, even one swimming club takes up 10 hours a week, and there are several clubs like that

The gym is right below on the first floor and it’s busy all the time. I mean packed! It’s like people are allergic to cardio
