November 2006


The forum is here

The forum feature was added to this site. The reason for it was I won’t be able to post as much as I like and I don’t have the most up-to-date, useful, and interesting information to add to this website as I don’t live in Sarajevo nor plan to return anytime soon. 

The forum, thus, will be a place for readers to participate, share their wisdom, and recommend tips.

And that’s it for now.

Have you enjoyed the video? Ok, good! Now seat back, relax and get ready for a dose of reality as "Bosnia and Herzegovina is not as singularly idyllic as the video below shown," said another blogger who happened to blog this same video. There is nothing wrong with canoeing along the Una or Neretva river, sipping whine in fancy restaurants, or roaming around the Old Town, snapshooting pictures like a passing by tourist–which I did plenty. But I think to get more out of your trip to Bosnia, you should flip a page or two to learn a bit more about the country’s history and culture.

Added: CNN says the darnest thing! As of October 30th, 2006, St. Louis is the most dangerous city in USA. 

St. Louis was the town which marked the beginning of Lewis and Clark’s discovery, an expedition which led to the US’s expansion westward, forever changing American history.

 The same courageous and adventurous  spirit also served as the foundation in two American literature classic favorites: "Huckleberry Finn" and "The Adventure of Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain.
