Bosnia and Herzegovina for me...





… realizing that it is safe to travel here, let it be young or old, male or female, group or solo.

… walking the historical town of Mostar and reliving the history cease my longing.

… embracing the grandeur of Ottoman influence that colours this country.

… sipping a Bosnia coffee with Ćevapi while watching passerby at sunset *smile*.

… framing the old town, the people and the past that weaved the present.

… where best portraitures are captured; enveloping the past, the determination and their hope.

… finally understanding that it was never about the countries pinned, but about them; the people.

… learning that to excel in the future, one need to understand, embrace and appreciate the past.

… a wake call to love thy neighbor.

… accepting that any amount of days staying here is never enough for this beautiful country - Bosnia and Herzegovina.
